The fact that I entered late on a TriScreen entry gave me less confidence in the trade.  I exited early at 4822 (+21 pips).  I actually picked a really good level but didn’t have the confidence to stay in.

As you can see, price made it all the way back up to about 5094 which would have been a +282 pip winner.  I should have kept some on to possibly capitalize on a further move.
