Summary

Long day with SPY chopping tightly most of the day as the daily stochastic appears to have formed a mini inverse pup tightening. This prompted us to scale into AAPL SHORTS on the divergence with SPY but eventually used pullbacks to back out.  HPE was a nice déjà vu trade. Got chopped stupid on VRX but finally snagged some profits to offset the losses a bit on the perfect storm breakout. Closed out the day with - $2,143 Losses.
