good gains, but coulda-shoulda

 Not too shabby a day. But I left a lot on the table in the HD trade by cutting profits. Left a lot on the table with PDD by chickening out with too tight a stop. QCOM I traded not bad. Really coulda shoulda had so much more today. But still a B+ green day on account.
