This one was just stupid. Very stupid. I was more lucky than what not to get out of it with a scratch.
Out of the Open I saw NFLX and thought it would break out above 357. It moved for a moment in my direction but my order for a partial under 357.50 on the offer was not filled.
It dropped faster than I could watch. I let it trade against me.
I had a pivot at 354 but did not have the balls to double down as my first entry was just bad. I stuck with it and was lucky to take my losses where I could. Even though it would have ended up positive I did deserve the loss!
