AAPL calls +21%

AAPL daily setup: gap up.
Entry/play: opening indecision. 2nd bar new low and back in. trade above 2nd min bar, stop low of entry bar.
Management: Initial target 211.7, then trailed separate very tight stops.
Psychology: Rocket trades are fun. I like how I managed it. Feel-good, profitable trade.
