Intraday flag break. First buy and sells were perfect, and that was a really nice trade. Second buy was good but it faked everyone out with that huge volume spike so I got out for a small loss once it proved $55 to be solid support. Yes, I could have held it but it wasn't worth it since the market was very extended and playing in a tiny range after a big gap up. There were a lot of weird things going on so I just decided to bail. I suppose I could have just had a little more patience with the second half and allowed it to bounce $55 and held to EOD, which would have prevented me from trying to rebuy and taking a loss.
