If the daily chart was clean and crisp like that intraday flag your result probably would have been a lot different.
It also came up all the way from 76.50!
@sayed: this stock has had a daily range over $5 a number of times in the past few months. When I looked at it, trying to assess if it was too extended I looked at the range, looked at the flag, looked at the support level, thought that 3.5/75 is < 5%, so I took it. Is this wrong thinking?

Tough trade. Sloppy daily chart.
