Mistake and I see it now. Stock broke down on big volume bar with big down price move. One more down bar on a little bit less volume and then a double bottom that I missed. Stock runs up back, nice strong price bars but not much volume and as it hit price resistance I decided to short it. Not the best idea. It kind of looked like for a second that it could be a bear flag, that is truth, but I had 10 SMA and 21 EMA right underneath the price and mov avg were pointing upward.
Set up: NOOOO
Stop: 23.90
Would I make this trade with real money;? yes
Clean chart : Kind of choppy that pattern looked like in the morning so NO
