1st trade after being out sick all week. played an ORB using 3-min candles. bought it right as it moved above it's 20ema.
bought too few shares then double checked my # of shares cheatsheet and realized based on my entry point I could buy 2000 shares. was a bit chicken so bought 1000 instead.
once the flag had run up some sold half the shares. then noticed that the run-up was going sideways and the volume had increased on the sell candle so sold out the final 500 shares. especially since this was a counter-trend trade.
got out at 45.90. High was 46. pleased with that.
