Good info CedarPine based On IWM. Thanks! I didn't look at that chart in early July.
Definitely know about crossovers. See post 3678-3880. Price had dropped three days after breaking through resistance previously, so I thought it was retesting that line. As it turns out, it was a failed breakout! Uggghhh.... Then ... I waited to see a recovery. It did break back above but dropped once more but Friday was obviously a dead cat bounce. I had said I would exit at 2248 or 2249. So, I am two days late on that stop loss. Eehhhhh... Maybe using an Excel spreadsheet to track decisions and criteria might be in order!
What do they call that when poker player loses a big hand? That's where I'm at..... I guess I exit on next bounce. The 21 day MA is used by many. I try using 5 and 7 and 10 EMA, but ignored it this time. If it drops further, it may not be pretty.
