Bought long when tapped against flag trendline a third time and rose above it, with stop just below trendline. Stopped out. (Should have bought when it passed VWAP at same time on 5-min and 2-min charts. How can I see this next time?)
Got in again when I saw it was consolidating, because I was sure I was right and that my stop was just too close; set stop below VWAP. Sold half into spike; moved stop to buy price on second half. Sold another fourth into spike. Sold another eighth into spike; moving stop up so it stays under 9EMA. Didn't recognize next buy spot (pullback to 9EMA?) or I'd have bought more! Stopped out on last portion.
Here is where I drew my trendline:
