$AI - Target 1 HitVery convenient, I know... NYSE:AI bullish during an AI hype. But one way or another, regardless of the recent popularity AI has garnered, the tone of the message I'd like to convey today is that the charts knew at least 2 months before the retail trading industry (and perhaps even some institutions) that this hype was a possibility.
There's never a sure thing in the markets. Never. No one holds a crystal ball, no matter how many Nobel Prizes they've won or how many lines they can draw on a chart. That's why risk management is the central piece in trading.
However, there's a point to be argued, a point which I'll always stand for: charts, supply & demand, technical analysis—they allow you to detach yourself from opinions, fundamentals, tips, and macroeconomic brainiac knowledge.
They enable you to quantify a market instance where the odds are in your favor, where you want to expose yourself to the possibility of something like what's happening with AI, happening and benefiting you greatly... all while ensuring your trading account remains alive if it does not happen.
This market serves as a good example. This 100% technical analysis-based trigger emerged 4 months ago, and yesterday Target 1 was hit.
Should you take partial profits and hedge against the possibility of a reversal? Or trail the confirmed uptrend? Let your risk aversion profile guide you.
