AMD was looking weak as it had room to move towards yesterdays low. I missed the initial breakdown as I was looking at other charts but felt confident and went short on the semi 3BP. It flushed nicely and exited at PT for a scalp.
The second trade was the breakdown of the newly formed LOD, but somehow my STP SHORT order got filled without it actually breaking the pivot. It did after a few minutes and gave a decent move downwards. I was a bit too conservative with moving my STP down, riding the 9 SMA so I ended up barely making money on the trade. This trade had a 30m and 15m aligned entry, but I guess I should have gone for the scalp anyway.
