FOSL Short Setup

Short setup I am watching on FOSL


Watching IBM

I took a short in IBM today, maybe a little bit aggressive. I am watching for the bear flag to resolve to the downside. Target is 150

20 Day 30 Minute chart




A short in FOSL

I decided to follow my rules an short FOSL on a 5m chart.
  • Below VWAP
  • Broke the low of day
  • breaking down from a daily bear flag pattern

Why i can't trade

because I don't follow simple rules. for now, i am going to set some up and read them everyday until i recite them in my sleep.

  • For now only trade 100 size to minimize losses
  • Don't let losers ride
  • Don't add to losers !!!!!
  • Wait for confirmation on all of your entries..
  • For now don't short above VWAP and don't go long below VWAP
  • Play the plays that have made you money in the past (bull flags)

Can't think of anymore at the moment, but will add some more later.
