looking for a short,it grinder higher out of the gate, I was looking for a short at 19.50 or 20, it made it to 17.50 put in a high and I was looking for a lower high. When It pulled back hard, i watched and it spiked into the 9ema over the open and I shorted when that failed. Covered half on the flush and shortly after added double. I Cracked and ran to 13, and I covered half, I needed to leave shortly after and should have covered, but instead set a stop. I gave back way too much. I reshorted on the bottom of a bull flag for a breakdown it spiked and turned my trade into a loss. Bad Trade management on the exit and I should not have entered the last short.
