Placed my stop above market structure. I manually watch the draw down and use the market structure stop for worst case. The profit target was reached.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?

The importance of not using a manual close. The market slipped my profit away on the first trade. On the second I let the ATM close at my target.

Target reached for the day. I normally do not trade a breakout but wait for a pullback . In this case the longer trendline was in this area of the pullback.

I had trouble getting filled at the trendline for this trade. I made money but entered too high for my comfort.
I tried a micro trade for fun as well.

Entered on a retracement but it went further to a previous resistance before going back into profit. I took a partial profit target.

With the markets closed, I am going back over the market movement with the ninjatrader replay. I am trying to see if I would recognize the same patterns. This is also a good time to work on my ATM settings.
