QQQ (Nasdaq 100 tracking ETF) has hit the first target for a relatively minor but very quick (~4 hour) gain of 2.4%. Congrats that those that took it & booked full or partial profits here, especially if this was your first official day trade.

While swing trades & longer-term trend trades are the primary focus on Right Side Of The Chart, it is not unusal to see a swing trade hit one or more profit targets the same day the trade was entered. This usually happens with explosive chart patterns on individual stocks but at times of elevated market volatility such as we’ve had lately, with intraday swings of 3%+ such as we had today more the rule than the exception recently, an active swing trader might inadvertenly find themselves making the occassional day trade as the markets & individual stocks move 3-5% or more within a single trading session.

For those that did not book profits at T1, consider raising stops to protect profits. T2 (165.10), which I believe has a good chance of being hit soon, remains the final target at this time with the possibility of additional price targets to be added to this trade depending on how the chart develop throughout this week.
