Hit this late in the day as it was a nice flattop intraday near the high of the daily chart. It popped and came back, then I got out as it rolled.
I didn't notice I only got a partial fill on the exit, or had a ToS problem again. I am getting better at doublechecking the executions but did not catch this one. Something for me to work harder on.

I've successfully traded home builder stocks for the past 3-4 months. You literally have to stalk them daily/intra-day to catch good entries. They also swing a great deal based on interest rates, Fed chatter, housing data, and investor sentiment in their sector. Keep these factors in mind. DHI, TOL, RYL are my favorites. DHI just beat on earnings and looks to be on the elevator to the next floor. However, this sector also present good shorts early morning, intra-day and EOD. I usually notice a sell-off near the end of the day and catch a good .15/.30 short like clockwork. If I can offer any additional advice about stocks in this sector please don't hesitate to reach out. Cheers!

looked ok to me, except that red volume candle when you entered.. but when you are in that candle you never know whether its going to turn our red or green... so not bad I don't think
