I traded MMM off the support at 163 from 3 days ago. I had great executions and overall traded it well holding it into the predetermined levels in my watch list. What did not work well was the options I traded. They looked liquid but pricing was literally horrible. I was up over $300 at some points in this trade and just couldn't get out of the options. Going forward I am only trading mmm as a swing.
Separately, I had 165 tagged as an inflexion point. I really should have taken a short trade on the opening range break of this level. Yesterday we traded to 52W highs in this name and I was really only thinking about a long trade.
