Man, this was annoying. I sent two wrong orders today: this one and CBG in the morning.
I waited for this to clear that candlewick before taking the entry, since I thought that would be better confirmation. I'm not sure if this was a good move-- please let me know if you have an opinion on this. As a result, I was about 30 cents from my desired entry.
It flushed and I wanted to cover half. Instead I covered ALL of it. I felt much more confident today than I have since I started trading live. However, sleep deprivation still got the best of me.

I agree with stryker points. Additionally i think it was a good find, good intraday pattern, good entry, and set back up on another bear flag with the 9EMA rolling down (ended up yielding over +1 quickly)

your entry was and wasn't safe. you enter this stock before it brokje the 70 support, bad. it was the third tap so you were safer. I would enter this one top of the 5min candle you enter when it broke the 9ema. I like to enter there as my stop is tighter. my stop would've been the candle before...70.50. with your entry you had the same stopo as me. I might've even cauyght this near 70.50 with a 5-10 cent stop as it tap the 20ema and there was no volume to push this stock higher
lastly you could readded your half on the tap of the 9ema (15 min later)
