Bought 50 shares of SQM at 37.75

Trade ticket:

Transaction: Bought
Security: SQM
Quantity: 50 shares
Price: $37.75
Value: $1,887.00
Stop order: Yes @ $35.94
Target price: $43.00

Trade Note:

Great price.  Stock's been hammered lately, and it has shown strong support around 37ish.  Looking to sell into daily high during a sector rally.  Volatile though, and the news of 1bill cap expenditure may rub people the wrong way so put close stop loss, although maybe not close enough.  But I don't want it to stop out due to unexpected volatility so put it a bit farther than I like.

Hoping to sell within the next 1-4 days.
