The Entry: Trusting the AI

The alert on NTGR triggered at $27.04. From there, the play was simple: ride the wave. As long as the Wave stayed blue, the trend was intact, and that gave me the confidence to hold the trade as momentum pushed forward.

The Exit: Switching Timeframes

Eventually, a sell flag appeared. This is the moment I start confirming with a different view:

• On the 5-minute chart, the Wave still showed blue.
• But dropping down to the 2-minute chart, it turned orange—a clear warning of weakening momentum.

That switch in timeframe is key. It helps you spot early signs of reversal and exit with discipline before the move breaks down.

Why It Worked

• AI alert gave a strong entry point.
• The Wave kept me in the trade as momentum built.
• Timeframe switching protected profits when momentum slowed.

Final Thoughts

The Wave is about more than just entry—it’s your roadmap for trade management. Ride it while it’s blue, but always check multiple timeframes to catch the first signs of trouble. That’s how you turn a good trade into a great one.

Have a great weekend, and I’ll see you Monday.
