-6% day. mechanical misjudgements. technically ok

 It was a "good" losing day. I held my stops and took my losses. Peace! esp later in the day I saw how much worse...Thats what stops are for.

If anything, I jumped into BABA so early that I didn't see it fill. I couldn't see it to sell it at a nice profit a minute later (as if I would have, but I didn't know how to manage it). Basically traded blind in that opening minute, which I don't like. The bright side, the first opening position was smaller bc it was potentially a chase.

I think I had good picks to day and played them pretty well. ROKU was the one that got away, for a short off highs, but it wasn't clear at the time that the market was going to puke. Or at least, maybe I could have seen that my breakout longs didn't run "right", but that's not enough evidence to short a heart attacker like ROKU.
