Former runner that spiked big yesterday and ended up near breakout level today.
Didnt feel comfy buying the breakout out the open and ended up missing out.
Frustrating b/c i trade other stocks where there is no pattern or less chances of success and decided to not play this b/c i thought it was "too up"
Ended up frustrated with this since i missed an awesome run.
waited for the pullback to finish which was lower than i expected.
Ended up getting less size b/c I was scared with how far it pulled back.
Didnt readd when base held.
Sold part at resistance level.
Wanted to sell 1 more at next level but when I saw it was turning, I thought i oculd wait but ended up falling.
Got tilted by that and moved stop level up. Ended up getting stopped out right at my level and bottom ticked it before it made its run without me.
Saw multiple places to get back in but felt I was upset and was not seeing it clearly.
