shorted on the breakdown of the support set a stop above and let it ride. Could have held on some more though

A lot of head fakes today. At least let it violate the 9ema, then sell. Or sell half, let the other half ride.
Yes I should have my reasons to sell written right next to me. That seemed to me my Achilles heel today. Thanks for pointing this out guys! thats why I love these trade reviews
Dude the same thing happened to me today. I got sick of waiting and sold at a small loss. Only for it to make the move I thought it would after I had gotten out.

I know it's tough when you see a candle start to sink and then reverse up $0.20, but it was just coming back to test $57, and the volume wasn't giving you any warnings that it was a reversal. It didn't make a higher high, nor did it break the EMA (I don't know what your reasons to sell are, but these are a few of mine). I may have been shorting that area as it came back to test $57.
