Not sure what to call this pattern, so I guess it wasn't my pattern. It was a long term trade on a less than volatile stock. Trying it out, you know? I probably would have held longer, but my losses on UAVS and $BGFV made me want to take profits to break even - not ideal, but you know how it goes. Losses can definitely effect one's psychology and mess up one's strategies. Either way, I'm not inclined much to hold over weekends.

Was at work so wasn't able to watch this closely. Had my alert set for $1.30, but by the time I went to trade price was $1.32. So I put an order in and got filled. It shot up to $1.40 within an hour or two, so I put in a stop order at $1.35 to lock in profits. Price dropped and hit my stop some point during the day and sold my order. Was a triangle pattern play - my favorite.
