I wanted the breakdown after the lower high. I covered partial on the first dip and then it began to consolidate. I didn't like the action so I covered the rest for a small profit.
My entry was fair given the lower high but I should have focused on an add at $8.50 and as long as it doesn't reclaim and base at $8.50, I could continue with the trade. Hindsight analysis.
In any case, the price action wasn't perfect today not breaking below $8.
Trading tiny this month to regain/improve consistency.
