CLOSE PAIR TRADE: IYT vs. QQQ

Closing out IYT vs. QQQ pair trade

Sell IYT @ $279.94 - Realized gain of $0.01 (0.00%)
Cover QQQ @ $391.08 - Realized gain of $4.63 (1.17%)

Total trade gain of 1.17%

The bigger the trade, the quicker the hook. And making 1%+ in a day is good enough for me - especially when it was 20% of my gross capital.

I'm trying not to get sucked into day-trading, but volatile markets with unbalanced downside vs. upside risk need to be treated with caution.
