Indeed there was a confluence of two setups here, and some lovely momentum to confirm it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exit was a little less straightforward as it all went a bit pear-shaped at the top. It&#8217;s easy to look at trades like this and think we&#8217;ve missed out. But I find it keeps me more sane if I look on the bright side. Rather than bemoan the loss of thirty cents extra profit had I nailed the top, I choose to celebrate making more than a grand in about fifteen minutes. Anyway, picking tops is a mug&#8217;s game. It&#8217;s all about the easy middle. Low stress plus low risk plus reasonable profit equals an easy and happy life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope everyone had a good week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I mentioned last week that QCOM has been on and off my core list over the years.
