Terrible trading this week...All losses either from being impatient or greedy ZNGA - Did not wait enough for the price to recover - the price action was horrible so I got out based on that. Small loss, not sweating this one. YOD - Held on their earnings which was SOOOO stupid given the companies past CC's and revenue. I had a chance to let this go and take a small $20 profit, but, greed took hold of me. I thought we were going to see a little pop after their CC, but quite the opposite happened - dropped 20% in the matter of seconds. GERN - I'm so ashamed of this trade. Broke rules and didn't pay attention to the price action. I bought right out of the gate when I should have bought pre-market. I bought when people were selling and taking profits. Cut my losses as this stock went down a lot further. It's also pretty frustrating to not be able to trade more than 3 round trips per business week.
@Starseed I'm actually just signing up right now. I've read a lot of reviews, good, bad, ugly, but in the end if I can trade as many times as I want, I don't mine the fee's/wiring process. I've used Zecco, TradeKing, MerrillEdge, TDAmeritrade, and Etrade so far. Until today I never had profit.ly either. I'm trying to make some serious changes to my investing styles, but still in my early stages. #novice haha
@starseed ^ I'm referring to me as the novice here (didn't want to send mix messages myself)
@Mufasa LOL all good..well, welcome to profit.ly! I haven't been here too long either, but loving it so far
I'll most likely keep Etrade, but open up another one when I make a bit more profit. Ideally I would like a broker for investments and one for day trading for separation of concerns.
