From watchlist: "...$DD still in play testing 70$ prmkt"
Stop: 70.85$/ 70.40/70$
R: 5
FINALLY my fist decent trade live. The disaster in $KSS earlier in the day, totally freaked me out. I left the machine, went to the café for a cookie in order to cool myself down and pick myself up. No bullshit trades anymore, that was the plan.
When I got back, my allert for $DD went of and it gave me a nice double top at previous days HOD. Shorted the break and immediately added into momentum.
First two scales at support, add against .40s and closed the first position when it started to fail at 70.20$
Next trade was a short against 70.40$ on a tight stop and three adds. First scale into 70.20$ and close of the position above 70$, because this was a critical level and buyers showed up on the bids. Last trade was the break below 70$ with stop above and small size. Bell was close and volume picked up, so I bailed out quickly.
The intitial entry was a tad too low and I've been behind all day so I could not get size into the trade. But I finally sticked to a stock and milked it for the entire run. What a relief.
