looking for a few short points on DayTrade2.
My reason for it is the rally paused and dropped to a level of "support" that I'm betting won't be the ultimate support before the rally can continue. I'm using the 5 day rolling volume ladder to id the target.

Flipped long on the theoretical hypothesis therum that I postulated an incorrect direction.

Flipped again as the bounce is stalling. Going with my initial idea. I'll get Christmas presents from my broker.

Ugh! DayTrade. Nothing I can do but let it breath. I have to step away for about an hour. This stop and target is the best I could come up with... other than just exit and go flat.... but that feels too much like giving up to me.

Added 2nd half. avg 67.25. Looking to break even by chance because reasonable targets make it that way.

I flipped long on DayTrade2. I just don't see the market weakening.
That said, I'm still holding a real short position on a swing trade basis. Not looking good for that but I can't cover that on a rally... I have to wait for weakness no matter how many days it takes. Hate sitting on a loser but it's the only way to handle it.

skeptical of further upside. Flat on DayTrade2.
Done day trading today.

Clearly I was early/wrong on this short. But rom this level I'm encouraged that there will be resistence going higher. No matter, the short stays until there's selling.

Wow. Helplessly watching the parabolic move up against me. I'll be the headless horseman for Halloween.

I lied. Taking another shot short.
Doesn't anybody want to sell? I'd take a part time job to make up for my loses but who will hire me when I have no head... it's been handed to me!
