Daily Report Card
-morning prep: A
-market prep: A
-stock prep: A
-level of focus: A

Rationale:
-NFLX gapping above earnings A/H high
-sweeper activity yesterday and today; yesterday it closed at highs

Trade Strategy:
-enter on a pullback/retest to or consolidation around 218.92 earnings A/H high, PMH or 316

How much risk should/did I take?
-822; 9% of NLV

Recap / Trade Management:
-NFLX made a push to 218.92 but failed to stay above it and pulled back to VWAP (SPY was pulling back around this time)
-price held around VWAP although it broke below it a few times
-as we traded sideways price failed to break below 318.50/65 and then quickly entered 3 tiers, during this time SPY was retracing towards VWAP; NFLX remained strong as SPY went on to make new intraday lows before reversing higher on the day
-upmove continued up until the 25k offer at 325 never printed and we small smaller couple 000s size sellers periodically step down on the offer

What did I do well?
-throttle up risk, i've mostly been trading 1 tier, but today I felt more prepared to enter 2-3 tiers on strong opportunities
-stay focused after taking the loss on NVDA
-use tape to scale out of the swing high (although I would have caught a nice re-entry if i stayed focused)

How could I have traded this better?
-stay focused on the best trades for the first 1hr; my focus bounces around to other symbols to quickly; after I got out of this name I began trading TSLA 4 mins later when this was the best opportunity on the day

What did the tape look like during the most important moments intraday?
-most important moment was the 45k offer at 320, that broke and held after seeing a bit of buying above the PMH (buyers showing up with a couple 000s size bids) - this was the major event; after this, price moved up to just above 321 very quickly with bidders buying over each other
-this was the event that set off the move and seeing the continued buying after consolidation was the reaction to the move
-325 resistance was the area that halted the move, price traded sideways up here and a lot of volume went off but the 25k at 325 never printed

Where could I have been responsibly bigger?
-my first entry and the pull back/flag pattern after price broke 321 (10:25-10:30)
-the 10-15m consolidation after price broke above 320 (there was 45k offer here that broke), price never broke back below this level so can literally buy so long as this level holds

Gain/loss relative to expected gain/loss:
-net gain of 214; +26%
-generally underperformed on this symbol given the move it made on this day
