My stop should have been set a little higher. Got stopped out of a perfectly good flag

Broke resistance. I believe it was the right exit point. But... you didn't get back in?

One thing I've done poorly is to give up on a stock that is in play after my first loss in favor of other unknown stocks.

yeah you're absolutely right I should have gotten back in around the following candles. I do tend to do that too, if a stock causes me to lose money I will forget it. Not to my benefit. I also think my stop should have been a little higher but all in hindsight,
