Let's Add On
I had a good session this morning. With movement in my oldest long position, I added on to it. This was my first long after the big round of shorts and only a couple of those remain. How long before CLVS confirms the slide is over and stops out? Will I reverse and go long when that happens? Only time will tell!

Open Trades
While everything else about an open trade is established at entry, the ‘stop loss’ order will be adjusted periodically over the life of a trade. The idea is to move the stops at key price points and let the profitable trades keep running.
Such a slow day, I didn't even move any stops.
