Back below the major ascend. resistance line=upper boundary of channel sitting at R1=$230, and right in-front of S1=major daily support level/inflection point=$227. Break and hold below S1=$227, then it could go easily towards $215-220 area.
Premarket plan was to "short" the opening pop to yesterday's close=$228, risking max. stop $229=yesterday resistance pivot, expecting to break and start holding below S1=$227 for the move lower.
Traded my plan. Got short filler size at the pop to yesterday's close=$228, risking above R1=$230, offer for Tier 0 size in-front of R1=$230 didn't get hit for cents:(( and I didn't pay attention, so remained under-sized.
Covered small at the flush to $225, reloaded + added more size at the backtest of S1=$227, risking $228, expecting to hold below and move lower as market was getting hit.
Tried it twice but CAT had other plans. Once it broke the wedge to the upside + reclaimed yesterday's close I had to bail for a small loss.
