Stock couldn't break down so was looking long but was in doubt due to the fact that is has a history of giving up its gains up. When it kept making higher lows and huge volume came in at the HOD break, I had to get in. Market has been choppy so I went for the quicker gains as I haven't been able to get the follow through wanted. I did respect all reasons to sell except for my last one where I had no reason to sell as it hadn't cracked any levels.
Not very happy with the discipline on this one as I left tons of money on the table.
Reasons to sell: spike (too fast), emotional (need to wait for a reason to sell for lotto shares)
