Shorted based on my classic overbought + fighting pivot levels setup. PLUS this had daily resistance at gap up, top of range level. With all those catalysts, it still never flushed even for a quick short. I covered at EOD since it was a Friday (didn't want to hold over the weekend yet) and that I needed to arrange personal finances. Next day however, it did give the move I anticipated so the daily swing idea to cover at bottom of breakout day's range did play out in the next few days. Swing trading skills are there because I'm remaining objective. I must remain objective and unbiased. Note to self - if I start getting frustrated it's because I'm too biased in my ability and feel the market will do what I see and not that I see what the market can do.
