By this point in the day I wasn't down but I was barely up. When this happens I usually start throwing darts at whatever I see and stop trading the chart. I was aware this was happening at the time but I did not listen because I was solely focused on making up for my poor trade management decisions in the morning. This stock was running into a war zone on the daily. I was to zoomed in to notice this and I seen the stock testing the 13.12 level all day while also making higher lows. I went long 500 shares at 13.14 as soon as it broke this level. I was using a mental stop on this at 13.04 but did not follow it. Instead, I ended up selling directly on support at 13.08. Although the daily chart was ugly, if I would have been a bit more patient and followed my stop I could have potentially caught the second breakout to 13.32. Nonetheless an ugly trade and one that should have been passed on.
