Play: Flag
Great looking flag, got in when it bounced off 9ema and seemed ready to go with volume. It did and just stalled around. Had a quick dip and got wicked out at stop loss. Wanted to re-enter on break of 29.4 but didm't get filled.
Need looser stops on these stocks with big spreads.

At the time, I didn't feel like it was tight because it kept creeping in my direction and expected it to rip anytime until that wick. I am trying to scale into positions (tried today but failed miserably haha) but this does allow for a looser stop until it rips where you can add

This is beautiful, very unfortunate on the stop. I have not had a chance to review my trades yet, but I made this exact trade as well. I think my stop was 28.75 or something like that. I tried to get back in before it went, but was seconds too late.

Sick entry. You nailed that entry. Terrible stop. One thing i've been working on is scaling as i used to get stopped ALL THE TIME. I just recently had a killer swing in GPRO w/ this exact setup. Wouldn't you know i never got filled to full position on the P/B as missed it by pennies.
