I took this as a swing. It was oversold and has been pulling back for over a week. On the 30-minute chart, it looked like it had held the 20dma. I set my stop at the bottom of that low candlewick.

I exited too early and was unable to take any profits from this. I didn't honor my stop and exited at what turned out to be the bounce spot. It went up 10 cents soon after.
