Trading journal october 10th 2023

Hi Everyone, I didn’t post for the last days as I was really busy with personal projects.

The stock market stayed strong in the last days and managed to stay positive even with negative news (Strong job report and now the Israel-Hamas war).

Today the market started very strong, the Nasdaq was up 1,3% early in the session but the gain faded and the Nasdaq closed with a 0,6% gain.

My portfolio is doing very good and still holding META, VRT and SMCI. I decided to sell CAMT for a small loss as I found it was stalling and didn’t brake out on strong days.

Yesterday I decided to buy DUOL on the base breakout (Nice double bottom pattern. I closed the day with a nice cushion. DUOL tryied to advance more today but ended the day with 0,77% gain.

Today I decided to buy IONIQ a strong stock since the beginning of the year. I bought this one on the breakout of its base. This one managed to get a gain of 9,29% on above average volume. I just got a portion of the daily gains but its anough for a small cushion. As usual I will keep a tight stop loss on this one.

I’m now over 80% invested and will probably wait for a pullback to add more as the market was up for a few days in a roll now.

The Nasdaq seems to be at a resistance right now and will probably take a pause in the next days and provide more opportunities.

Hope it helps.
