A qualitative run-through of every trade from 2025-12-22: setups, thought process, and outcomes.

Running P&L for 2025-12-22

Today was a solid day for me, with FJET dominating my trading. The stock, part of the aerospace and defense sector, was in play early on, and I managed to capitalize on some nice moves, though not without some bumps along the way. The tape showed a lot of volatility, typical for this name, especially considering it gapped down slightly at the open.

I started with a long position in FJET at 14.79, looking for a quick bounce off what I thought was a solid support level. Unfortunately, it didn’t hold as I had hoped. The stock pulled back quickly, and I exited at 14.40 for a loss of $510. The sellers were aggressive right after my entry, and it became clear the buyers were not stepping in as I anticipated. The 1m9 and 5m9 were both below my entry, indicating a lack of support.

After that initial setback, I took another long in FJET at 15.64. This time, it played out much better. I saw a strong bid coming in, and the stock pushed up to 16.06 before I exited, locking in a gain of $679. The 1m9 and 1m20 were both providing solid support, and the momentum was there, allowing for a nice scalp trade.

Riding the momentum, I entered again at 16.28, where I spotted a bull flag setup. The stock pushed through, and I was able to exit at 16.58 for a profit of $403. The 1m9 held well, and it felt like the stock was building energy for further moves.

Following that, I executed a classic breakout at 16.80. The stock was breaking above a recent high, and I was able to exit at 17.78, netting $472. The tape showed strong bids holding up, which gave me the confidence to take that trade.

However, I then took a misstep with a washout long at 16.87. The stock initially looked like it was reversing, but it quickly turned against me, and I had to cut for a significant loss of $2,167. The sellers were staying heavy, and I realized the strength I thought I saw was just a trap.

I bounced back with another bull flag setup at 15.86, where I entered and exited at 16.07 for a gain of $483. The stock was showing some nice consolidation before breaking out again.

Later in the day, I took a scalp trade at 17.85, and it ran up nicely, allowing me to exit at 18.81 for a $1,130 gain. The tape was really moving in my favor, and the bids were stacking up nicely.

As the day progressed, I entered at 19.50 for a parabolic squeeze. I exited at 20.28, making $315. The stock was clearly in a strong uptrend, and I was able to capitalize on that momentum.

However, I then attempted another bull flag at 19.55, but it didn’t hold. I had to exit at 19.10 for a loss of $570. The action was choppy, and the sellers came back in hard, which I didn't anticipate.

I managed to recover slightly with a washout long at 17.73, exiting at 18.03 for a $532 gain. The stock had dropped sharply, and I saw a quick opportunity to jump in on the reversal.

Finally, I took another washout long at 18.74, exiting at 19.39 for a gain of $443. The stock was showing resilience, and I was able to ride that wave to close out my trading day.

What I did well: I capitalized on momentum trades effectively, especially with the classic breakout and parabolic setups.
What I did poorly: Misjudged the washout long, leading to a significant loss.

Trading grade: B+ — solid execution on the winning trades, but some misreads on the washout setups.

Looking forward to tomorrow.
