  2. Yup, right now all I'm aiming for is 2:1 reward:risk and a 50% success rate. repeat ad infinitum

    I know that geez sometimes moves stops/targets after taking some off at 2:1

    10:55

    SHORT CAM 35.6
    STOP 35.78
    TGT 35.24

    - CAM very weak vs. SPY today, almost closes the gap
    - Take the lower high.

    14:58

    LONG MEE 35.88
    STOP 35.73
    TGT 36.18

    - From 2pm to my entry MEE is very clean and strong vs. a choppy SPY
    - Take the tight higher low

    15:30

    SHORT APC 57.01
    STOP 57.20
    TGT 56.63

    - APC dips with SPY from 3pm but does not participate on SPYs retrace after 10 minutes.
    - geez and I were a little annoyed we missed the perfect lower high short at 3:00pm at 57.75
    - geez and I talk each other into shorting
    - APC blows past 57 and teases our targets, both of us move our stops to B/E
    - APC and the overall market rips and takes out our b/e stop

    0-2-1 today
