I have been keeping an eye on AAOI and wanted to get in a couple of weeks ago but did not want to chase it. It has now pulled back and the last couple of days have been explosive. I took a one-third sized position yesterday (1/4/24) and added two times today to bring up to a full position.
The proper or traditional entry is yet to come as it breaks above the upper downtrend line of the Bull Flag. I like to get in as early as possible so that is why I took a small position yesterday as it looked to be confirming a reversal. Today is strong so I brought it up to full size. I may look to add even more on the next consolidation level. All TBD.
I have two stops. On todays add-ons it is just below today’s low. On the original buy it is below the Jan 3rd low.
Ideas, not investing / trading advice.

To be clear this was brought up to a full position on Fri. Jan 5th. (The notation arrow was not positioned well.)

I did not like this breakdown near end of day so I have closed this position for just over a 5% gain. Back on watch list.
