Daily setup: nms. Tradenet called it out as a potential, but I played it my own way.
Entry/play: After 1 min surge and flag, I tried to buy hammer pb.
Management: stop below hammer. Phew! so happy to have stopped out before the market duuuumped on 10am announcement.
Psychology: After excellent TSLA win, I thought about packing up. I should have. Even though I went small and waited for a "good" entry, this was just a waste. Thankfully not a big waste, but not my setup, not my timing. Just a simple case of money burning a hole in my pocket and getting too cute.
LEARN: when trading post-open, be aware of economic calendar!
Also learn: after a super good opening trade, go ahead and pack it up.
