    maybe it was the drop in oil price as someone mentioned above. Ie oil went up alot then it came back down?

  10. Two trades:

    1/ Long ~10460, exit ~10505 (+45ticks)

    2/ Short 10508. exit 10513 (-5ticks)
    this one was supposed to be a quick trade, smaller size, YM traded @ profit tgt 10498, but I got no fill.
