Trading Review: 03-26-2015
Intraday Trading: +1128. Completely missed the biotech rebound in the morning that I had been preparing for, so was feeling a little down about that. Managed to not turn that into a bad situation by being disciplined and spotted the oil opportunity middle of the day, which obviously made my day. Really happy about attitude towards the oil, was anticipating areas for entry and getting great low risk entries.Was a slight lack of focus in the morning as I was paying attention to the euro - probably contributing to missing the biotechs, and the loss in LL which could have been profitable if managed correctly.
WLL: Reasonably basic rollover pattern. Happy with trade. Could have been profitable if literally managed ASAP.
KRFT: Missed this rally to $85 on the open which was annoying, especially since I called it out on the chat.Obviously would have been a decent winner. Got the rally into $85 late day. The thing I'm really happy with about this is that I watched it pop into $85, fail, and then got the secondary pop. So really good controlling risk, and accordingly I probably could have been slightly larger.
CL: Obviously trade(s) of the day. Basically noticed after completing a soft gap fill it was trading at the US session highs, and was above the Asian session vwap. So I got long with ~15c risk, and got around 50c, so good trade. Was probably a little greedy with my second lot, wanting that low probability late day squeezer rather than taking it into the area I had anticipated of $51.50. Really good trading!!
SNDK: Was looking for the wash, hold and reclaim vwap. Really good entry, should have managed some quicker, but overall good trade. Was stopped at a relative low, but the bigger picture idea didn't work out so I'm happy. Better management and would have been profitable, like LL.
LL: Nailed the morning wash for a weak open r/g type move. Failed, but rallied a little over 50c back from entry (to opening print), so obviously should have taken some off there.
Swing Trading: -$496. Crazy day on the swing trading, haven't had a day like that in a while where all positions are down.
AXN: I have no borrows, but luckily have some in back account, so I established quite a large short position here. Can easily still go higher, but momentum fizzling a little. Risk on hold over $2 (i.e. not para over $2).
CRMD: Waiting to establish more. I feel like it's probably peaking out at $8 here, but I would like to get adds closer to $9, so stuck with this position size for now.
ADXS: A real shame I didn't establish a swing near the highs, but glad to be expressing view via options.
LL: I'd say squeeze thesis is busted after todays slow fade. However, I will assess liquidity and where best offer is, and see if I can get a nice exit on the offer, or if I am stuck bagholding to zero. If it does squeeze it will be a little random, so it's probably not the end of the world bagholding them.
