MX Trade on Feb 13, 2015 09:51 from EliBrown: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

I had a decent entry on this but would have liked to get it closer to the MAs. I should have been scaling out throughout the breakout like I normally do. I hate to admit it, but greed got in the way. I was expecting a stronger gap fill as the stock gapped down 50%. I doubled up on the flag but it did not hold, triggering my stop just below the MAs at 7.51. This resulted in a flat trade for what should have been a gain.
