Bounce play. I exited a bit prematurely on the first trade (selling the second half flat) so I re0entered for the break of $76 It faded back so I exited flat once again. Finally when it set up better I entered at $76.41 with a stop under $76.00 and gave it a chance. It got stuck in a box all day but finally ran into the close so I doubled up to actually get something decent out of the trade. I am holding 200 shares for a swing into tomorrow morning.
Update 10/2/2013: Got caught in a gap down in the morning but since I only had 200 shares I decided to see what it would do. Was able to get out for a small gain from my average price of $76.69, though I did give back about $60 in profit from the previous day.
