1st Target: $17.50 for 2:1 r/r ratio
Gain: $144 (2.1%)
Added to watch list from pre-market scan. Took trade on flag breakout but chased the entry as I waited for confirmation. Scaled out partial at $17.24 which was a bit early but I have a history of not taking profit soon enough. Second scale-out was premature as price was well above support levels. Moved stop-loss to $17.70 below support where I got stopped our for the remainder of the shares. Decent gain but I could have managed my exits better.
