Sorry for the late update, have been busy trying to find an international broker.
Here are my results:
KSO (and perhaps ESI) was the only share that I should have entered into today.
I guess I might start making a rule of using at least one tick down because it has saved my skin many times. KSO would've been in the green; TSVand TSN wouldn't have been in the red.
What a difference 1 tick down makes!! Instead of sitting at +2.5% for the day, it wiped out about 8% of my portfolio. This sets me back significantly.
The lessons learnt from this day will be memorable.
