How  I  Traded  $TWLO  For  +23.50%  in  5  Weeks

I had identified  $TWLO  on June 17th blog post as one of the 15 leading Growth Stock.  Market was correcting at that time and it was not the ideal time to take a position in the stock.  Market went into a  'Confirmed Uptrend'  as of July 6th and that was the signal to initiate a position on the stock.  That is how I  TIME  the market.  One must always buy something on a  'Follow Thru'  day according to Mr. William J O'Neal (Founder of Investors Business Daily).  Here are the details of the how  $TWLO  stock was handled for 5 weeks to attain a profit of  +23.50%. 

1. $TWLO position was taken at the market open on July 6th   'Follow Thru'  day at  $56.87.
2. Trade Plan was for a  +10%  profit target at  $62.56
3. Loss target was for - 4%  loss at  $54.60
4. Profit target was met on July 17th (8 trading days) and 1/2 the position was closed out to mitigate the risk.
5. Earnings was on August 7th.  Held the 1/2 position to benefit from earnings spike.  The last 2 earnings on Feb 14th and May 8th, the stock had gained more than  +20%  within days of earnings release.
6. Trade plan for the rest of the 1/2 position was to close out at +20%  from the high on July 17th when the first 1/2 position was harvested for a  +10% gain.
7. August 9th - 2 days after the earnings release, the entire position was closed for  +20%  gain at $78.00
8. Total cumulative profit in the trade was  +23.50%  in 5 weeks.
9. For comparative purposes, the leading index  $QQQ  did  + 4.96%  in the same time frame.
10. $TWLO  Out Performed the leading index  $QQQ  by  4.7  times.

 $TWLO has attained a performance of  +166%  since the  'Follow Thru'  day on Feb 14th.  Stock has gone up from $29.09  on Feb 14th to  $77.49  on August 10th (6 months).

Growth stocks have the momentum because institutions are the ones that drive the price of the stock higher.
