My largest position XIV continues its tear towards contango: I own a lot of this in the 23, 25, 26 range.

back tests the breakdown price seemed to be rejected, setting up for a downward trust if there is any weakness broad markets.
FIT: nice consolidation, put on a starter position
OVAS:
This is one that had a nice countertrend bounce over the past couple of days. I like to short these types of stocks at the first sign of weakness. Using a short time frame when the trend breaks, I enter. I expect the win rate to be lower the shorter the time frame, but the pay off can be 5 to 1, which is why I take these trades.
This one did not work as a short... yet. We

July 13,
That's more like it.
VIX -- found its way back into the channel. I wouldn't be surprised however if it made bounce on the red RSI line and tested the gap. That said momo is back in fashion.
Got the morning gap in several names I bought Friday. FEYE, sold the gap and then re-bought the position
Entry: 49.53
Exit: 50.75
Entry 2: 49.85
Some positive action on the RSI, but momo looks like it is slowing a bit.
FOLD:
Another morning gapper, sold off a portion in the AM and remainder on the fade.
Entry 14.46
Exit 1: 14.85
Exit 2. 14.60
NEM short-- sold off but then bounced back. Moved my stop to in the money and was hit.

CARA: weekly breakout. I was a little confused on this one as it lagged for much of the day, so I cut my position size. But when it broke out past the previous day trading range

June 2.
SYGP:
Partial sell on the opening
SHOP:
Sold the premarket gap to 32:
This one is still in play look for it coming out of that hourly base.
FIT: I think a lot of people went into FIT yesterday in hopes of a gap. I was prepared to sell into a gap had that happened. Yet there was a quick sell off about 45 mins before the open and FIT came bouncing back. I knew that would be a good sign as the dip shook some of the weaker hands out so this trade became less crowded. I decided to get out going into 44. I figured the handle would be some resistance and I would rather sell into the handle before the test as if the resistance held this could have dropped quickly and I would be chasing a bid.
It did briefly get over 44 and when that happens there is a quick rush and then a fade. That is exactly what happened and FIT could not regain the strength after the gates opened at 44.
This is still one to watch... First level I would consider is 40 then the gap in the 37.5-38 range. This is still crowded and it needs to punish a some of the "easy money" traders.
EHIC:
Opened 14.28 Back to this one after being stopped out on Monday. Several bounces off the $14 handle. Hedge funds increasing positions (with lock out until fall)

Wife is taking a vacation nap. I monitor the markets. SGYP has been strong and was able to hold up through broad market selling. It made a charge end of day. I'll go in here:
