Summary
Totally fumbled this trade. Had the right idea, but poorly executed it.
Did Right
- Had a good plan, and waited for the move
- Honored my stop, but also got back in when I realized trade had topped out
Did Wrong
- Started too early
- Didn't size into the backside of the move once it actually started working
Improvements
- Try to work on adding into these trades once they start working as planned, otherwise I risk just making back what I lost on front end.
