Intraday flag break. I was a TINY bit early on the entry as the volume hadn't come in yet but it confirmed in the next candle above $7.50. I cut the last 300 shares at $7.62 because I hit my daily goal and it was starting to look pegged anyway. Not a terribly strong % gainer but a decent trade nonetheless.

hey good sell! u had the perfect mindset sometimes these stocks can sell off eod anyways u did good getting out. and prerfect timing. one thing i do think is u should have gotten this stock closer to 7.4 to limit ur risk.
Thanks kunal! I can never tell whether it's better to wait for confirmation of the break of hod (7.48) and get confirmation, or limit risk like you said by anticipating it at 7.4ish. I think maybe if the volume were more convincing in the 7.4 area I might have been more apt to take it there but it did make a higher low so I could have used that for additional probability too!
