triple top, 3 drives to a top you can call it whatever, I missed the 1st setup because I was sleeping at 11:30, I opened the charts looked at it and got short. No need to think too much into it, RSI is going down price will follow.

I was sleeping, you are thinking too much into it and I would of took the one before it as well. The more RULES you add into it the harder it is, PB with Divergence = trade that is it no magic.

If you do not see the divergence you are missing the boat, looks at RSI on a LINE ON CLOSE chart with price and tell me that rsi goes lower and price goes higher, market is sideways and a PB = take the trade. BTW out +20 or 4% gain...
