this was a very frustrating trade. sold part at recent highs, and kinda felt extended. then got stopped out on buy price, knowing full well if i sold at 6.71 it would prolly fall back to 6.6ish as that was the most recent low. i was trying to get back in, but couldn't get filled at the price i wanted. then when it crossed the 20sma it was back around my 6.71 price from before so in my brain i said "i was trying to enter at 6.6ish, this is where i sold last time, i can't buy back in here" then it took off to 7.20 which is what i playing it for all along. ema's were quite caught up yet. it was just so frustrating, i was watching it for over and hour and did exactly what i thought. and this was a similiar pattern to the one i played in AMBA the day before which i nailed. not this time.
