Got the direction totally wrong. Short at 178.5, then immediately swing high to 179.5 and forced to cover. Bad trade. The first trade at 178.73 I made money and mis-lead myself into a short bias.
What I did Right: First short got inverse hammer.
What I did Wrong: Second short is very bad. Hindsight it is a bull flag setup.
Where I could improve: I am not good at shorting. Need to develop a better setup for short entry.
