I tried to play this to the upside earlier but I saw a triple tap breakdown around $2.57 area around 11:15 so I shorted it. It didn't flush as much as I expected so I got out. This stock has had a lot of momentum lately to the upside and wasn't extended enough to take a short yet. Maybe Monday or Tuesday this will flush down.
Stop: 2.62
Target: 2.42
Reward to Risk: 1 (Too low as well...overall not a good trade)

Yeah, 200 ma turning up and strong short term momo as well, probably wrong time to short.
Yeah I agree...I should've been looking at that point more as support and not a breakdown point. I'm noticing that I definitely am bearish since I look for shorts before I look at the long side. Will have to work on that especially with stocks like this!

2nd day breakout on strong volume. Not a good short attempt.
