Aug 20 - AXP
The first chart shows how AXP was trapped in a channel for the last week or so. I noticed that yesterday so I placed an alarm near the top and another one near the bottom of the channel.
The second chart shows how I executed the trade in the 5min time frame. I basically placed a buy order a few cents above the ORH (which matched the top of the channel) and my stop loss was the low of the previous bar. I set my target at the 38% fib extension drawing the lines from the bottom to the top of the channel, which made sense to me since that was the range in play.
