I bought this stock that gapped up huge due to news of an investor's 50+% stake in the company. Most of the day it was consolidating and it created this ABCD pattern which higher lows and tightening up action. I bought the pullback of the B/O on high volume. It then popped 10 cents but it faded off and cracked below breakout level. I got out then and there. Good decision because it cracked 20-30 cents after that. I think it failed bcuz it was already up big, and it was midday lull.

I went long in this stock because I "saw" this ABCD type pattern setting up. However, in hindsight, it was such a small pattern that developed in the 1 minute chart that it wasn't even recognizable in the 5 minute chart. It turned out later, that i was trading in the middle of a large more bearish pattern of lower highs and lower lows. I also gave the stock wayyy too much patience due to the fact that I only get 3 trades per week. I need to trade patterns that are at least visible on 5 minute.

This company which gets negatively affected by gold price increases, had been crashing the past two days. This morning it had a panic. I decided to short it at the first panic's consolidation period once the stock comes back up to test it. It did what I expected and bounced off the resistance. However, the stock exhibited a higher low and a few minutes later, squeezed all the way back to test R/G. I cut my losses once i realized the stock was being bought up. I should have shorted at R/G instead

I was attempting to buy this earnings winner in anticipation of a breakout but it instead just bounced off and broke intraday support where I cut my losses. I think my mistake was that I should have waited till I observed considerable volume. There was very little bidding volume at the breakout level so the sellers were able to easily push the stock back down. I should study more about breakout and stick to dip buying washes for now.

I just recently watched Tandem Trader's long setups chapter. I noticed this contract winner on a big dip and I also noticed it had a trend change so I bought it when it pulled back and confirmed higher lows. I let it run for a while but sold once I felt like the trend might have been changing because it was put out a lower high. If i had stuck to my plan of closing only when intraday support is broken, i would have been more profitable. It ramped right back up 10 minutes later

AMRN was a hyped stock that recently crashed significantly off its highs. A day or two after its crash, it bounced significantly off of no news. I predicted that the next day would be a crash again. And Ameritrade happened to have shares to short. In the morning it had a weak open. I shorted at a little bounce off the weak close but the stock went up to test R/G instead so I sold because i thought it would squeeze. It bounced off R/G and crashed to 2.40. So my idea was right but was bad timing

I bought this revenue winner on a large dip. It wasn't bouncing as I expected so I cut losses. It about 20 minutes later bounced ~20-25 cents. However, I realized an idea that I never really thought about. As I was in this stock, I realized that it nearly retraced all of its gains back to the previous day's close unlike the other E/W that bounced successfully. As a result, it no longer was a large percent gainer and was effectively off many people's watchlists, which is why it bounced so little

I perfectly planned this E/W dip buy. Even though I felt like it wouldn't hit the mult-month support I was waiting for it to, i waited patiently and it eventually hit my dip buy and went up after that. I sold at intraday resistance of 10.80. I would have held but I had to drive to school and I wouldn't be able to watch since the stock moves fast. The stock surged another 50-60 cents while driving....This has happened to me repeatedly where I leave profits, I should give more time next time

I bought this earnings winner which was closing strong in anticipation of a gap-up/morning spike. What really pushed me to buy into close was a Tim Alert which said he was doing the same. During afterhours the stock dropped like crazy and Tim closed more than half his position due to this scare. I just got out immediately when the stock pulled back closer to my original price. I'm so sick of these losses I need to pull myself together and choose better plays.

I bought this stock on an intraday dip in anticipation of a breakout above 1.40. I did the same mistake as I did with $BIOC, I didn't know that this stock was up on hype rather than solid news. Next time I really need to see what the real traders on twitter are thinkining about a stock before I do anything. After I realized it, I got out at around breakeven right before it broke support and fell to the 1.10's.
