5 min flag break.... but my screw up here was user error. It started dropping so fast, by the time I set a sell and a limit i twas past that and then I'm trying to play catch up with my platform to get rid of the crap.
I guess the two lessons learned here are
1) set the auto stop and
2) if you need to bail then market sell

I did market sells a few times before and forgot to check spread. Got a few nasty surprises when the order closed. Now I use limit whenever I can. BTW, your trade didn't have much upside potential as there was HOD resistance at 18.20.
