The first trade shows why it's important to watch stocks on multiple time frames. I was trying to buy on the first pull back. On the five minute chart it looks like there was pullback to the 9ema and then a slight bounce and then consolidation. But on the 2 minute chart it shows that it was just profit taking. Then it bounced off the vwap. Second trade I got stopped out on my stop loss too soon and third trade I should have gotten out as soon as the stock failed to breakout.
