Three trades, all shorts. First one was $15.36 profit, the other two were $20 profit and flat.
First trade: I shorted the first "pullback", because although the stock had gapped up, it had faded right after. I've learned that in this case the pops can be shorted so I tried it. I scaled out half with a profit, but the other half got stopped out at the entry price.
Other two trades: after I had been stopped out and I saw the stock dropping again, I shorted again and tried scaling into a position. When the stock price didn't drop right away, I exited some of it flat and kept the other half in case the stock drops later. It did...
I'm quite satisfied with these trades.
