First of all I'd like to admit that I don't get the stock market sometimes, today for example I started -200$ on my swings, and after about 25 minutes in I was up already, I'm not sure how can it be but.. I'm happy anyways :)
Today I went to a wedding so I didn't trade, only to come back after hours and see that AAPL is going +11$ after market, so my immediate thought was "hmm, I wonder if it hit my price target.." and it did, my target was 180$ and the stock is up to 185.9, so I just sold my position as described in the following screen shot:
Weired day today, but I'm happy I've got to earn some bucks after all of the harsh time that the market has put us through.

Glad the AAPL worked out for you! I'm always amazed at those who can stick to their rules like that. I'm sure that if I had AAPL for swing I'd be waiting for $200, even if my target was $180.
Good discipline. I hope it pays off for you down the road, I'm sure it will.

Thanks, I'm working hard on my discipline lately, so it is nice to hear positive feedbacks.
BTW the last time I used ISLD route was when I used too much of my margin (3:1 instead of 2:1 overnight swing) and I just had to sell a stock afterhours, so ISLD provided the best execution.
