Recent swing high was 10.36. I'm curious why you did not add. You were so close !

Thanks for your comment.
You are right, I should have added. It was clearly a mistake.
Single entries and trades with 1 add, tend to yield o.k. stats for me.
The stats are poor, when I add more than once.

To be honest:
- I did not have the higher time frame in mind / didn't check. Beginner mistake.
- I was not 100% focused

On the other hand:
- I try not to do counter-trend trades before 9:45 AM; too early in the day
- Commodity (CENX is an aluminium company) stocks can be wild

Hindsight is bliss, but this was a mistake, yes. :(
