Entered in anticipation of the bearflag breaking to the downside.
Got caught out in the runup that followed and sat on a large loss for a long time as I had messed up my stop order.
When it came back down to within spitting distance of my entry I thought about exiting for a small loss, but then decided to hold on as it was now moving down.
Needless to say it then went back up.
Bad trade management and a bad loss.
