Pivot High

QQQ update and TraderHank’s trade in XOM

The market gaped up big time this morning leaving Friday’s high behind and establishing a new 5 minute uptrend.  Basically a gap and go day if played you should have had a home run early this morning.  My play was in XOM long which gaped up with the market clearing 3 days of consolidation with room to move above.  I had two add and reduce areas which greatly enhanced my profit on the play.  To be honest, my management was perfect, textbook!  This was a feel good trade for me, it takes work to get to this point, but the satisfaction you feel is awesome!  A trader calls it “Silent Applause”.   Here is the chart on my play in XOM…
