Just saw my first increase

Just got my first scorewatch with an increase. We opened a $300 credit card last month with the credit union so when it first showed up we dropped 5 points. Second month score jumped 19 points with a balance of $229 of $300. I paid it down to an $11 balance so hoping to see another score jump on next report. Slow but steady I guess next to tackle all the collections currently waiting on a response for PFD letter on 6 accounts.

Current my FICO 653.
Mid score from mortgage app 690
