Can't quite put my finger on why but I'm very skittish this week.

First entry I just didn't like as it was much higher than my original plan of something closer to $6 - as it was bouncing off the low vwap - so, noticing it was still trying to figure itself out, I exited with a little gain.

Second was a better entry that I should have just held for the dickens but I saw a downward trendline forming on the 5min chart so I decided to just exit at $6.40 as that was where it would bounce off from headed back down - if it were to do that. Should have split the trade but what to do. The S&P was dropping quite quickly so I felt it's better to err on the side of caution.

Disappointed I didn't have the wherewithal to hold but I did execute the retooled plan mid-trade without error.

Also, should have stuck to trying to get a price I wanted rather than catch it at market price.
