Took very small position looking to add into strength however for reversion play however i traded poorly. I did not utilize higher T/F, didn't wait for price to show weakness. Exited when made flag and B/O.
Execution detail:

T/F = Timeframe. The 200MA on the 30min was 397. Price was extended when reached that resistance and subsequently reverted back to it's mean (shortly failing to roll and formed a flag that screamed get long). That reversion short entry would have been the low risk with a clear stop. I entered WAY too early with no sign of approaching any area of resistance. Good lesson for reinforcement purposes.
