You may notice I placed a sell order at the exact moment of a flush. The sell started with the majority of shares filling on a market order at 13.91 and flushed down .34, in a tiny fraction of a second, with a few shares selling at 13.57 the good news is I knew it was going to breakdown, the bad news is I failed to sell into the spike.

Nice trade Laurie. The entry might have been a little bit of a reach but still worked out.

I placed a sell order at the exact moment of a flush with the majority selling at 13.91 and a few going into the flush down .34 in a hot fraction of a second to 13.57. The really bad part of this trade was I failed to sell into the spike.
