The stock was bouncing off the 20SMA on the daily but reached the big resistance from the daily and started fading out after lunch time. Shorted on the flag breakdown but got stopped out on the spike at a penny. Had the right idead since it nicely tanked afterwards but my stop loss was too tight I guess so I missed a nice trade.

Yeah exactly, that was my thinking as well so I bailed out. It was quite messy one to trade intraday! Appreciate the feedback mate!

Tough luck on those spikes but better be safe than sorry especially seeing the way it moves when it goes up.
