Trading 20-Nov-2015 ( - $126)
Watchlist: ADSK, ANF, FL, ROST, SPLK, WDAY
ADSK > After gap down and reject of the open I was biased short. Took some short on basis of offer holding below the $60.00 level. Then was shaken out on the spike up. Should really have re-entered if I could have maintained my composure. Then the subsequent fall thru $60 was too fast and I didn't want to chase the short.

Trading 19-Nov-2015 (- $167)
Watchlist: BBY, CTRP, GMCR, NTAP, SINA
NTAP > Premise was to Short after it fell thru previous days close and tried to pullback. It has been ok in past, but price action was very spiky early on and so perhaps should have left it alone.
SINA > Initially strong but then fell strongly past Open and yesterdays close. So I was shorting on the pullback and looking for the $50.00 level to break, but it held and so I exited with a loss.

Trading 18-Nov-2015 (+ $150)
Watchlist: ARMK, JACK, LOW, TGT
TGT > Gapped down and fell thru the Open with market strong. I played the quick pullback to the $71.00 level as the bids failed to hold the whole number. The subsequent move was too fast with no pullbacks so I was unable to add to my position.

Trading 17-Nov-2015 (- $82)
Watchlist: A, DKS, NUAN, TJX, URBN, WMT
WMT > The premise was being long as it was staying above the Open even though the market was weakening and also some increased bid activity on the drops. The numerous pullbacks caused some shaking out and re-adding as it seemed to be weakening. Didn't have the staying power to wait for the eventual smooth out later in the day.

Watchlist: ATHM, CF, COTY, FEYE, LCI, MCHP, MET, MGA, PRU, QCOM, TDC, WFM
ALB > Premise as short on pullback. Annoyed as I got side-tracked and failed to add then it fell fast and didn't want to chase.

Trading 04-Nov-2015 (+ $171)
Watchlist: CBS, CERN, CTSH, HLF, FOXA, SSYS, TWX, VOYA
FOXA > Premise as short once it held below the open pivot and the market was holding positive. The second partial came back to breakeven. Maybe missed a trick on not re-entering as it did remain negative. But I had closed down by then and missed the big fall.

Watchlist: ADM, AIG, AMAG, CAR, CIT, MBLY, MOS, VMC, ZTS
Notes:
CIT > Premise was to be short as it failed to regain the open. It was bouncing around a bit, so I was actively managing , but then closed out as it kept above the open.
