Intraday flag break. I had been watching this since the $12.70s and finally decided to enter when it broke $13...of course that was a bad idea since I got filled at $13.20 and then required nearly a $1 stop. Even so, it was a pretty nice entry and since I only had 300 shares even w/ a very wide stop I was only risking $300. I could have afforded to let this one run like it should! I was even talking to a friend at the time and argued that a $1 stop was ok because it was gonna run to $15, then I sold out at $13.70 like a pansy! I had the right idea but my head wasn't in the game! Anyway, nice % gainer but crappy trade overall IMO.
