Reason for entry: Post DoE and after a large build.
Comments on the trade: Entered (too early:15:31) for the first trade with 2 contracts and sold 1st one rapidly ($25), the move retraced and took me off (at scratch).It is a shame as the move down continued steadily for another 20 minutes to reach 62.825
Re-entered short with 1 contract but lacked the confidence and moved once again the stop too close and got taken out.
I am not sure whether it is my first day back trading live but this was not a great day.
