I got out because it was not my idea, even though it was flagging and I knew the spike was coming. I chased and followed, and that is not a good way to trade.

You nailed it: huge chase and you know what was wrong with it. Got lucky that you were able to get out flat. Always consider how extended the 1 min and 5 min charts are. Anything more than 2 candles up is usually a huge chase.
