The first entry I wanted a breakdown below the channel but it never happened. Covered to protect at least a tiny amount of profits.
On the second entry, I committed to just riding the waves. Larger position but just capture .10 cents.
On the third entry it was looking weak not bouncing at all with lower highs and I entered with a tiny chase to see if the breakdown would happen. And it didn't, took .07 cent loss.
My trade idea of a possible breakdown today was supported by the recent gap up spikes on the daily. There was a good chance that there would be some profit taking and price pullback.
Trading tiny this month to regain consistency.
