I was a little bit to early on my first entry at 13.67. I got shook out when the stock dropped below the 9 EMA and sold off my shares at 13.46. I re-entered at the top of the flag at 14.12. The ideal entry would have been along the 9 EMA but I chased it. I sold off a half position at 14.60 and the rest as the stock broke below the the 9 EMA at 14.43. I should have been a bit more patient and wait for the stock to give stronger signs of weakness. Right after I sold the stock based, made a new high, but then flushed shortly after. Some improvements would be to grab a better entry where my risk is lower.
