ENTRY: This was a forced trade on my part. The stock has good news and has run big since Friday's close, so was going to ride the continued momentum. It was a chase, and I knew that going in. Also butting against lots of resistance on daily. My thesis was it would break HOD and have a blow off top to 1.50 before reversing. I just wanted that .10 move. EXIT: Serves me right to chase and buy into resistance. I knew it was low odds and paid the price. Never buy HOD b/o into daily resistance. Duh.
ENTRY: Got in this stock on the intense PM price action. Set an easy range to base entry/exit points off of. Got in on the HOD b/o over PM highs @ .35. EXIT: There was no news so wasn't sure how long this push could last, so took quick safe profits since daily resistance was around .38-.44. Nice ~9% winner. That's the goal. 5-20% wins to grow small account.
ENTRY: This was my main watch this morning looking to get in over the F1 breakout @ 0.60/0.61. Was watching DCTH at the exact time it pushed through (of course! ugh), so missed my entry. Attempted pullback entry, but missed by a penny. EXIT: Waited all morning, and determined not to force a trade. So got in on the double bottom after the big mid day dip to PM support. Sold into strength on the push over range breakout. Sniper trade. Perfect 2:1 r/r executed.
ENTRY: Got in for the HOD breakout. EXIT: Wasn't too sure if it would have the strength to really push any higher, so the plan was to sell into the initial strength and let the chart play out without me afterwards. Didn't get much initially, so I sold and moved on. Needed to get ready for lunch, so quick trade. Definitely a correct call. Small sniper trades. Build confidence, and let the account build with 5-20% gains.
ENTRY: Stock gapped up huge, running AH and then spiking PM up to 1.20$. I got in right after open as the stock was dropping back down towards 1$ thinking it would catch support and retest HOD. EXIT: Stock continued to break down and collapsed down to 80c before bouncing back to 90c. LESSON: Wait for confirmation of thesis/price action before risking your money!
ENTRY: (From memory)... I got into this stock late day looking to hold overnight. It had formed a massive ascending triangle intra day and I thought once it caught some volume and broke over half dollar resistance of 1.50$ it would squeeze up and I would sell into the morning gap. EXIT: Stock couldn't push through and was stuffed right at 1.50 resistance. I cut losses quickly the next morning, giving it time after the open to spike but never did. LESSON: Buy after price action confirms thesis.
Can only see the daily chart, but shows that the chart was having a multi-month breakout over 1.17$. My assumption is that I played a an afternoon dip looking for an EOD run, and then stopped out (too tight of a stop- 3c?!) when it broke down even further. Stock closed at 1.30 so if I would have held until close I still would have nearly covered commissions. Another lesson learned/drilled further into my head. Play clear support, not emotional selling because you're down.
Again, can only see the daily at this point... showing the stock had a massive move opening at 2$ pushed to 3.73$ and then wound up closing red @ 1.93ish. I got in short later in the morning (per the screenshot) and must have been squeezed out immediately as the stock pushed higher. If I could have held on I would have banked 1$/share and made 90$. Sad. But gotta follow rule #1 and cut losses quickly. Never know how high these things can go.
Looking back and logging these trades 2 months later I am happy to see that I am consistently playing tickers that are making BIG moves on the daily chart with massive volume. It looks like I bought a huge dip on this stock and then got out when it failed to really bounce after giving it twenty minutes. I think I remember this play as I had sold for basically break even and then watched it push from 75c to a HOD of 1.27. Kept telling myself to just be patient, only to not, then watch it run
Just like the $MYOS trade I had Jan11th, this stock was running huge (can only see daily chart at this point). It gapped up and then pushed from 1.22 to 2.34 and closed @ 2.07. I don't have a mental memory of this trade sadly, so I can't explain what my thought process was. Based on the prices I see it looks like might have bought late day looking for an EOD push/continuation into an AH/PM gap, but then cut losses as the stock broke down. Probably a very tight stop based on trade screenshot.
