I bought the pullback when the high was 64.25, got in when the RTH VPOC moved up to 61 for a push to R1, i took it off at 67 in the end because 66.50 a HVN yesterday.

But i missed this latest pullback to VPOC / front run of RTH VWAP, to be honest its done a lot of range now (~20 points), i am hoping to get 58's (ETH VWAP, Globex hi etc).

lets see if i have missed the boat or not...

yep, nice trade on the pullback - when it cant get to SD1 on the pullback and builds a base, best jump in. Took a while though to get going.

agree with your levels lower.
