CBI Trade on Jun 27, 2017 13:12 from d3totherescue: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Bear flag--didn't lock in any profits and took .04 as opposed to .40. That is why it is important to put orders out there for the cover.
$19.00 was support level, and I saw selling, so I took a short. That area was support for about 1 and 1/2 hours, so when it broke I was looking for a larger move. But the move never came. That is why I sized up, but forgot to put in orders.

Lesson from the trade:

1.) Set partial orders for fills after the trade has been executed
2.) Keep reading the tape and L2 to see if there will be continuation in the stock
