started with shorting 1000 shares, then started running up and I shorted 3000 extra shares along the way averaging out, then it tanked later in the day.
I'm Happy with this trade.

Totally agree with Marks comments here. There is no logic behind this trade and it is a sure way of blowing up your account real quick.

Dangerous play. What was your stop? Your final 2 adds were great as you had a clear stop of highs on day however initial position ran against you hard (unless that was your plan and was a partial feeler).
I strongly suggest you trade as real as possible during sim so bad habits are not enforced as once emotions are a part and it's cold hard cash running against you, you stick the plan.
the advice is unsolicited I know, & I do apologize for it, however I've seen so many people blow up accounts because they treated the sim like play money versus treating it like the real deal and your stats today were awesome.
