9:36

(2min play)
SHORT POT 142.44
STOP 142.67
TGT 142.00

- POT gaps down with SPY
- SPY choppy and heading higher
- POT heading lower
- Short the tight lower high, tgt at the round #

out +0.42 (sick LOD cover)

10:00:23

(2min play)
LONG RIMM 61.21
STOP 61.01
TGT 61.61

- One of the few stocks to gap up today
- Look to get long after the 10am #

out +0.37

14:25

SHORT RIG 67.72
STOP 67.86
TGT 67.44

- RIG weak since 11:30am, slow drift down
- Get short under the tight lower high

out -0.14 (ticked out, fuuu)

14:44

LONG COST 67.66
STOP 67.55
TGT 67.88

14:55

ADDING COST 67.73
STOP 67.65
TGT 67.88

- COST strong on the day holding at highs even during the 2pm SPY selloff
- Get long over the bar (first trade)
- Higher low sets up after, add on half
- Took some off at .83 (woudl have been tgt on the add)

out +0.22 and +0.15

15:19

LONG NTAP 51.09
STOP 50.98
TGT 51.31

- SPY pulled back from 3:10 for 10 minutes
- NTAP pushed higher through this
- Look to get long with an SPY turn
- I should not have taken this trade as there was a big tail on the entry bar which was below the stop i used
- out -0.14

15:27

SHORT RIG 67.49
STOP 67.59
TGT 67.29

- Same rationale as earlier RIG trade

out +0.19
