I was looking at a day long consolidation with the stock skirting above the 20 sma on the daily and thought there would be an end of day run. I paid a little high the first time for partial position and bought on the dip closer to the 9 ema for the other part of the position. Then as luck would have it for me today, I saw that one red candle and sold directly on support. I tried it again right after it bounced and paid too high. I sold out at the end of day. I do believe it was poised to go higher but no such luck for me today.
