Watching because...

* 4% mover intraday

Took trade because...

* Flag break

Sold partial but got impatient with the rest - don't know why it never violated the moving average. ?/?/?/

Sayed, I think it is FEAR of losing what I had already gained. My next benchmark is to scale out better into the move upwards and hang on to the rest unless my rules are violated!!!

Nice trade. I have the same issue and it still hurts to give profits back but the way I see it, either you give y-amount back on a few trades but you might make y times 2-3 if you stick to your rules and sell only when you have a reason to sell which will make up for the ones you gave back. Hope this helps.
