Bought when broke flag. Maybe I mis-drew the trend line. Sold when it dropped back into flag and dropped below 9SMA. I have no idea why this didn't work. I'm pretty close to my max loss for the day, but I don't want to be down for the week. I'm going to take a break to regroup.
Longed again because it made up the loss below, and it was going up. Stupid reason, I was being vengeful. Now that I'm in, setting stop below 9SMA. Stopped out.

Agree. This stock ran up so much in the morning I would have like to see it consolidate for a while before determining an entry point. Maybe an eod run if the overall market can rally a bit.
HMMMM i dont really see amazon as a stock that moves 30-40 dollars in a day.. it would seem illogical to buy this even if there was a falg
and ur first trade was not a falg or a setup ! think thse thorugh!

I've noticed that when a stock runs so hard so fast, it will take the rest of the morning to digest the gains. It will run again after 1:00 pm.
