nicks and cuts

Traded super tight tolerances today QCOM, MSFT, MU. Hard work for a green day that was straight down on indexes.As I write SPY -1.8%, QQQ -2.8%. If there's going to be any kind of Santa Claus rally, it's running out of time.  

I might annotate later, but I need to run out and I don't really feel like coming back to it. Frustrating day.

I guess if I think about it more, tight stop is the right stop, and the problem, if anything was that I picked choppy trades vs the no-bid trades that didn't zig zag so much. How can I anticipate that?
