Summary

SPY had a sharp drop and started gaining momentum back. VXX lower lows right after that and that was the entry. The bars were bigger and we had a small gap up in price on the 5m bar right before the top. Unfortunately it didn't keep going so I stoped out when we took out the previous high, taking almost half of my risk. The doji at the bottom with big volume made me want to get out early.
