I bought this one on Tuesday and it's already just dipping away... anywhere in the red is a good place to start a position.

On the far right of the chart is my Average (Grey) Current Target (Green), and Next Level to add (Red) Percentage to target is from my average.
I start every position with 1% of my account and build from there as needed and as possible.
I am not your financial advisor. Watch my setups first before you jump in… My trade set ups work very well and they are for my personal reference and if you decide to trade them you do so at your own risk. I will gladly answer questions to the best of my knowledge but ultimately the risk is on you. I will update targets as needed.
GL and happy trading.
Inverse Cup and Handle play begs $26 the week of April 19~23This is a pure technical chart play, inverse cup and handle (now becoming my favorite play!).
Previous lows Apx $27 mid December tapped again in the last week of March 2021. Currently forming the inverse handle to a gigantic cup, if she turns, I think she crashes $27 through $26 and below, so I think long puts are best here.
21 May 21 $26 PUTS at apx $0.42
Profit-taking starts probably the week of April 19~23 at 200%.
If the stock needs to reach higher before completing the handle, the extra expiration time will allow your trade some buffer to theta decay.

$ZTO Long Term PlayZTO looking nice on the weekly and Daily time frame nice flag and a nice 5 wave structure on it also, i see a some sort of low being set as it did bounce of the .5 but not holding will result going down for the .618 where then it will be a strong buy as it be a nice demand zone with lots of support, looks to be a long term play leaps are cheap nd affordable indicators also show sign of reversal looking nice!
Potential Reversal?We were stopped out of our previous ZTO trade but we might have another opportunity here. It looks like the stock might reverse back into the previous range. You can see net volume beginning to trend higher as well. As long as the 26 area holds and china stocks stay strong broadly zto might be a good risk reward setup
