Bought when passed price level; tanked before I could set stop order, sold when I passed my max loss per trade. Wasn't good buy, was only second tap.
Bought again when it really did pass price level; set stop below. Sold half into spike. Had to cancel stop order to sell another half into huge spike, and it dropped a whole dollar before I could, putting me negative on the trade. Not sure how I could have improved that except to be super-fast.
According to my rules, I won't get into this trade again today, because I feel angry, so I'll likely revenge trade.
Here is where I drew my trendlines:
