Should've been a quick scalp. I didn't take profits on the double bottom and it went against me. Could've also gotten 40 cents on double bottom with a 5-8 cent stop-- I really sensed that it was coming.
2/8: This is a type 2 based on what I knew at the time, but this would be a Type 4 now. I have trouble with these kinds of trades. My win rate on these kinds of trades is too low. It's hard to pick a spot with high R:R.

Nice short spot on daily and intraday, seemed a little too loose on the stop
