morning flag/pullbacks. i always overtrade when a stock is forming a flag. i get in at the start of a flag, playing price supports/ema bounces. first trade was exactly that. i started to see that it was forming a flag, so i waited for the coiling. took a 1000 shares along on the first run, sold all. waited for a pullback, for a second entry, took the flag. i usually don't trade ema pullbacks because i've a bad record, but i decided to go for this one. my last trade, took the pullback to 9ema, only held for .20-.40 when it could've went for 1.00+, but oh well.
I've become fairly good at recognizing setups, but that's the easy part. I really need to learn how to allow my trades time to run, not just selling when im green on the trade.
