Bought long when broke area of consolidation on 1-min chart. (Wasn't slowing down on 2-min or 5-min, so switched to 1-min just for entry. Stayed on 1-min because price was close to MAs on 1-min, far away on 2-min and 5-min.) Set stop just below trendline. This was up $1.50 by this point, and I should have waited for consolidation on the 5-min chart. Moving stop up as needed to stay under 9EMA on 1-min chart. Sold half into spike. Stopped out on last half, well above buy price - I set my stop a little too close.

Here is my 1-min chart:

Bought again when price appeared to bounce off 2-min 9EMA, with stop below. It did not bounce; stopped out. This was an impulse buy - I didn't look at all the timeframes at the same time, or I'd have seen the price was not done dropping. Profit on above trade wiped out.

Bought when price bounced up off 5-min 9EMA. Got crappy price because I was antsy to get in, and antsy means I need a breather; I will take a break to regroup after this. Set stop below 5-min 9EMA; will move up as needed to stay under 9EMA. Stopped out. AAHHHH! It was up so high, I should have sold half, but I got stuck on selling at $36.76 because that would have put me over $100 for today, that I refused to sell at the high of $36.75.

Took short break.

Bought when price bounced up off VWAP on 2-min and 5-min charts; set stop below VWAP. Stopped out.
