Decent entry on the 1 min but on the 5 it was extended. Nice quick spike down too for a decent gain. My suggestion (for what it's worth), if trading off the 1 min, you gotta be nimble and take off according to the 1 min.

ya it was extend, if you wanted to should be at a whole number break, 12 in this case. Again, how did you not take some off the table, if you entry was 11.59, you should've taken some off 11.00-11.10 (stock went to 11.04)

one thing I do when I short, is draw fib retracement lines. Look for spot it could bounce and cover before or after you see it bounce there. I wish Kunal taught this. http://www.screencast.com/t/szjFQ8S8QsJ

(I use to go long on fib bounces, but I found most of them became 1:1 risk:reward trades, so I stop)
