    9:44

    LONG IBN 46.2
    STOP 46.09
    TGT 46.42

    - Inverse gap to SPY
    - SPY selling, IBN heading higher
    - Tight higher low, looking for a SPY reversal to help too
    - out +0.22

    10:15

    LONG JBL 21.15
    STOP 20.99
    TGT 21.47

    - Inverese gap just like IBN
    - 10am #s were BAD, market tanks
    - JBL heads higher showing great relative strength
    - SPY reverses and JBL doesn't follow, I knew this trade was in trouble right there (and everyone else fades)
    - out -0.16

    10:34

    SHORT COH 50.22
    STOP 50.32
    TGT 50.02

    - Big selloff with the market after 10am
    - SPY tries to bounces off the lows, COH ranges at the lows
    - Short the break
    - out -0.10

    14:25

    LONG X 54.03
    STOP 53.94
    TGT 54.21

    - SPY made a push to HOD just before 2pm and pulled back
    - Ignoring the morning tail, X did as well but it had retraced it's pullback by 14:40
    - Beautiful triangle against 54.00 resist. Sent my order late, gave it some slip and got .03 (wanted .01)
    - Yesterday I said I wasn't going to split so I stuck to my rules. I was also 1-2 going into this trade so I wanted to take a full sized winner..
    - out +0.18, runs 50c right after I exit. typical
