Grade=C-

The setup: parabolic short. Had confirmation on the 5m chart that it had peaked. It was putting in a significant red candle after the sharp runup. I also wanted to practice adding to the position.

The result: Got the move, added a chunk, then got stopped out by a quick spike, visible on the 2m chart. Could have had the stop a bit wider I suppose, but I had just increased my risk with the add and that was a nasty spike.
