Long 2 @ 1626.5. It broke the 1630 support and formed a huge 5m hammer, then came down to roughly 2/3 of the tail of that bar and formed another hammer. 16 ticks initial stop loss at 1 tick below the low of the day.

1st: Sell 1 @ 1629.0. It hit the 5m 20EMA, but was a few ticks short of the intended 30 ticks half target, I decided to take half profit anyway. 
2nd: Sell 1 @ 1625.6. Stopped out, 9 ticks slippage, ended up getting filled at the bottom tick.

NQ
Open:
Long 2 @ 2765.25. 60m Hammer, was looking for an entry point after yesterday's close that looked like it was getting ready to break out to the upside on the daily chart. Stop loss at 2754 at 2 points below yesterday's low.

Close:
1st: Sell 1 @ 2765.25. Wasn't comfortable with the idea of losing $300 per contract, took off half at break-even.
2nd: Sell 1 @ 2776.25.
