beautiful trade bomb. yes, i am below the 52.75 level. quite far from closing price so there has got to be more efficient way of stopping out.

good luck with the trade.

Shorted @ 1369.25, Stop @ 1384.00

Whatever news was announced, the market swung up and reversed massively. I recognize it as a serious threat and reversed short at this point. At least I could secure some 30 points from the previous trade.

Total profit since beginning: $16,862.50

Are these mental or physical stops?

Always physical stops placed in the market. For both the protective and the trailed stop.

Hopefully more! Momentum is very strong to the downside.
