Another early day

Once again another day done early.

This trade set up on the 5M chart and the daily. My original premise was all this support lost and a gap fill trade. I was right on both but executed rather poorly on the gap fill piece of it.

I got the trade on and figured I had plenty of time to get figure out exactly where I wanted my targets but the darn thing went so fast that I barely  had time to adjust my preset target a bit before it just kept  pushing down.

Then the price just stopped mid air for no reason and started putting in what looked like a potential V bottom and I got nervous and bailed out, just as price just collapsed from 55.40 all the way down to my original target of 55.00. I left another 40 ticks on the table. Had I walked away today would have been an outlier for me. Oh well. Time for the weekend.
