Running P&L for 2025-11-19

Day P&L: $+1716.58 | Total R: +3.77R

The morning opened with FRGT showing strong potential after a washout. I entered long at 0.95, taking advantage of a sharp drop that had already pushed the stock down over 3%. The tape was showing buyers stepping in as it approached the low of the day, and I saw a clear bounce off that level. The exit at 0.97 was quick but solid, capturing about 0.77R on the move. FRGT’s low float of 5.9M helped fuel the volatility, and I knew this name could move fast with the right catalyst.

Shortly after, I re-entered FRGT at 1.07 on a sub VWAP trap. The stock had dipped below VWAP but quickly reclaimed it, indicating a shift in momentum. The entry was tight, and I was out at 1.11 just minutes later, racking up another 0.70R. The volume was robust, and the stock had a noticeable increase in buying pressure, which I could see on the tape. This was a good moment, capitalizing on the quick back-and-forth that often characterizes these setups.

As the morning progressed, I saw FRGT pull back again, but it set up beautifully for another sub VWAP trap. I entered at 1.23, and this time the stock really took off, giving me an exit at 1.29 for a solid 1.64R. The tape was clean, with clear buying interest pushing it above recent highs. The action felt sustained, and with the market in a favorable state for tech stocks, I felt confident riding this wave.

Then came the first significant misstep of the day with SGBX. I took a long position at 5.41 during what I thought was a parabolic squeeze. The setup looked promising, and I anticipated a continuation through resistance. Unfortunately, the tape told a different story. The stock couldn’t hold above the key level and faded quickly, leading to a loss of over 6R. I should have recognized the weakness earlier; the selling pressure was evident, and I allowed the trade to turn against me without cutting it sooner.

I didn’t let that loss deter me. I quickly identified a washout long opportunity with SGBX after it dropped to 4.81. The stock had capitulated, and I entered as it began to recover, exiting at 4.93 for a nice 1.74R. The bounce was stronger than I expected, and I noted the volume increase as it reclaimed some ground. This helped restore some confidence after the earlier setback.

In the afternoon, I saw another chance with SGBX, this time entering at 5.84 on yet another washout long. The stock had pulled back sharply but then showed strong buying interest, pushing up to 6.00. This was a clean move, netting me 4.59R. The tape was much more cooperative this time, and I could see the buyers were committed to pushing it higher.

What I did well: I capitalized on the momentum shifts with FRGT and adjusted quickly after the initial loss with SGBX.

What I did poorly: I held onto the SGBX position too long during the parabolic squeeze, ignoring the signs of weakness.

Trading grade: B — solid execution on FRGT trades, but a notable error on SGBX that cost me.

Looking forward to tomorrow; I’ll be more vigilant about weakness on the tape.
