Bought at a notch on a very small run up, definitely not a proper first bounce play. It dipped through that line and I had an entry near VWAP/my next line. When it popped sold some quickly as usual, then held the rest with a breakeven trailing stop.
Lesson: not bad overall, but I want to get better at setting wider trailing stops or setting a hard stop at breakeven. A couple times now it's downticked just enough to hit the trailing stop and then went back up. Part of trading, for sure, but because it's happened multiple times I think there may be something specific to how I'm setting them as well.
