Day Chart: large green candle on volume

Buy: pullback held the 9 and 20 and started flagging. bought when it closed above 9 but was partial filled and ended up buying rest higher.

Order:
price
9 (rising)
20 (rising)
stochastics - postitive

Sell: I was going for a 3x breakout, it peaked through highs then returned to the MAs. Should have been a clue to sell but lessons from previous trades, I need to be more patient and let the stock work itself out. Once the MAs couldnt hold, I sold out.

Lesson: The entry was key. Had I had the patience to let my partial fill complete (it spiked higher and gave me the FOMO), I would have been in a position to sell the pause around $2.50 because that would have been a decent enough move. Cray stock broke out in last 2 5min bars to the new highs.
