I was watching for pr breakout continuation. I knew there was resistance overhead but misjudged my resistance level. I bought on what I thought was a quick pullback buy after it broke resistance. I looked away to enter another trade without place a stop, when I looked back I was down $300. I got emotional and thought it would bounce but it kept dropping. I was doing better about placing physical stops but screwed this one up. I should have waited for confirmation I suppose on this trade. Also, I should have exited once realizing the trade turned against me.
