was trying to set my stop loss and set the target instead so it auto sold.. I just re-entered.
trying to practice setting my stop loss a little looser to allow for fluctuation and all that did was make my loss increase.
should have got out at 34.5 as the MAs were breaking down but I was busy at work and knew I had a hard stop so just let it run.

9 EMA pullback, but yeah those sell volume candles a few before were too high.
What do you mean gapped up to a weird spot?
I'm learning that if there is resistance overhead on gap up (like the R here at 36), it greatly diminishes the probability of it running.
It gapped between support and resistance. I saw it and passed
