Updates - 25 Feb 2017:
- Trade was stopped out by the pullback of the bearish shooting star
- I do believe bear is still in play and i will look for short again.

Lesson learned:
- My inappropriate SL still trouble me.... would be still in the trade with good potential bearish gain if i have placed SL above the signal candle high.
- Was reluctant to do that, instead i have placed SL within the signal candle (23.6% fib level) because of wanting to have a good R:R.
- I now do realize that i should not try to trade to have a good R:R on the expense of my Win:loss ratio....
- Trying to have a good R:R by lowering my win probability is foolish as R:R wont be meaningful if i m always losing....
