Reason for trade: Overextended from prior days' highs.
Entry: Weak signal after HOD
Exit: I got shaken out by two dead cat bounces. Flushed right after exit.
Improve on: Setting up clear stop (in this case, HOD) and do not trade P/L.

This was a perfect gap and fill trade.
You entry was really good and with a stop loss set few cents above the HOD you would have a killer trade and then even readd at the break of $96.
