MU CALL +$11.48 (+115F) in 65m — bands tightened then squeezed higher
Profit was +$11.48 from 10:40am $646.70 to 11:45am $658.18 as volatility got squeezed before the push. MU triggered on a clean volume anchor and follow-through with the key momentum/volume confirmation: DI+ won at 10:45am and volume spiked as price reclaimed $653.36 (VPOC/TPOC) at 10:45am.
MU’s 10:40am CALL at $646.70 paid $11.48 into the 11:45am exit at $658.18, a 65-minute hold that captured 57% of the available move after a $20.25 max run to $666.95 at 11:25am. Z3 flipped bullish at 10:50am, two bars after entry, and stayed statistically significant for two bars, with peak Z3 hitting 1.54 at 11:20am. The move had real confirmation: bands were already expanding from 10:15am to 10:35am, a bull volume anchor from 10:25am sat below price in the cellar with no overhead resistance line, DI+ took control at 10:45am on active volume, VPOC and TPOC were both reclaimed at $653.36 at 10:45am, and MU finally got range extension above the IB high at 11:15am at $662.01 even without a Kijun flip. This was a clean entry with basically no adverse dip after 10:40am before the trade started paying, though it did give back $8.77 from the peak into the exit.
Verdict: clean and worth the hold, but not especially efficient since the best money came before the exit and a chunk got handed back.
