Play: Pullback - 500 shares
Mistakes: Not good risk management since it went down to 39 after i bought it. Hadn't set a stop. Still having trouble with entering stocks as I don't want to wait for confirmation (in this case as it would have been too extended) or be in a situation where it goes against me.

Nice exits! Scary to watch it drop that much after your entry though.
On the pullback I usually wait for the first green candle after the pullback itself to hit it or sometimes it will even have a mini flag you can hit!
Nice job on scaling out Jonathan!
