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.

UPS Possible Swing Top Update 2
We got a nice gap down at the open then spent most of the day below the 8 EMA but closed very close to it. I'd say we're just short of a confirmation, but today's price action is still constructive. However, I'm not ready to add to my position yet.
The Quarterly Earnings Report is next Thursday before the market opens, so I want to be out by the end of the day on Wednesday. In my opinion, Earnings Reports are unpredictable, and can cause a large reaction against you. If you want to hold onto your position, you need a hedge to protect yourself.
Because the Earnings Report is coming up soon, and we lose 2 trading days after tomorrow, I would appreciate a solid down day tomorrow. We'll see what happens.
