Another fill issue here -- first sell, half my position, I sold at market at $30.20 without looking at the spread (I don't have live data) and it covered it at 30.11. Second sell I used a LMT. Because of the first cover, I moved my target up for my remaining shares to 30.60, just under high of day, but it didn't have legs.

I think the play on these gap downs is either a short position or squeeze zone. The entry was at around 29.70. Maybe someone can chime in about whether or not to take a shot at long at any other point on something like this or whether to just leave it at those 2 plays?

Nice entry on that retest of 30
