this trade is not in the plan - I over covered the short by hitting the qty button twice.
luckily I found it early and had the chance to get it out.

I didn't have enough time to scalp since Aug.
I can barely have a focused trading session as my work was constantly interrupted.

So, I transitioned into swing trading.

The advantage of the swing trading is that the holding period is longer, which can have higher tolerance against price move with a small position.
The downside is that I have been doing scalps in the past couple of years, so I don’t know if the new trading method can make stable profits.

Hope everything goes well!
