ZIOP was overextended on the daily and I wanted the pullback to continue but instead it held up.
I was a bit aggressive to short it at 9:40am. I should have let a trend form and reveal itself before taking a position.
The second trade was a chase and a complete mistake. FOMO got me with the hope of a breakdown.
After this green day, it continued down with 3 more red days and touched $8.
