As this is an update to an earlier analysis, I’ll keep this one tighter and focus more specifically on the current execution and structure.
Looking at the most recent pink box, we had a major consolidation phase running from April 2021 through to April 2026 — almost five years of sideways action.
During that period, the price moved broadly between ~$86 and ~$146. We did briefly test the ~$160 region on two separate occasions:
* 6th February 2026
* 24th February 2026
However, those breakout attempts initially failed.
We then experienced a pullback during the Iranian hostilities, but importantly, even during that correction, the price never broke structure below ~$132. The higher low remained intact throughout.
Following that geopolitical weakness, the price rapidly recovered back toward the top of the pink box before eventually producing a clean breakout.
Since then, we have seen a succession of strong blue daily candles. We then entered a pause phase, during which the daily candles turned grey for roughly a week and a half before rotating back to blue and continuing to push toward fresh all-time highs.
The stock is currently trading near all-time highs at ~$211.82.
This is currently one of my best-performing trades following the breakout move that occurred after the easing of hostilities with Iran.
If we continue trending higher, my plan is straightforward:
* wait for orderly 4H pullbacks
* allow the candles to rotate from grey back to blue
* and continue adding into the position as the trend develops higher
Entry trigger:
* Already entered
* Additional entries on 4H grey-to-blue pullbacks
Initial stop loss:
* Trailing stop loss using the latest 4H swing low
