Parabolic Short

I missed the first entry, had good discipline not to chase. Waited for a pullback, then got in. I scaled out according to plan, but I flat out missed the exit below $36 on the rest. The second try was a blatant chase. Luckily I only tried 50 shares. So in conclusion, I turned a $75 gain into a $9 loss.
