I gave up some really easy profits here by adding at a bad spot. There was no reason for me to reshort. The daily didn't support it.

2/9: I appreciate Mark's compliment, but my conviction was WAY off here. One should only add shares if a secondary setup has formed. In this case, the stock tried to pull up to the MA (evidence that the short wasn't working.

Nice, i like the conviction of adding to winners. It's something i'd love to develop but need to get consistently green first.
