  • Did I follow my risk guidelines?

Yes, I risked about .30 cents on this trade for a total of 240 dollars, within my risk criteria for a reward of about 1 point. The R v R was there so I made the trade.

  • Did I correctly use a feeler?

I did not use a Feeler for this trade, I got in on the anticipation of a breakout.

  • Was I in the correct amount of size?

I was close to max size on this and I liked the set up along with the overall market was super strong.

  • How many times did I chase the trade?

I did not chase the trade but I may have used the SPY's as a reason to get out instead of actually managing this position. I am still not sure if it's the right move to lighten as the SPY's were approaching the top of what I thought to be an intraday channel. I'll need to have more of these type of trades to be able to make sure that was the right thing to do. Ultimately I was able to sell most of my shares around my target price. I tried to hold to see if it would continue to go after the SPY's broke the top of the intraday channel but BIDU was stuck at the gap level.
