I picked this up on my pre-market gapper scan. I was watching this on the 2 min chart to try to get an early entry. I bought in at the first pullback. I used low of the day as stop at 2.70. This could have gone pretty well, except I was in the middle of a bunch of day job stuff, and missed the top before the first serious pullback on the 5 min chart. I would have unloaded some around 3.10-3.20 had I been watching. When I thought I saw a bounce a bit later I re-bought in. Ended up being a small bounce, but I was early, and stopped out, giving back basically all of my meager gains from the first trade.
