Entered on Horiz Break of 92 and price moving above ma's. Entered with small size (because my success rate on Horiz break in a choppy market is low). The plan on entry was to exit at break below 92 which would invalidate the setup. Traded on hopium the rest of the way down until I exited. Good Entry, horrible execution of exit plan.

Idea stop was 91.99/.98. Once it broke back under that round number $92, that is when you have to get out.
