On this one 36.80 looked like an area of support. I had a stop limit order for 37 which kicked off even though price didn't really go there on the charts. I suspect it had a wide bid/ask spread which I ignored and got eaten. Plus this could have been managed as a r2g, brought me in the trade later and cheaper. It would also have stopped out, but that would have been the correct trade.
I think r2g is also cleaner on the parabolic moves - it should feel like a bounce, not a twitch. Either way, this was a bad trade.
