GILD -25% too patient

Daily setup: gap
Entry/play: after pb, buy against pivot
Management: didn't exactly stop against pivot. Didn't take a stop/limit when I should have
Psychology: Pissed!! I can't seem to get on the right side of anything lately. Including passing on winners and giving losers too much room.
