A few shorts so if blood hits the water i'm in.<br />

Monday/Tuesday kept the losses well below my max pain as had 1 winner that erased 6 losers. But then false B/O after false B/O got me in and ripped me out hitting max pain Wednesday and Thur/Fri combined hit max pain. Needless to say, since i've raised risk i thought it was more emotional, however in review most setups looked legit to me and just didn't work out. Here's whats on for this next week and game plan is to keep the added risk on, but will look at having tighter stops in case the market rolls as last week may have been a preview with failed B/O.<br />
<br />
Here's the list:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BpaSHGybvG0/U7CxLJc9jnI/AAAAAAAAFts/nx70lKg6M1U/s1600/Watchlist.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BpaSHGybvG0/U7CxLJc9jnI/AAAAAAAAFts/nx70lKg6M1U/s1600/Watchlist.png" height="320" width="251" /></a></div>
<br />
Most are longs (which i still feel i'm biased short) and only a few short so will keep my bias at bay and look to trade what setups i see. I have my alerts set.<br />
<br />
BTW: Here's an example of what most my trades looked like this week when i got stopped:<br />

Ended 0-5 and experiencing a tremendous drawdown in the ol trade account. The crazy thing is, in my review the setups look legit when i enter them. Today i'm posting screen shots of where i entered which to me reinforces great patterns, just didn't work out. I am do for a frickin HUGE winner soon!!!!!!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-idEJKtssNpE/U6o9qIR748I/AAAAAAAAFrg/a8qNJeAxces/s1600/VRTX.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-idEJKtssNpE/U6o9qIR748I/AAAAAAAAFrg/a8qNJeAxces/s1600/VRTX.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$JD popped up on radar and looked good so jumped in it however there was a huge buyer on the bid which looked like it was gonna spike down so took off for small loss. Price retraced and he dissapeared and came back so i longed again with size on the B/O only to take off for another loss as it failed.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7IyjO7ukqDo/U6o-EZE61hI/AAAAAAAAFro/BeBXcw6X2Sw/s1600/JD.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7IyjO7ukqDo/U6o-EZE61hI/AAAAAAAAFro/BeBXcw6X2Sw/s1600/JD.png" height="320" width="266" /></a></div>
<br />
Still green on day and my alert on $COUP hit so took too big of a position and got stopped to end the day slightly red. This was a poor trade.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5Sx6kdp0OAs/U6o-S0bmTTI/AAAAAAAAFrw/VzSSPuhqqAA/s1600/COUP+fakeout.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5Sx6kdp0OAs/U6o-S0bmTTI/AAAAAAAAFrw/VzSSPuhqqAA/s1600/COUP+fakeout.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
And lastly, an alert that triggered but i missed was $BIDU and what a runner it was<br />

I chose 2 great movers and allowed myself to rationalize micromanaging. I keep making progress in this area and then make the same mistake.<br />
<br />
$AAPL short on daily looked great, intraday set as well.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2yIlsN8KIY4/U6jye4egNpI/AAAAAAAAFrA/uXtFlr5solE/s1600/AAPL.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2yIlsN8KIY4/U6jye4egNpI/AAAAAAAAFrA/uXtFlr5solE/s1600/AAPL.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$AXAS daily HOT! Great entry and loaded with size only to rationalize moving stop to a support zone and stopped.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-48Re_M8Nan4/U6jyoAe11aI/AAAAAAAAFrI/APyP2SQwLCM/s1600/AXAS.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-48Re_M8Nan4/U6jyoAe11aI/AAAAAAAAFrI/APyP2SQwLCM/s1600/AXAS.png" height="320" width="271" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally $SSYS on watch, alerted, and didn't take. Man i gotta jump on those.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Still working on proper sizing as i find when i get in a winner i'm doing well with patience, but my size is smaller then i'd like. When in a loser, i've sized too big.<br />

Hit max pain and forced to sit on sidelines for remainder of day. Most would think this a defeat however the last 2 days have been the most enlightening as i've drastically increased my size and have been working through the emotions. I have limited each day to only 1 mistake (the good news), but again, i've been making 1 big mistake each day (the bad news). As i eliminate this 1 trade each day, i will overcome my final struggles to make it to the next level of trading that i am looking toward.<br />

$NFLX was looking for the gap and crap but took quick -1 loss.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7an8iWsaudo/U6EHcYcaDTI/AAAAAAAAFog/RzKe2bV0t2w/s1600/NFLX.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7an8iWsaudo/U6EHcYcaDTI/AAAAAAAAFog/RzKe2bV0t2w/s1600/NFLX.png" height="320" width="267" /></a></div>
<br />
$DYAX on watch list and started to go with volume. Great entry but micromanaged and took profits too quickly. I gotta chill and trade the pattern and enjoy the process!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wbXyurlIy98/U6EHpPkMV5I/AAAAAAAAFoo/RppZU3YKMJc/s1600/DYAX.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wbXyurlIy98/U6EHpPkMV5I/AAAAAAAAFoo/RppZU3YKMJc/s1600/DYAX.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$TRIP another great B/O on daily that gave a good entry.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wZoUadkOyNg/U6EH26jdbHI/AAAAAAAAFow/iOTvbePAsJ0/s1600/TRIP.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wZoUadkOyNg/U6EH26jdbHI/AAAAAAAAFow/iOTvbePAsJ0/s1600/TRIP.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally $EXPE looked great as SPY rolled this coiled tight. Took long but stopped flat<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DPcTHo7ndAw/U6EH_1WnZvI/AAAAAAAAFo4/CLFJfNBBEc0/s1600/EXPE.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DPcTHo7ndAw/U6EH_1WnZvI/AAAAAAAAFo4/CLFJfNBBEc0/s1600/EXPE.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>

Got long $TSLA at open and got out too quickBeen stalking $TSLA, finally get in at the perfect entry and take off entire position at +2 instead of +20. Great lesson<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RLLgTg_5UnU/U5-3aZRAUZI/AAAAAAAAFn4/MHUdTQbabe8/s1600/TSLA+Daily+BO.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RLLgTg_5UnU/U5-3aZRAUZI/AAAAAAAAFn4/MHUdTQbabe8/s1600/TSLA+Daily+BO.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
I really liked $ACHN as well and got in too early and got stopped out only to miss a fantastic entry.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vHkIO0Yt368/U5-3lAttFlI/AAAAAAAAFoA/L4UaZmdc98U/s1600/ACHN.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vHkIO0Yt368/U5-3lAttFlI/AAAAAAAAFoA/L4UaZmdc98U/s1600/ACHN.png" height="320" width="267" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
$MNKD looked great, long the B/O but rolled for small loss<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--WMkpegj9VM/U5-4diaZ4iI/AAAAAAAAFoI/STrAtz3K_RE/s1600/MNKD.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--WMkpegj9VM/U5-4diaZ4iI/AAAAAAAAFoI/STrAtz3K_RE/s1600/MNKD.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally the miss of the day $KORS<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZCZEj77tgE/U5-5CcHa79I/AAAAAAAAFoQ/EyQc8PfVDHc/s1600/KORS.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZCZEj77tgE/U5-5CcHa79I/AAAAAAAAFoQ/EyQc8PfVDHc/s1600/KORS.png" height="320" width="272" /></a></div>
<br />
What a fantastic trading day. I traded pretty well over all but $TSLA really hurt my psychologically.<br />

Some form of disconnect i'm unaware of at this point so will be focusing on it. My goal is to risk the SAME on EVERY trade as of now i'm bouncing around. This will help direct my green days as today should have been well 10R. Here are the trades:<br />
<br />
$TSLA nice daily flag with a quick ORB scalp but missed the big move. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E1DQKx4jcQE/U5puIdNuNmI/AAAAAAAAFnI/cXFOF2Xv8Ss/s1600/TSLA+scalp.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E1DQKx4jcQE/U5puIdNuNmI/AAAAAAAAFnI/cXFOF2Xv8Ss/s1600/TSLA+scalp.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
$YELP great daily setup and Red 2 Green play<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-C024vvB8T0o/U5puW6twwLI/AAAAAAAAFnQ/5KQMfs7I3xM/s1600/YELP+runner.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-C024vvB8T0o/U5puW6twwLI/AAAAAAAAFnQ/5KQMfs7I3xM/s1600/YELP+runner.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$PANW missed the initial run by splitting Bid/Ask. Attempted to play the P/B and traded with extreme risk. Need to eliminate this mistake.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XTsR1nBHWc8/U5pumuDCPSI/AAAAAAAAFnY/LVnVJ6f2un0/s1600/PANW+luck.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XTsR1nBHWc8/U5pumuDCPSI/AAAAAAAAFnY/LVnVJ6f2un0/s1600/PANW+luck.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
$SYNA short but stopped<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
$GMCR the one that i passed on, WOW!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tJM8aZFatkE/U5pu03D0gLI/AAAAAAAAFno/0muaRNQwewc/s1600/GMCR+missed.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tJM8aZFatkE/U5pu03D0gLI/AAAAAAAAFno/0muaRNQwewc/s1600/GMCR+missed.png" height="320" width="267" /></a></div>

Bloodiest day this year for me. Most interesting lesson was today was a good day as in review they were all setups that have been working for me, with good R:R. My only issue was my $SYNA short, when i stopped it was over the premarket congestion and my thesis was to look to switch long if made it over as had the momo to go, but i forgot my plan and didn't jump long. Here is the pain:<br />
$SYNA both 2 short attempts and then 2 long attempts. This thing worked me like i was it's "John"<br />

<br />
After this brutal beating, $VNDA looked like a great setup on both daily and intraday, but was a day too early.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s6HjSG6MMiw/U5kb1Pd683I/AAAAAAAAFm4/eghsgBjTFRs/s1600/VNDA+short.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s6HjSG6MMiw/U5kb1Pd683I/AAAAAAAAFm4/eghsgBjTFRs/s1600/VNDA+short.png" height="320" width="267" /></a></div>
<br />
Having to lick my wounds tonight as today was a giant step back, but again pleased with my trading as had conviction on majority of trades. Tomorrow i will triumph.<br />
Here are time stamped trades: <a href="http://www.tradervue.com/shared/users/4408" target="_blank">http://www.tradervue.com/shared/users/4408</a>StockSlingerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18139755090085792002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455651013867625866.post-45555623382351034002014-06-10T20:17:00.000-07:002014-06-10T20:18:30.469-07:00Still striving toward correct sizing as well as recognizing normal P/B spotsHad the potential for a HUGE day, however working through sizing issues. I tend to size too small on winners, and too big on losers. Will focus on risking same amount each trade.<br />
Missed a few great plays today. I like to include them as they are phenomenal lessons for positive reinforcement.<br />
$ACHN premarket gave a textbook flag<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dB4VL9_xqXU/U5fGuMgP7mI/AAAAAAAAFl0/1-N92ZcJj98/s1600/ACHN+Premarket+Flag.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dB4VL9_xqXU/U5fGuMgP7mI/AAAAAAAAFl0/1-N92ZcJj98/s1600/ACHN+Premarket+Flag.png" height="236" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I did catch $RCPT pre market off a flag back to support<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7sxEWhUpogU/U5fG5nWp1NI/AAAAAAAAFl8/wlQv9O5QGwk/s1600/RCPT+Premarket.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7sxEWhUpogU/U5fG5nWp1NI/AAAAAAAAFl8/wlQv9O5QGwk/s1600/RCPT+Premarket.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$BEAV gave a great setup but didn't work until later<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T4zfMGsUK4k/U5fHFjuVPlI/AAAAAAAAFmE/X90eiQhMu-Y/s1600/BEAV+loss.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T4zfMGsUK4k/U5fHFjuVPlI/AAAAAAAAFmE/X90eiQhMu-Y/s1600/BEAV+loss.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
$BAS as well gave a great short. I had a valid thesis, stop and target however raised my stop to B/E to quickly and scratch trade. Shame as fell nicely all day.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DyTQ7hVdLAw/U5fJ32tZRUI/AAAAAAAAFmM/9-6PuOtr7jg/s1600/BAS+micro.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DyTQ7hVdLAw/U5fJ32tZRUI/AAAAAAAAFmM/9-6PuOtr7jg/s1600/BAS+micro.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally $MNST which i've had on watchlist for some time now, alerted but i never pulled it up. Play of the day!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RvjawVHosmc/U5fKBx58SSI/AAAAAAAAFmU/s3f1YG50Ys8/s1600/MNST+Miss.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RvjawVHosmc/U5fKBx58SSI/AAAAAAAAFmU/s3f1YG50Ys8/s1600/MNST+Miss.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>

<br />
Also $GLOG short setup was great, however missed limit target by pennies and was too slow on the draw and winner turned loser<br />

Saw a few great setups that i missed by pennies like the pullback in $ACHN<br />

<br />
Found great short in $CRM that just didn't work<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EI4CAKURhag/U5ZneEfW4DI/AAAAAAAAFlc/53XOsqRFhNQ/s1600/CRM+Short+loss.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EI4CAKURhag/U5ZneEfW4DI/AAAAAAAAFlc/53XOsqRFhNQ/s1600/CRM+Short+loss.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
Was still up on the day and saw the nice flag on $BIDU which has been hot lately and trading technically perfect, but made the mistake of over sizing and got hit on too big of a loss.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kVRyJK0WWus/U5ZnqTaAlUI/AAAAAAAAFlk/Q-LodrRN1ZU/s1600/BIDU+flag+loss.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kVRyJK0WWus/U5ZnqTaAlUI/AAAAAAAAFlk/Q-LodrRN1ZU/s1600/BIDU+flag+loss.png" height="320" width="267" /></a></div>
<br />
Overall was a great day process wise. Had a huge green P&L which i've done much better at not trading against. Very pleased with the lesson $BIDU reminding me to always size accordingly, but not pleased with the tuition it charged. Kept a cool head with taking on 2R on all trades except the -4R loss on BIDU.<br />

Great R:R over over 5:1 on final position kept me in the comfortable green zone.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zlXLvCj1heU/U4_fSw9aaWI/AAAAAAAAFjg/ASof9rcYyOQ/s1600/BIDU.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zlXLvCj1heU/U4_fSw9aaWI/AAAAAAAAFjg/ASof9rcYyOQ/s1600/BIDU.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
$SCTY Great short over last several days, took off final swing piece today for +3 and attempted another quick bear flag but took small loss. Was extended on 30 minute and should have looked to switch to long.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-htQ5tmBBKpc/U4_i_11LgUI/AAAAAAAAFjs/BilASuz0A0o/s1600/SCTY.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-htQ5tmBBKpc/U4_i_11LgUI/AAAAAAAAFjs/BilASuz0A0o/s1600/SCTY.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
$LNKD been bearish and had a nice reversion setup into previous days consolidation area so warranted the short but didn't work as planned.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1h6RqLqD9lM/U4_jNfpPwBI/AAAAAAAAFj0/DRePKNtdJ1c/s1600/LNKD.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1h6RqLqD9lM/U4_jNfpPwBI/AAAAAAAAFj0/DRePKNtdJ1c/s1600/LNKD.png" height="320" width="268" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally $NQ had huge gap up into resistance and rolled setting a nice little bear flag but didn't flush like expected so took small loss<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ie4oSCWHRr4/U4_jamzMJ5I/AAAAAAAAFj8/_YICASfqcXk/s1600/NQ.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ie4oSCWHRr4/U4_jamzMJ5I/AAAAAAAAFj8/_YICASfqcXk/s1600/NQ.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>

Great text book bear flag that just continued to harvest profits. Swing short partial overnight.<br />

Great pattern and hit limit short but missed fill by pennies. GOTTA HIT THE BID WHEN SHORTING!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
$SPLK kept tapping lows, although extended looked good and put on the risk but got stopped.<br />

Gave a P/B to congestion area which gave a great short at the VWAP and 50MA. Shorted just under and blew it by putting way too tight of a stop. Great setup though.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ME1VciGZq_Y/U4q6D6BYwwI/AAAAAAAAFiQ/P2cpRwdSkb0/s1600/SCTY.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ME1VciGZq_Y/U4q6D6BYwwI/AAAAAAAAFiQ/P2cpRwdSkb0/s1600/SCTY.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
$BBY Great daily Base B/O setup, took early off open, great tight stop of -.15 with ultimate target of +.75 for 5:1 R:R. I nailed the entry and ended up moving my stop up too quick. Painful reminder not to micromanage.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
$GMCR Nice intraday bear flag. Stop -.50, Target +1. Had to leave so tightened stop to -.25 and put limit +1.10. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZB6BcLK1fg/U4f9JjZhG2I/AAAAAAAAFhw/L5J55BwBe9M/s1600/SCTY.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZB6BcLK1fg/U4f9JjZhG2I/AAAAAAAAFhw/L5J55BwBe9M/s1600/SCTY.png" height="320" width="270" /></a></div>
<br />
Shook it off and found $QIHU which looks great for a short swing but mismanaged my sizing and took to few shares on this great setup.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JmssjsGaw-0/U4f9WeO4-qI/AAAAAAAAFh4/-X1ll4tqtDk/s1600/QIHU.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JmssjsGaw-0/U4f9WeO4-qI/AAAAAAAAFh4/-X1ll4tqtDk/s1600/QIHU.png" height="320" width="269" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally $XGTI which looked solid. Got in early as looked strong but just couldn't pierce through the overhead supply and took the loss.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
