Shorted a bear flag early on a multi-day setup. Shaken out of first trade after adding 50 more shares. Got back in on the low of a candle instead of shorting the high, The stock had a great gain, I kept moving my stop downward. My problem is that I was expecting it to go down to $32 and I did not cover into the volume spikes and got caught in the intraday bear flag.
