Trade entry date / price: 30 Mar 2022 / $370
Price at this post: $352.45

Update / Reasoning: With today's gap down, QQQ is pretty close to my price target of $350. So, per my trading plan, I'm going to take profits here. If filled at the exit order, this trade will yield about a 25% return on risk.
