CSC 800 shares and re-entry of another 800 shares
Daily. GAPPED UP. Broke long time flat top breakout resistances waiting for entry

1) Entry 52.74 Perfect FLAG/FLAT top entry with MA support
2) PURCHASED ANOTHER 800 shares @ 53.13 FLAGGED
3) SCALED 800 @ 53.36 First pop
4) COVERED 800@ 53.36 IMPROPER STOP

Mistakes: HUGE MISTAKE setting stop order of my last scale out price and getting stopped out. Missed out on HUGE GAINES here. No excuses this was a terrible job of trade management with improper stop order.

PROFIT: $688

Great entry, nice gain too, but exit could have been better. You did make money though, so that's always a plus.
