NVDA -15% day 3 exit

Daily setup: Previous day rinse, entry day surge, within high base
Entry/play: postO, ndh. kind of a chase
Management: um, not good mgt. yanked a few stops. Tried to yank one day1 stop, and luckily I wasn't fast enough bc would have been fatal. Day 2 it went hard against me, day 3 I got lucky and got a surge day (vs total destruction).
Psychology: terrible. broke lots of rules including not trailing stop into a gainer. sweated this trade for 3 days. DON'T
