Nice earnings gap up on clean Daily chart, expected the stock to go up so I entered for a long during the consolidation so I would have small risk. Stock went up too slightly for me to take a profit. Then broke the support and I got stopped out. Not sure why the stock didn't run up but this is not a game of prediction, I need to follow what price action is telling me. Small loss. Good process, esp while balancing looking at 7 other stocks & trading off my phone!
Could have gotten back in for the short but I would have needed more focus and less other things going on to do that at that point. Hopefully I'll grow into that focus.
