Daily parabolic. Looked to swing this short but mismanaged and broke rules.
Ideally should have had -$.25 stop as would have been higher low thus negating the pattern that got me short. Then look to reshort on the next setup. Instead i reverted back to old behavior and added to the loser, thus again reinforcing no matter what i think or how i feel, to take the loss and reassess.

UPDATE: Still like the short under 13 however did not trade it well. Should have taken -.25 loss and reshorted when wouldn't break above 13.
