CL +.08

This is classic not paying attention and not getting ready to trade for the day. Please look at the chart. Notice the blue arrows where I got out of the trade. I had my ATM strategy set to scalp instead of runner which I usually start the day with. I got in on a pull back and immediately hit my first target. Unfortunately, I did not have my ATM set right because in one second price moved 20 ticks right away in my favor. Notice on my chart where it shows target hit. Down at the bottom of the move. I didn't get anything but the four ticks. That put me in a bad mood so I sat on the sidelines for the rest of the trading action which was very good. Lots of runner action. Still was positive for the day...
