I called an audible and went long at 24.54 with a 500 share position. My stop-loss was at 24.30 so I was risking $125 on this stock going long which I would not have been comfortable taking if it did decided to reverse. I am trading beyond what I comfortable losing to make up for the losses I take early on in the day. I need to become more aware when this begins to happen so my losses don't continue to grow. Fortunately, the stock did not reverse and I scaled out 100 shares at a time as the stock was nearing its highs. I held onto 100 lotto shares hoping for a breakout above 25.78 but the stock broke below the EMAs and I sold the lotto shares at 25.16.

Way to be flexible after the first entry on the short. Nice
