CPE was on my watchlist for a Rubberband short. Missed the initial breakdown at opening. Shorted stock at $7.15 when it was about to break an intraday bear flag. Made a data entry error when placing my Stop. Meant to set it at $7.24 but instead set it to $7.14 and got stopped out before I noticed my mistake. Note to myself: always double-check my data entry before hitting the "SEND" button.

Its hard but if click the wrong button, get back in if setup is still valid. That was a great short entry.

I love it when we learn these lessons - but too bad we learn them the hard way. Good thing you didn't make a BIG error, that wasn't bad at all.
