What do you mean? I am not sure that I understand. Are you saying it was overextended?
Yes it was to extended when you entered. $26.50 was Idea entry. Also consider how many days in a row a stock has moved looking at the daily chart. $MU was up 4 days in a row so trying to go long will start getting tricky.

Looking at the 5min chart, you needed to get as it was coming out of range for a scalp trade. Anticipate the breakout.
