These are real trades in real time with real money on the line. My goal is to share my real trading life. How I'm entering, managing, and exiting real swing trades. Sharing tactics, trade-offs, and emotions. A "swing trade" is a multi-day trade. I hope to educate traders who started their journey after I did. I also hope to meet some new friends.

ULTA looking bearish Update 2
The desire to exit today was strong with this one. 218.50 is both the 50% Fibonacci retracement as well as half the measured move for the Head & Shoulders pattern. So my 219 target seems like a good one. Stochastics are just at the 20% level so its not oversold quite yet.
But, price bounced off the 50 SMA today just after breaching it a little. We have a nice profit already if we got out near the 50 SMA, and there's only 2-3 weeks left on our option, so if we get a bounce tomorrow to go back up and test the bottom of the channel before continuing down, that might take several days which starts to become a Theta decay concern.
However, this pattern is so strong and the stochastics tell us we have some more room to the downside tomorrow, I fought the urge to lock in profits and decided to hold on for another leg down tomorrow and hit my original target.
