SWING--Green candle at 9EMA after a breakout on 1/19. set initial stop at 45.50, looking to attain previous high of 49. Accidentally chose the wrong order type, limit order instead of stop limit order in an effort to increase my stop price. Stock sold @ 48.07, fortunately the stock hung lower the following day. I received and answered a phone call while placing my order. Mistake!! Could I have held out for more, or repurchased?
Gain of $162, 19.98 fees Swing trade tied up funds for 12 days.
