Had originally played the short squeeze on the second green candle around 12:15 but spooked myself out of the trade. After trying to short this at the 20ema and getting stopped out I bought in immediately at the second test of the 20ema and for the down-trend was definitely broken. I sold just before the tap of the vwap and would like to say I should have held some for lottery but I have a hard time doing that just yet due to my lack of experience. Yes it did flag but I was worried it was going whip right back at me. Still really happy wiht this trade!

It rode the 9 EMA until it tested and broke the VWAP. If the 9 EMA had been shaky that would have indicated weakness to me. You can always scale out the position if holding it all makes you uncomfortable.
