Daily was primed for short as was losing all daily support. Alert triggered and i missed my 81.20 short trigger. Got pissed but kept on radar and flipped through other charts. Gave the bear flag setup so took short. Stop -.50, T+1, +2, and swing rest. The one looming piece that kept me second guessing was the fricking -15 handle gap down in the SPX. I hate shorting gap downs. Fell +.70 or so but was looking for that 1 point, bounced up missing my stop and rolled again and as it sat above 78 thought for sure it was gonna bleed so set stop at B/E and left for work. Pissed i got stopped but when its not ready, its just not ready. I think this was a good trade.

i like that entry riht there.. once it starts to round up ..u have to tigten upur leash on it..
I've been setting my stop when i leave for work around entry price, especially on this one it just kept tapping support so thought it would totally go. Figure take off all risk with stop so i can still be in the trade when i'm working.

That opening short you had talked about would've been a nice homerun. Worth giving it a go again when you did.
I have noticed the market lately has a tendency to reverse more times than not right in the noon - 1pm EST time frame. Take a look at many of your favorite momo stocks and tell me what you think.
