Chased the entry on this longside short breakdown. If you could zoom in on the chart you'd see the breakdown was actually $51.70 and I had been watching that area for a while and just missed it so I chased. Because I chased it I decided to get out. I tried to hit it later when it actually confirmed the breakdown but couldn't get a decent fill.

Good for you for getting out without too much pain! I've decided to writing into my rules something about chasing trades. It's so easy to do, but it really doesn't work.
