entry point was after confirmation on pennant.
should have scaled out twice, thought it would push higher and left for lunch.
lesson learned, never hold anything before going out for lunch.
then chased it all the way down..
tried to catch a bounce but no good. lost a few dollars on the last trade.

Oh man. You had it! If you have to go to lunch, go ahead and set a conservative auto-sell where you think there would be resistance. Like for this, if you look at the 30-min chart back to March 20th, I might have set an auto-sell around 3.25......and another one around 3.45. Doesn't always work, but is better than not setting anything.
