I let this trade get too far away from me. Originally, I was sized in using the HOD as my stop. After adding in to my short, the amount of risk being taken increased substantially. I saw the grand, noticed the flag formation, but decided not to stop out in the mid .40's (flag breakout) and let it go to the HOD anyway as originally planned. In this case, I stuck to my plan which was good but I added to my short before any confirmation which was not part of the plan.
