First trade I took was when price was pulling towards the 9 ema. Set a stop under it and was shaken out.
Second attempt price was on top of the 9 ema but was stopped out. Same thing happened with the thrid attempt.
On my fourth attempt I did something different, instead of waiting for the next pullback I went ahead and anticipated the move up by getting in once price spiked above the 9 ema. I put a limit order about .10 cents above the 9 ema and once I was in I placed my stop and let it rock.
My only regret of course is selling too early, I was eager to make back what I already lost.
