technical analysis: there was a resistance at 189.4 and the next resistance at 190.35, even though the important resistance was about at 191.3
Reading the tape: When I entered the position I saw a lot of activity on the tape, when 190.3 became a support, I noticed the strong buyers on the tape and I thought the price could not go down, and I bought 20 more shares, after that the price went down to 190.2 but soon I went back up more than 190.3 and increased my core with 20 shares more. When the price drops to 190 I close my position to avoid losses.
Trade Magement: The idea was to buy in the breaking of the resistance in 189.4, I lost it and I could enter the pull back at the price of 189.75. The idea was to leave when I saw that the price stops or that many sellers appear on the tape. I put a stop lost at 189.09. Look to increase the position in this trade but I hasten to increase the core from 100 to 140 in 190.3. When the price fell more than I expected, close the whole position at 190 with a small profit.
Trade review:I liked the selection of the stock, I was slow at the entrance and I ruined the trade by too quick to increase the position. I find it hard to understand why I should increase the position and how to move the stop lost.
Trade idea: possible second day play
