I made the cardinal sin of allowing my 3 earlier loser trades mind$#%& me. I entered a tad early here with an original stop -2, Target +5, +7 which both were hit and then some and stop never hit. In hindsight that 390 was a natural test place but i ended up prematurely moving my stop up thus taking a loss on what should have been a mechanical trade. Good reinforcement of controlling emotions and trading the chart.

Respect your original stop loss. You set it there because you are able to take the pain!

I'm sure this shakeout got a lot of us. Great entry though.
