Short bias based on my Trade Idea found
- Unforeseen circumstances
- Target Reached, but couldn't make adjustments
This trade put me on tilt. I thought my executions were okay, I did the best I could do under the circumstances I was facing. I shorted this stock before I went to work. Initial little bear flag then added on the Pull Back to the MA. My target was the LoD. Unfortunately as soon as I got to work I found out I had a 10am meeting so I had to immediately cover 2/3rds. No chance to adjust my stop or do anything else. The meeting lasted an hour and a half and I was stuck.
But I really can't do anything about that right now. I guess the best thing I can take away from this trade is that I stopped myself before I shorted the beegeezus outta NFLX on a tilt move.
