January 6 - SLB

In choppy days like today, I tend to stick to the 5 or 15 min chart, but for some reason, today the 1min chart made more sense than the others.
My first entry is on weakness at the PDH ($49). That level was tested yesterday without success. The second entry was a triangle play. The range contraction lead to the expansive move down. Price found support at $47.70 which was the ascending 20MA in the 15 min chart.
I am still trading with fear to loose and in the "trading not to loose" frame of mind. I need to trust the setups I see and keep the original stops in place. It was a positive day, but it could have been much better.

damn... that second entry was sick. Congrats and nice rebound.

I like your second entry. The 15 MIN chart looked great - NRIB. The moving average cross pushed it down nicely.
