    11:07

    LONG WYNN 106.97
    STOP 106.71
    TGT 107.49

    - WYNN a beast from the open
    - Missed a few entries, chased this one. Still got close enough that I should have probably moved to a B/E stop

    14:08

    SHORT RRC 36.64
    STOP 36.75

    14:22

    SHORT ZION 21.36
    STOP 21.45
    TGT 21.18

    - After the selloff to 2pm, SPY drifts higher
    - ZION drifts lower
    - Short a lower high hoping the market continues downward
    - out -0.13

    14:45
    LONG BRK 83.03
    STOP 82.92
    TGT 83.25

    - The market continues drifting up, look for a long
    - BRK/B retraced it's entire selloff and went green again showing some decent strength
    - out -0.13

    1 trade I shouldn't have taken today and one execution issue (wynn should have been B/E).. probably could have been 1-3-1 rather than 1-5..
