The setup: bear flag / flat bottom breakdown

The result: I caught the move and got out with the a .75/share gain. Not bad, and I wanted to get out of this and lock in a profit. It ended up bouncing a bit the next day and then continuing downward.

The lesson: I could consider a tighter stop to allow me more shares and keep the loss equal, while still being able to let the setup play out.
