Can i ask you a question? On a gap up, how come you were looking for a short? What are you looking for in these situations? I did the same on SCTY. It gapped up but i went long yet everyone went short (and they were right to).

I was watching it throughout the day and didn't see any entry in the morning. It started to roll over in the afternoon and the MAs were down-trending. When it broke a bear flag I took the short position.
