Flat top setup on the 1 min chart. Entered long with a stop at 37.40. Covered first half during the spike and exited once the stock started to pull back.
I re-entered 2 more times when I shouldn't have since the stock was extended and needed time to rest. I ended up giving some money back because of it.
When I re-entered the fourth time the stock had formed a pullback setup. Mental stop at 38.20. Scaled out half when stock reached previous highs and then exited once the stock hit 39.
