You think buying on confirmation of the bounce would have been better here rather than anticipation?

Well the thing with this one is I saw the volume on the initial green bar after the pullback and figured as long as I took it within the next one or two low volume reds with stop under support it would offer me better risk/reward than if I waited for confirmation a buck later. But my problem may have just been impatience and improper sizing compared to risk. I've been playing 30-80 buck socks and was out of practice on my math for this one O:-)
