Bad habits to look out for from this-

The loss was so big because not only did I get sucked into it'll defenitely bounce mentality but my mind was 100% on the money not the play. So I kept adding near strong support even though the buying power was garbage it was just big bids propping it up. SO many bagholders and you could feel it. STUDY THIS TRADE

So you remember. That feeling you had during the spike to the bounce high is the indicator to SELL. Your mindset flipped and went from Im getting ready to sell to oh shit this is strong I'll hold it way longer than previously planned. $850 gain you missed but its not about money its about the game
