Great first trade of the morning. Shorted on closing the gap and extended on the daily. Left a ton of money on the table.

GOOG
Another day for the short, and I didn’t see it coming. I saw a little green candle and entered; I should have waited for a clear signal.
Result: -$1,800

Similar to GOOG, I was looking for a close gap and bounce, which didn’t happen due to market weakness.
Result: -$1,000

Result: -$500

Again, I should have waited for a signal instead of entering despite the market conditions, and paid the price for it.
