Levi

Trying to analyse my first month of trading, of course I am happy with adding 25% to my account. Still, I was up almost 3k the first 3 days, and then started swinging for everything that had made big moves. Need to be more precise in my analysis and not try to do as many trades ad possible. Need more quality!Will spend more time this month on backtracing and studying, and hopefully only take trades that count. I was holding most of my trades too long, very few I let go too early. Will also not expect the big bounces I thought I would get, but aim for probably half of those moves on my shorts. I was also very early in the days with my trades, and took full size directly. Later at the afternoons I would take slow faders from the bottom out of boredom. Should aim to not get bored, and not take faders unless they have bounced first. Short into tops and buy into dips. What I did good was hold my emotions in schack. A few times I though about changing my stops, but let them play eventually. Probably did my best trades when I stopped looking at the money action and followed the graphs instead.

*May I know how what screener do you use to monitor a stock that has significantly moved up (intraday breakout) like NERV and GALT?

Thank you! @jayjaydagumboy I'm still new to this, so hoping I will not blow it all up. My main scanner is TC2000 platinum, but for some of these I use yahoo finance "early movers" before market open to see what is up.
