NA- There was a tightening spread on the HoD hold short on this. There was nothing that I could note as telling

Trade Notes
I did catch a tightening spread as this started to slow above 153. This set up the HoD resistance hold trade that I took small using 153.60 as the stop. This started work right away and put me at my current profit average leading me to take it off instead of holding until the target at VWAP.
