Reading the Tape
There were several times that I was able to pick an entry off the tape setting up the tight risk entries. The change in character as it came back above 183 looked very strong and help me think that the LoD was put in.
Trade Management

Trade Notes
• I took this long as it broke 184.40 the most recent all time high. I stayed small because of the time of day and I was protecting from a hard pull back off the new all time high. I started to work it long again after it flushed to VWAP and started to break 184 again.
• I tried playing for another flush after the new HoD and 185.20 started to look like resistance. This mentally puts me on the wrong side for next trade as I now expect 185 to hold and 185.20 to break.
• I am struggling in these areas of consolidation especially when that consolidation range is 10 to 15 cents. I could have bailed out the firs trade with some patience. But, this could have dumped 185 much faster that it did. I would say that I added to that long way to early.
• A decent set up with a good add at .07 as I had seen it hold a few times on the tape. I did need to hold the starting trade a little longer as it did give the flush below .90 I was targeting.
• It looks like I hit the momentum right and it looks like I pushed my luck trying to add in resulting in a small loss.
• This was fairly well managed as long looking for a run up from 185 on the momentum. But, I did get a bad fill on taking a partial that was meant to reduce avg price a ended up taking that part of the trade flat. I did add in on the second long and 185.20 was holding.
• Nice momentum. I should have put on a full tier here.
• This failed about as quick as it looked like it was going to move away from the SMA.
• Ugh.. there was so much more here. I had set up in here with some larger postions taking quicker wins and not giving others enough room to get started. I protected the wins through here. But, I left a lot on the table doing it.
• I am wondering why I did not trigger this two minutes earlier?? That is a set up I look for.
• We had a little bit of higher volume wick below 183 and I started playing this long after it started to bounce from there. This is where I can increase my profits is trying to play something like this a little less tight as it moves away from a bottoming pattern.
• There was not a trade here. But, I cannot remember what I was seeing on the tape at the time or maybe the spike up to 184 a few minutes prior looked to be setting up for lower high and a continuation of the downtrend.
• I added late and cost some profit here. But, it was a good set to look for 184 to hold.
• Ugh, this is bad part of playing momentum if you are late to the game.
• Gun slinging here at 184?
• Finished with an easy momentum short that I could have worked better and stayed bigger for the run.

This was fairly well managed as long looking for a run up from 185 on the momentum. But, I did get a bad fill on taking a partial that was meant to reduce avg price a ended up taking that part of the trade flat. I did add in on the second long and 185.20 was holding.
