Closed OREX, ISNS, MPAA, TUBE, GMCR,YRCW, AMED

Lots of selling today.  524 stocks down greater than 4%.  Unfortunately, I owned several of them.  I got knocked out of a bunch of positions as stops were hit.  That's trading. So here's the damage:

OREX-- This was the first to go.  It's breakout never really got going.  This hasn't really broke down...yet. But I didn't go into this trade to wait for 4 weeks in hopes that its move would resume.  I'm perfectly fine getting out here.

Entry: 6.09
Entry 5.94
Closed 5.68

ISNS, This actually made a run after gapping down but it was not to be. It was sold off and I'm out. My mistake was selling my second lot, more than buying my third.

Entry 1: 3.08
Entry 2: 3.01
Entry 3:  4.02
Exit 1: 3.21
Exit 2: 3.04
Exit 3: 3.55

MPAA
This was a breakout trade that got slammed back down.

Entry:35.65
Exit 33.80
-.9%R

TUBE:
This was a decent trade.  I stayed committed to my plan to use the 6EMA as my stop, which meant I moved it up.  As the market sold off, TUBE was closed

Entry 15.86
Exit: $16.75
+.6R

GMCR

I closed my short out as out GMCR was down 6 days in a row. Since it did not appear this morning that we would have the selling we did this afternoon, I figured there was no sense in pushing this trade farther.  I had traded it nicely
Entry 140.72
Exit. 131.90
1.5%R

YRCW
Another Breakout slammed back down.
Entry: 24.92
Exit:  23.95

AMED:
I bought this on the B/o this morning.  I played it with a tight stop as I figured a true breakout shouldn't go red on breakout day. This one was crammed down.

Entry: 26.89
Exit: 26.26

Opened ESI, TUBE, EXAS, AVNR

ESI: Looked ready to resume the uptrend.  It bounced off of 8. which provides support
Entry: $9.16

Tube  Staged a nice reversal after hitting support

AVNR: nice range expansion.  Good action going into the close
Entry: $14.40

EXAS:

After some contraction, EXAS got a pop.  It gapped the open and then faded. As it got a late burst of strength I bought.

Entry $24.23

Closed: TUBE, YOD, Day trade BABA

Today was kind of a a "meh day."  I didn't get much traction on anything.  I closed 3 positions for a total of 1R profit.

First Tube.   This was just a disappointing trade as it had potential but faded once it looked it would gain traction.  I really dislike b/o faders.  So I banged it out.  This needs to set up as a flag again and I would bet that it is going to take 15-20 days before it is ready to breakout.

Trade Summary
Entry: 15.09
Exit: 15.43
+ .26R

My entry was relatively poor in this stock as an entry at 14.80 should have been had.  But what ever, this is what it is.

YOD:
On the Short side my fade of YOD played out perfectly.  I bought it in as the volume started to dry up.  I had set a buy order at 1.86 last night--turned out to be the LOD.  That being said, so did some other traders and I didn't get filled there I got filled.  I banged it out at $1.94

Entry: 2.19 avg
Exit: 1.94
.58R

This one worked out well.  No need to be a hero or wait for another .20.

BABA:
Baba set up for a nice breakout. 101.20.  It made a nice run after word hitting a high of 102.80.  I am very adverse to b/o fades and I hate taking a loss after I'm up over a pt in a stock so I moved my stop to 101.75.  Although that held for most of the day a late day plunge took me out -- filled at 101.77
Trade summary
Entry 101.20
Exit: 101.77
.18R  BABA then decided to surge on A.H. trading as traders wanted to get in before earnings.  I thought I saw a 105 print which would have been good for at least 3R from my entry.  Oh well--protect capital first.

Opened TUBE VTAE AVNR

A busy day as there were a number of setups I really liked.

Tube
A recent IPO that has had an orderly pul l back and a great breakout.  Now it appears that the back test was successful and when selling looked to be ending I took a position as it went positive
Entry $15.09

VTAE
A recent IPO that has shown some power. After checking down and retesting it went higher. This one has good potential.
Entry:
$13.70 ,  I bought higher that I would like. For that reason I didn't put a lot of size on .  I still think it makes a run towards 17 and for that reason I was willing to pay up for it.

AVNR

This is the move I was waiting for out of this pattern.  A great Bull Flag that was wrapping around higher like AGIO did before it burst out.  In at 13.01
