Reflection
What I did well
Stopped out and not be stubborn when i have to stopped out. Follow plan per normal.
What I learned
Execution bad on DFNS. Its a low float so the vwap continuation should take account the spread. The last entry was on point but the amount of papercut I took is not worth. I rather have 1 shot that is proper than 2 papercuts which affects my psychology. Its a skill issue so I just have to be reminded on this pesky small caps to be even more patient not only on Intraday parabolic but also vwap continuation on a FRD.
Actionable takeaway
Tighten my execution criteria to avoid papercut on small caps.
Misc
DFNS : FRD (8)
MU : ORB (7)
SNOW : ORB SWING (6.5)
AI Review
Three named setups, plan followed on all — DFNS stopped (fired too early on a low-float FRD VWAP-cont), EXLS stopped per plan on a self-graded B/borderline-C scalp, SNOW swing added on higher-TF ORB and still open. Good process, bad execution timing on the small-cap scalps; the cut discipline is real.
- Small-cap VWAP-cont on FRDs: wait for the 5-min bar CLOSE, not the touch — spread eats the edge.
- Borderline B/C scalps get scalp targets only (as you did on EXLS) — don't upsize a C into a swing.
- Book stress today: only AMZN/CRCL/DLO/CRWD carry full risk — SNOW/UNH/VSXY are free-rolled runners, don't touch them for size.
- Aggression 10 + energy 7 = the day to narrow, not widen: A/A+ triggers only.
