originally anticipated the $79.00 breakout by getting in a starter position at 77.86. That was good. added at 78.88 when it was close to breaking, that was fine too. Sold at 78.18 for a small loss when it failed, even THAT was fine. My mistake was again anticipating with 100 shares after that. I should have waited for it to confirm the $79 break before re-entry. I lost 90% of this loss on the 2nd trade.
100 shares each trade
