I had no reason to trade here. There was no pivot and no spike into that one. AAPL had rejected 152 (the only place I would have been allowed to take a short) and traded back below to test the half dollar.
I went short after the hard reject and chased. Of course AAPL reversed. It was just a bad entry and I was trapped into taking that trade. Bad call, bad trading. Somehow I did not manage to emotionally take my exit immediately. Next bad call. REally traded like an idiot without any perspective.
153.20 was the pivot to watch. nothing until then. Bad trading. I dont want to got further into what I did next and how I scaled out of this mess. Lacked perspective.
