Trade Review: META

Partial exit. Position open.

Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) was identified using our custom Double Bottom screener. We entered on September 14, 2026. On September 23, 2026 we sold 17% of the position at our profit target, locking in a +14.19% gain on that portion.

Setup

The thesis required the second low to hold above the first, a sign that the sellers in control at the first low were no longer in control at the second.

Entry

We entered META on September 14, 2026 at $660.31.

Initial Stop

No fixed stop price was set. The position is managed with a dynamic stop that trails the trade while the trend holds.

Target

The trend decides the exit on the core position. The trade needed to recover and extend away from the second low, and it did, reaching the level where we took a portion off at our profit target.

Result

We sold 17% of the position at our profit target on September 23, 2026 for a +14.19% gain on the shares sold.

% Realized Gain/Loss

+14.19%

Position Status

Partial. 83% of the position remains open, managed with the trailing stop.

Lesson

The double bottom did its job. Taking a portion off at the target banks part of the move and lowers the risk on the rest, while the remaining shares stay with the trend.
