Setup: Breakout of HOD & Bull Flag
- Bought the breakout of the High of Day, in which the market was also holding up okay
- Sold half on the initial push to minimize risk
- Added back some as the stock pulled back, but showed signs of support
- Added more size again as the stock broke out of a smaller Bull Flag
- Sold in different portions, but sold eventually sold all within the same time frame as the stock rapidly pushed higher
** MISTAKE was not holding onto some as I had planned, in which the stock reached my full target price! All indicators had lined up once again (ema's, vwap, green on the day); I traded my P&L instead of the chart, which cost me big!
