I had 144.70 down as resistance and watched AAPL trade higher. There was a huge order at 175 and on the first attempt AAPL sold off after the test. So, on the re-test I watched close, ready to frontrun it with my offer by one cent.

But I saw it move strong into that level and refused to do so. instead I placed a stop-limit for a break-out that was not filled as the next print was around .08. Heavy volume on the break, BUT also a high of .09.

When I saw AAPL reject that level and there was no immediate follow through to the upside I took a short on the break below 175 but had some slippage.

It took a bit until it resolved and my first target at the half dollar was hit.

Stuck to the rest, but all the time worried about a retest of my entry and a stop out, not knowing whether to take it off or not. Stop above 175 would have been the right call.

There was not pullback that far adn AAPL traded lower eventually test 174 twice. I did not exit there. Bad call. I stopped out. Good Exit, but still too early. AAP sold off and broke below VWAP.
