Bought 100 shares at break of flag but failed to "see" the $1.00 run-up. This stock needed more time to rest and even at that because of the last days extreme trading it might not have gone anywhere.
Stopped out -$23.00
Tried again and I waited until towards the top of the flag to buy which is better than I have been doing but in this case I should've waited for a higher flag break for confirmation. I did make a little but thought the move wasn't going to hold.
+$10.50
Tried again once price went over $7.20 and got a little in but the price move didn't hold.
