First Execution: VWAP fade strategy. Good entry after I got confirmation that it was holding under VWAP but consolidating tightly instead of downtrending. Quick exit when it broke above VWAP for a small loss. Entered with small size which helped me from a PnL perspective
Second execution: Dip bought an uptrend when it broke above VWAP. This was a fakeout and it quickly turned against me. I struggled to exit quickly and my loss was bigger than it should have been. In quick and out quick would've been smarter than in quick then greedy to get a great fill on the way out. Another example of not following my typical VWAP strategy, and mother market made me pay.
