my thesis on this stock was that if the market became bullish, which it did for part of the day, the stock would head up to test the 50dma. On a stock like this, it broke that flat top it made by a penny and that's just not enough room for confirmation on a $100 stock. This was a trade that just didn't turn out!
I'm sad that I risked the most of the whole day on this trade because of what I was looking for on it, I thought it could be a huge gain, even if it just went back to test the high of the day.

If it were .piercing through the lower bollingerband I would have considered it for a bounce play.
