Entered Tier 1 on the first pullback, with the stop at the bottom of the pullback, entered Tier 2 on the next pullback, same stop and entered Tier 3 as the trade continued to move in my favor, booked one tier at the top of the bear channel that started the pullback and added the tier back on the next pullback and booked partial into new high of day and booked the remaining at the high of day again after the next pullback.

Better trade would be to hold my core position until a valid Reason2Sell appears

HUYA was strong all day, and strong into the close. Bought the pullback expecting the strength to continue, was stopped out.

Better Trade:
If you find a stock that is strong throughout the day, pay attention to where the stock is coming from, if it has been steadily climbing it might be near exhaustion, however, if it had just came from a test of the moving average, it has a better chance of fresh follow-through

Signal bar was an inside bar, however, it was a doji and also the following bar was a doji, both bull would decreased the odds of a successful first breakout attempt.
Place a short entry below trading trading range because of the strong bear bars leading into the small trading range with stop at the other end of the trading range.
However, after triggered was immediately stopped out.

Better trade would have been to wait for further price action, such as a breakout of the trading range and follow-through.

Entered this trade based on the measured move down, where I booked profits and flipped to long on the pullback.

Better trade:
To keep my original stop and instead of jamming stop after the reversal bar, if stopped would have remained in the original place, would have reached profit target for a 1:1 gain instead of getting stopped out and losing half of what was originally risked.

Entered on pullback, however, this move was already extended without having a sufficient correction prior to entry.

Jammed stop at closest support that would invalidate the original premise.

Entered trade on a bull reversal bar, the next bar was in bear inside reversal bar, trade was triggered on the following bar and then the next bar was stopped
out after a new low was put in.

A better trade would have been waiting for the bottom to be put in, instead of trying to catch the bottom, after such a strong sell-off. The market put in a double bottom then an inside bull signal bar.

Entered on a breakout of the trading range, Tier 1. However, started seeing consistent selling on the tape at the same number, repeatedly for an extended time, and also the chart was putting in lower highs, which increases the odds of a breakdown, so I jammed the stop up under that number and was stopped out before the market broke down to hit my original stop.
