  • Setup: Daily flag break (continuation)
  • Entry: $28.93

  • Exit: $29.31/$29.37
  • Profit/(Loss) With Commission: $157.32

  • Details: Flag break on the daily. The major issue I see with this trade is that the real flag break was actually the day before. this was not a bad trade but it was much lower probability than if I had gotten on the day before. This is why I went in with small share size and a tight stop. It should be noted though that this is not a good habit to develop - stick to strong setups and don't reduce share size/stop width to compensate for a crappy setup!
