Picked up the stock on my intraday scan and after gapping up premarket waited for an intraday setup to develop. Entered the trade on a flag breakout and exited early since I had to go out and stop trading.
Now I see what I have left on the table but I am glad I did a decent trade after all in term of spotting the setup and playing it out.
Execution detail:
Thanks James, appreciate the comment!
Somehow I missed the ZLC completely, had it on my watchlist but simply could not track every single one item on a single laptop screen and in the end got carried away with another obviuosly worse plays :)
no problem. I missed those plays too :(. Oh, I traded ANAC twice and I forgot. just shared those trades also.
Any reason you did not buy on the pullback, but rather on the rise?
Entry could have been better. $9.37 the break of the 9ema should have been the entry IMO for a decent scalp.
@Wes:
No reason really Wes, I will usually buy it on the pullback but to be honest I missed it this time since I was looking at the time at some other plays and I am on a vacation with one laptop screen so I find it really hard to jump from setup to setup all the time to be honest.
@Nape:
You are right as usually mate, good point. I was even looking at it when it was about to cross over 9EMA underneath but to be honest I thought it will not have enough juice for a decent run up. Obviously I was wrong :)
I guess the same problem was here just like with $SUPN, the stock was simply too extended going from $8.6 to $9.8 in the matter of couple of candles and lost it's juice.

yea, tough day in market so not too many movers today. On days like this, need to find best setup. ZLC and MNKD were chat room best trades. I also traded ANAC since it was strong in the morning, but only took the 1st pulled back.
