The current price of $33.41 is close to the 20-day low support level of $32.85. Therefore, entry was considered based on the judgment that a technical rebound attempt from this range is more viable than further downside.
If the current price of $33.41 holds above the support level of $32.85 without breaking, I will keep the upside potential open up to the resistance level of $38.62 and aim to take profit. However, if the $32.85 support level collapses and downside risk increases, I will immediately liquidate the position at the stop-loss price of $32.85.
RSI (14) stands at 30.3, approaching the oversold territory. The moving averages are in a non-bullish alignment, trading volume is 0.92 times the 20-day average, and the 7-day volatility (rate of change) is -3.4%.
At the time of entry, the current price of $33.41 was near the $32.85 support line (the 20-day low), and in conjunction with the oversold RSI(14) of 30.3, a technical rebound attempt was deemed valid. However, the actual result recorded a -10.9% loss, resulting in a FAILED verdict. Although the entry was approached with clear grounds—positive news and the $32.85 support line—it is regrettable that the decline in recent 7-day news volume to 44 articles (down from 76 articles in the previous 7-day period) and the overall weakening momentum of the theme were not sufficiently integrated as defensive factors.
This trade taught us that when using the expectation of a rebound near a support level as the basis for a purchase, if macro-momentum slowdown signals such as a falling trend in the theme's overall news volume overlap, the stop-loss criteria must be managed more strictly. In the next trade, we will apply conservative risk management by considering not only the reliability of the technical support level, but also the inflow momentum within the theme.
