WYNN messy/lucky +50%

Daily setup: Gap up off double-bottom, but not out of the box
Entry/play: look to move up against pivot
Management: no fucking management
Psychology: Terrible. First problem was sub-optimal setup. Second problem was spread on option was 15-20% in the spread. I KNOW I YANK STOPS ON WIDE SPREADS. Conclusion: DON'T TRADE WIDE SPREADS. Ensuing trade was a nightmare on wheels. Only by total luck did I come out green here at all.
