AMZN held it down for me today. The stock gapped down at the open and I shorted once it had a small pop into the VWAP & 9 EMA area. Placed my stop slightly above the 20 EMA. Covered once I had some small gains because I had lost so much on GOOG prior to this trade. It ended up flagging which would have made me really anxious to sell since it was looking kind of a bull flag.

I need to learn when a trade is worth taking. It was still $2 away from the VWAP when I had shorted it. Not a good idea to get in too early because with this wide range you could get stopped out quickly.
