Huge gapper, hit $59.5 in premarket. Had OR Breakdown on 5 minute. Found this with my ORB scanner in TC2000. My 2nd short "adding" -200 was a mistake, I meant to Buy to cover. I shorted again, but realized I needed to "wait" longer, so I just covered. Waited til better setup with EMA, then covered at Key level from Pre-market. Had 2 other good entry setups but did not take them - stopped watching.

Nick, I saw the premarket high then a big fade to the open. Then I watched the opening range and was going to go either way, Long or Short depending which way it broke. I thought a Long could only go to premarket high as resistance. But a short could fall all the way back to the premarket low, which it did. I was purely playing price action. I am trying to not "decide" which way I want to play it.

Nice trade! I'm curious what gave you an indication to short. I had it on my list to long because of the breakout above major resistance levels and when It started flushing I took it off my list.
