ICLD I have been watching for a bull flag break on the daily chart for a swing opportunity. I had an alert that fired around 15.75, and it was breaking a flag on both daily and 5 minute, so I bought in. Fill was not great, I used VWAP on the 30 minute for support. Realistically I was too high up for this position size as a swing, and my stop was too tight.

Easy money was over. It had already made a $1 move from 14.90.

Don't know what I was thinking. Intraday the entry was not ideal, but my target was 20 over the next few days if it went. I needed at least $1 stop under where my entry was. Lower entry point would have substantially lowered the risk to do that.
