AMD small gap up from yesterday with 9 and 20 EMA's moving curling up. Wanted a move up then pull for QPB or 1st pullback buy. Got a small move after the pullback dipped below 20 EMA , then help 9 EMA but a bit wicky and not breaking through VWAP. Took 1/2 at 167.68 and 166.68. After taking 1/2 for $, ,oved stop up to entry. Didn't want to get stopped out on a single candle so let it go a couple more seconds.

1. 1st pullback buy
2. Volume: Yes
3. MA's: Upward, just reclaimed the 9 EMA before entry.
4. Trend?: Yes, curling 9 ad 20 EMA on daily.
5. J/S: Entered 166.8 vs. 165.8 (9 EMA at the time), ideally break to 168's. 1.0 risk to 1.2 reward.

Thoughts: Is this a good setup up? I wanted BZFD but missed working out a good size and risk. This was slightly forced. I need to get away from the FOMO and forcing. Forcing and lack of patience would get me later in the day.

Grade: D. Forcing, still not sure about appropriate risk/stop levels.
