Our AI flagged FOSL at $2.62, and the setup looked fantastic from the start. Price climbed steadily, only minor pullbacks, and the GoNoGo cloud stayed blue—all bullish signals. By the time we hit $3.07, this trade was looking picture-perfect.

Then, the market decided to test our nerves.
A flash crash came out of nowhere, wiping out stops and shaking traders out, only for the stock to rebound just as quickly. No clear news, no financing announcement—just a sudden drop and recovery. This is one of those moments where you realize: you can’t predict every curveball the market will throw.

The lesson here is clear—manage your risk, respect your stops, and understand that surprises happen. The best we can do is position ourselves smartly, follow our setups, and let the probabilities work in our favor.

Have a great weekend, everyone—see you Monday.
