Beautiful evening star formation (isn't it?) and I thought this will be good ...and what happened

...then I panicked and started loosing money.

Do you have any advice on this chart?

What did I miss here, besides that it's Friday...the unpredictable!

Have a great Sunday!
I am not even close to a expert... but I would have to say that you ignored one of Tymens rules for opening a trade. The evening star has to be closer to the upper BB as the real body of the candle was closer to the middle. That and the NFP which I understand is a fairly big economic event to stay away from if you like to lose money.
