Great entry, bought in small increments as it reversed. Sold once I was up a little, but it kept going up a lot more. I need better entry and exit rules. I'm just exiting whenever I can lock in some profit. Maybe waiting until a bar has a lower low?
Second and third trades were iffy. The second one seems like it has a decent setup, rounding bottom, but having knifing bars to the left is always a sign not to enter.
It was down near support at open, I thought it would go up. It didn't.
After it bottomed I bought back in on a pullback. This was a great entry, and I held it until it got back to the next resistance/support level (Likely an OCO bracket).
Third trade was hoping it would do It again up to another level.

It opened low, so I bought in at the doji thinking it would reverse. It didn't, stopped out. Entered back in as it seemed to settle to a bottom, and it did pop up, but I didn't sell, I was looking for 20.60 area.. During the day it did hit 20.60 again, but not until it bottomed at 20ish.
Like F, it opened low and I thought it would climb back up. It did, but not while I was holding it... It climbed after I bought in, then it knifed past my stop loss. I good sign to sell when I was in the positive is likely that high volume red bar after the traditional bars/volume climb.
First entry was OK, I went profitable for a bit and could have closed or taken some off the table. Then it knifed. I shouldn't have entered again after it knifed. That's one of my rules. Knifes follow knifes... Once it entered yesterday's main range I bought in again, thinking it might soak at this range for a bit, then go up again. It didn't but I sold with a small profit.
