Daily: Earnings Breakout
Intraday 1: Bull flag - it was pulling back to the VWAP and the 9 EMA on the 5 min chart but I was watching the 1 min mainly. This entry was early and I was trying to time the bounce rather than wait for a little confirmation that this was going to hold. I got stopped out when someone slammed the bid with big size. It hit my stop, the bounced right back up.
Intraday 2: Bull flag - I got back in because this looked like a good trade even though my stop was too tight. I tried setting it again, and I accidentally hit market sell order which gave me another loss.
Intraday 3: Bull flag - When this started holding and curling up, I got back in for the last time with the correct stop. This formed a nice ABCD flag so when it looked like it was finally making the move upward, I added a little more. On this trade, I was able to make up for the other two losses before it, but this was still trade very sloppy.
