I started with a delayed attempt at opening drive on this series. I took the quick win and tried again when I shouldn't have took a hit on the pullback. I started taking quick longs as it bounced off 27.25 at 27.50 and did not have the nerve to let this bounce around a little bit. But, I reclaimed with quick longs of .50, .75 and 28.00.

Trading Strategy
• Strong performance the last couple of days,
• Watch for retest gap and look for a long
• 27 or 27.50 are the areas of support to look for from yesterday
Reading the Tape

I have not been reading the tape that well. There are certain times that it seems you can see obvious points of change. But, these things seem to be changing on a dime or when tape was not showing any sort of support or resistance.
Trade Management

Trade Notes
• I started with a delayed attempt at opening drive on this series. I took the quick win and tried again when I shouldn't have took a hit on the pullback. I started taking quick longs as it bounced off 27.25 at 27.50 and did not have the nerve to let this bounce around a little bit. But, I reclaimed with quick longs of .50, .75 and 28.00.
• This was a far better opportunity to take it long. I felt like this was going to tap the SMA and move back into VWAP before it bounced. I was not open minded enough to see that both one-minute candles prior to my entry found solid support 28.21.
• I should not go long after 5 minutes of momentum as we start to test a level. I was playing for this to at least extend to 28 for a partial and hope that it would break 28 after a small pull back to my entry point. but, this was a FOMO trade after missing the short and watching this pull away.
• I triggered this short when this failed to reclaim .50. I was a little late after the rejection. I still got a quick move and a solid partial. I was set up to get the test of VWAP. Once I had the solid partial I lowered into .32 on the remainder and gave this almost 12 cents to play for the flush.
• I really like this set up on a strong stock. this is a set up that I should be bigger in most of the time. This will also take a little more patience than I have been giving trades recently.
• I shorted this into a short term down move as it rejected the SMA and tried to stay short until it moved back above with some strength. I only too a third off as this was coming the HoD and the logical to me at that time was for this to move into 29 not stop at 29.20. I gave back a little more than I needed to here because I only took of the third.
• This was a hack fest here. I have been trying to play .75 as a level a lot lately looking for the move back to the level of resistance. This would have been a better set up if I would have triggered at the tap of the SMA @29.60.
• This was a home run momentum short. I was just freaked out about what happened at .60 in the series of trades before this and bailed way to early. I am chasing nickels!!!
• A little bit of a VWAP support play on momentum. I was looking for this to break 29.50 again as this was starting to look like it may stay in a trend higher. However, I was quick to bail as the it rejected .50 due partial to a suspected lower high on the last spike.
• Right idea, really poor patience and execution here. I am trade these higher spreads without a lot of confidence.
• I flipped this from a long. There was something on the tape and the price action that led me to believe that this was losing strength above 28.50. But, I am pushing for tiny moves and that does have a higher chance of me blowing things like this up.
• I should have just tried to hold the first long here. I am getting a bit better at that. But, I do need to remember that is why I am taking quick partials is to cover the risk on the remainder, In this case, the one third partial at .66 would have left me a stop just below .50 living a very small lose and not as many liquidity fees.
• Foolish trading here. It did not extend lower. I should not have gone after this with five minutes of momentum already in the books.
• Wow, Late in the day p7l management.. stupid.. there was atone more here and it was easy to see. I am chasing nickels!!!
