What Makes This Trade Great: NVTS and the Art of Riding the Wave

Hey traders,
It’s Barrie Einarson here with another edition of What Makes This Trade Great, and today we’re diving into a picture-perfect momentum play: $NVTS.
Let me set the scene. It’s 10:19 AM and I get an alert on NVTS at $5.25. Right away, I saw it had potential, but what it turned into? That was something else.
I’m often asked,
“Barrie, how do you stay in a trade longer?”
Well, today’s trade is the answer: ride the wave.
📊 The Trade Setup
NVTS popped up on my scan and had all the right ingredients—volume, setup, and that go-now feel. I entered at $5.25, and from there, it was just a matter of trusting the wave.
As it climbed, you better believe I was managing the trade actively—but not over-managing. I didn’t panic-sell on every red candle. I watched the trend. I let it breathe.
🚀 The Move
Before it even thought about pulling back, NVTS hit a high of $7.13. That’s a massive move in a short time.
Now, would I have taken some profits on the way up? Of course. Probably around that orange bar you’ll see on the chart—a sign of stalling. But the key lesson here is don’t bail too early.
🧠 The Mindset
Too many traders cut their winners short because they’re afraid of giving back gains. But that fear can cost you more than a minor pullback ever will.
When you’ve got a strong trend and a clean setup, your job is to ride it. Let the trade prove it’s over—don’t assume it is.
Final Thought
NVTS wasn’t just a good trade—it was a great example of what happens when you trust the process.
Scanners do the heavy lifting to surface quality trades, but how you manage the trade—that’s where the magic happens.
Stick with the winners. Ride the wave. Stay disciplined.
See you in the trading room.
