watching for a bear flag short on the daily, it gapped down overnight and ran up to the previous close, I thought it was rolling over and shorted. I completely mis read or predetermined in my mind what was supposed to happen. I should have flipped it, also didn't set my stop and took a bigger loss. Bad Trade, volume and velocity of the shot up should have been a clear sign it was a quick pullback buy and I should have been long, it would have made my day getting in at 47.50 running to 50.50. DAMN, I messed up.
