Not too long ago, I wondered if Noble Group's share price might hit $1.90. Read blog post here.
If you guess that I must have been waiting to sell at $1.90, you are right.
However, doing a bit of charting last night revealed that we might not see $1.90 although there is still a chance we could.
The declining 20dMA is now at $1.89 while trading volume has dwindled lately.
Today, it hit a high of $1.875 before closing at $1.865, forming a white spinning top (almost) in the process.
There is obviously some struggle between bulls and bears at this level.
Half an hour before the market closed, seeing how $1.875 presented a respectable resistance and is only three bids from $1.89, I decided to divest at $1.87, selling straight instead of queueing at $1.875.
That is 4 bids below $1.89 but it gives me a gross gain of 5% in less than a fortnight.
It seems that I have made another quick trade after the recent one with NOL.
Conditions are not easy for long traders in recent months.
Counter trend trading demands that I stay nimble footed and less greedy.
A 5% gain here and there? Why not?
I am still learning.

Hi AK71,
Can I confirm that you went for the quick trade based on the long white candle on 19th July?
I'm very new to all these, so I'd be grateful to get a glimpse of your inner mind :)

Hi RD,
You are right to say that the bullish engulfing white candle is a good signal to go long. However, I went in a bit earlier. See this:

Still learning. ;)
Hi AK71,
It's quite funny on hindsight :)
It looks to me that you rationalized yourself into a gamble... No offence.
I might be tempted to punt too after some wins, now I'm just beginning and still got enough "fear" to control myself.
Hehe.

Hi RD,
I was taking a chance and it is what the blogmaster of "Time to Huat" calls a "tikam". ;)
