What a flush. Should have left this alone. Thought we'd get a small bounce over $10.50. Just kept trending down.

Exactly, there was no support. Impulsive trade. With the type of trade I was going for you can't wait for obvious support. Look at that bearish 5 minute candle. This isn't a stock I would normally trade (Higher float, institutional owned/transactions), but it was the main stock in play today and wanted to take at least one trade on it. Hence the small size. A better entry would have been around $10. Once it broke 10 I tried to get out on the ask just under 10. Then cut the loss as it kept selling off.
I got in at 9 when the stock confirmed it was holding the opening price multiple times. to me it showed bulls were interested and were overpowering the bears at that opening price. I sold some into 9.30 and the rest at HOD should've held a piece but wasn't patient enough.
Nice trade. Guess you took a partial at $9.30 because it was VWAP? Over VWAP my next target would have been just below $10. I watched TRCH last week and didn't like the price action. It was better today (i.e. more volatility). Bigger swings, less grinding. I don't like these institutional owned/transacted higher float stocks. There tends to choppy algo manipulation and random flushes.

try to get in closer to support man, try to avoid chasing stocks especially big gappers at the open breaking HOD. but good job cutting loses
