Bought when it rose above the VWAP, with stop just below VWAP. Stopped out shortly afterward. There was no pattern, in retrospect, I was just antsy.

Bought again when it broke the flag upward. I placed a stop just below the trendline, target next most recent high of $31.52. Sold when it started to stall again (10:30 bar was neutral before turning green, just sat there). Was that the right choice?

Notice price support where you got stop out the first time. Stop should have been just under that level.
