On the 1 min chart, I saw a bull flag forming that I liked. On the first attempt, I was way too early not letting it form completely. It wasn't really a flag at that point. I went in with really small size to test this, but this is bad. In the back of my mind if I go in with small size at first, then that means I'm not sure about the trade and I probably should not be taking it. On the second attempt, I really liked it because it looked good on the 1 min and 5 min charts. It also popped in the direction I was anticipating which confirmed my hypothesis. I went in a full position and got a decent trade out of it.
