Very similar play to QQQs.
AAPL closed to LOD the previous day and lost the all-important S1=$120 daily support level premarket, looking vulnerable. S2=$118.3, then S3=$116.5
Premarket plan was to short the opening pop to S1=$120 or even better R1=premarket resistance pivot=$121, expecting rejection there (as buyers would trim) and a sell-off back to S2=$118.3 at a minimum.
Played it properly. Got short filler size at the pop to R1=$121, risking tight stop above the level, stayed with filler as AAPL showed relative strength vs market and held above S1=$120 + VWAP, so didn't give me confidence to add more.
Stopped out per plan. Papercut.
Didn't revisit it as never made it to next resistance to base my risk.
