I don’t know what it is with me and my love/hate relationship I have with Netflix (NFLX). I’ve had some of my best trades come from it, but then there was the chance that I had to add it to my long-term account 5 or 6 years ago when it was in its $20’s and decided against it. But even though I’ve sworn that stock off numerous times due to the unusual irritation and frustration that it can cause for me over other stocks, I still keep coming back to it time and time again.
I shouldn’t view NFLX as if it has some kind innate human qualities that causes me to view it in “me vs. NFLX” kind of a way. But the truth is, its irregular and often sporadic behavior always creates a feeling of distrust between me and it, and when I do have gains, I’ll more times than not, take the profits immediately than give it proper room to run.
With that said – I’ve posted my chart on NFLX below and how it looks to me and why I’m trading it (just had to get all that off my chest apparently).
Here’s the Netflix (NFLX) Trade Setup.
