+$110.50 (1500 shares) - VIP gapped up on the 16th and consolidated all day...I was swinging it to try and play it for a second day of momentum. It gapped up again on the 17th and I tried to buy more shares on the flag break thinking it was going to continue the run up. Luckily it recovered a bit without violating my stop and I was able to scale out 3/4 position for a gain of 15 cents per share. The last 1/4 I just closed the position to preserve profits.
