[7 Sep] Update to NVDA Short
I didn't get stopped out of the trade, but I thought I should close the trade early for a few reasons: (1) The flush that I was anticipating did not happen despite market weakness and NVDA simply started consolidating, failing to break lower lows, (2) The indices are showing signs of bullishness, which may provide a better entry point for shorting again should NVDA rallies and hits resistance, (3) It's simply not ideal to keep a short trade for too low since it requires the borrowing of shares and the interest accumulates the longer you hold the trade. Closing the trade early might seem contrary to my belief that NVDA would likely see a correction in its valuation, but it's always important to check if your setups are working well and adapt to the current market conditions. Remember: you can have the right thesis, but with the wrong execution you will still LOSE money.
