SHORT APC 74.94
STOP 75.14
TGT 74.54

- Weak most of the day
- Tight lower high under a round #
- Used a wider stop (1c over high of one bar back) since APC was kinda spready
- .58 was the 1.8:1 tgt so when i saw APC print .56 I moved the stop to .58
- stop market got me out at .63 (oof).
- It never did touch my TGT before returning back to b/e but I'm counting this as a winner
- out +0.30
