this stock was a real shit today. breaking out on the daily on earnings. entered in a flag/orb break. moved my stop up when the break held then that big nasty red candle stopped me out.

@iStryker.
thanks for the comment. I wish I had read it a bit earlier. as I just bought HDS on a pullback as I missed the break at the open and got stopped out.

ok this is a tough one. I just told TomB that he should've locked in profit early on http://www.tradervue.com/shared/trades/910031. This one is different as it was breaking to 52 weeks high, and should've kept running. I would've let it run. HOWEVER look at the daily, on stockcharts.com. http://scharts.co/QfkJj7 see all the black candles. This stock is a gapped that fades, I wouldn't trust it. I don't know if I would've sold half, a the top. I probably would've been out flat.
I'm surprise it closed where it did and didn't give it back.
