I really don't want to talk about this... This was tough.. Got this after the bounce off the VWAP... Got a little scared at first, but then saw the flag pattern and got pretty excited. I thought this thing was going to be repeat performance from yesterday.. So I sat on it and didn't take profit. Bit me in the butt.. Yea, it came back a little but as traders, we cut loses and move on sometimes.. Can't worry about "hindsight".

Remember ROUND NUMBERS. Big stocks move predictably between them. In my experience, 9x out of 10 you buy a stock at 31.90 it will fail at 32. If it doesn't fail at 32, it will fail near 32.50. Should have taken the goods at $32.40 since the setup wasn't that strong anyway. Not bad though you lost two cents on a $32 stock, which is...0.000625%.

Lol good risk management :)
