Original Plan
DOCU broke down below VWAP and bounced twice from 62.5. Shortly after it had a “build-up” 62.85 and 63 before breaking out above 63. My plan after seeing this was to long it on the pullback to 63 (63 was a technical level from yesterdays afternoon session).

Execution Notes
I got filled at 63.01 and set my stop at 62.80 – 5 cents below the “build-up” consolidation. I was watching the tape and it was having a hard time staying above 63. It failed and broke down, it leaked below the “build-up” consolidation and I got stopped out at 62.82.

Review
Although this trade didn’t turn out, the pattern that preceded it was bullish; it bounced from 62.5 (a level from yesterday) and it consolidated tightly against 63 before breaking out above it. I traded my plan but it simply didn’t work out.
