TDOC
This was a bull flag breakout trade which went wrong as we were too eager to get in before it broke out. It shook us out for 3.5% loss & broke out the next trading day. Lesson learnt in this trade:
Should have been willing to get back in as it proved its strength the next two days.

TAL
Took this trade as it reclaimed 50SMA & 20EMA. It put in a head fake , came back & retested 50SMA before running higher. We got stopped out in the process as our stop was too tight.
Lesson: When your entry isn't right, you tend to get shaken out easily
