Good idea, executed badly.

BABA retested the intraday support at the full dollar of 158 again. As the whole market was weak I was going for a break of that level.

I watched the tape closely and had my eye on the Level II. Once the Offer dropped 158 I hit the Bid for three tiers, but filled just two. Unfortunately I took it off too fast for a small scalp.

I had a really bad day and wasn't feeling it today. I was also on the road and traded on the mobile setup. I really did not want to let this go against me, but giving it some room with a stop above 158 would have been the right decision.

Bad execution on my behalf. Bad Exit that is.
