Bull flag. Stock consolidating, anticipating a b/o, entered 100 shares @ 142.70. Sold at HOD, too early really, but have been burnt too many times with this stock, so would rather take the profit, then see me give it all back. +$99 profit.

Thanks guys. Kunal, I was happy with my entry, and I liked the look of it. My first target was +1, and second target +1.50. I sold half at a gain of 1.08. I understand that I should be capturing points, but I have given profits back on this stock so many times, so wanted to take some this time. I should have let the last half ride with a stop at the buy price or at the 143 level. I will create hard a fast reasons to sell and stick to them for future.
