Russell 2000 Intraday Faked-Out

Today I was focusing on the RUT index which seems to be smoother than NDX and better in trending.  I use its 3 X leverage short ETF to trade, symbol TZA.  The 3 orange arrows denote the places I have entered my positions, 1/3 at each location.  Looks like my stop-loss was too tight to get "Faked-out" before the big move.  It was sad, but let's learn from mistakes.

It feels like a dagger in the heart when you missed a trade and gain was supposed to be juicy.  Today I missed both!  The arrows are the places ideal to open positions and have tolerable risks.  Imagine how much was the gain if you use the Ultra ETF's?
