Well it worked perfect for the most part. Not sure what happened when it hit the shitter, no news I saw.

Gapped up in the morning and kept tapping the 15 area, I had a limit in for .98 and it didn't fill. It popped a bit and I waited for it to come back a few pennies for me to get in. It set another flag and I doubled up on that one and scaled the first pop. Good thing too, because it immediately tanked and never looked back. Weird. Got $150 out of it.

entry bit extended, not bad overall

Yeah, definitely a few green candles in a row, but before that base and break of the first 5 minute candle there really wasn't a set up for me. So an entry before that would have just been a gamble with a bigger reward and risk, imo. I guess I could've waited for that first big pullback to support at 15 for a lower risk.

I got in around the same spot as you, and I think it just got tired. I keep the bolinger bands on my intraday charts (training wheels) it tapped it and didn't make a higher high and I too bailed.

Patti, it still shouldn't have dropped that quickly I feel, unless pure fear fed the sell. I kept searching for news to see what was going on, didn't find a peep.

I guess that's why we just follow the price action and patterns.
