Up is down and down is up

Up is down and down is up again today. The big gappers up above levels, all crushed down. The gappers down, all surged up. WTF? 
First of all, a great lesson in need to take quick profits. But why? What makes a continuation day and what makes these reversal days?

So far 10:45am, I'm flat on closed trades, but have one giant loser still open. I may eat this big. Ugh.

And back down -10%

Clear as day. Started great. Then dig the hole deeper and deeper. How do I stop?

Monday, August 3, 2020

Starting the month +10%.

Extremely strong open this morning. Lots of nice setups that launched🚀 like gangbusters. I was mostly done at 9:47. Fun to get on for the ride.

New trade chart including open/close times

BABA beautiful pennant breakout. Ran so strongly. For a while I was not sure if my market order got filled. Then after it filled I just entered an order for +$100. Then around that time the call simply disappeared from position list without showing in my realized list. Did I ever own it? Did I sell? Eventually it showed up, but it seems like I was trading before the options market had its head on straight. 
Later, as I was journaling, I saw it bounce off the vwap and tried another small position with insanely tight stop.. Got a smidge off that, and it didn't make ndh so I'm satisfied with my sell.


BILI turning back up on daily. Whole market launched. Missed the first entry bc other open trades. Traded a micro entry with very tight tolerances. I think it only worked bc market was to the moon.


MSFT, like the others, breaking above high triangle.









PTON new ath. Got my piece.
