Second entry after the first trade in this one failed when I anticipated it. This time it cracked to $33.77 with a nice volume spike so I was confident entering at $33.82. Took it bigger this time too, up to 800 shares from 500 shares, since I had higher confidence and higher probability as well as a very defined stop loss. Could have even gone to 1500 or 1800 on this as it only required about a 10c stop. Covered into the first flush, then after the base at $33.50 I added 800 back to 1k shares short at a $33.56 average, covering my last into the bottom at $33.30ish. Overall this was a perfectly executed trade.
