Thank you for the trading tips. Knowledge is power!

Great points. One important point which I think isn't stressesd enough by gurus is screen time. Watching the market everyday for months and years, seeing the setups play out over and over again in different market environments, going through different market cycles, getting a feel for the market, Watching the tape, the manipulation, fakeouts and exhaustion moves are very important. This requires a lot of time and patience and skin (real money) in the game. No DVD or video lesson can teach all th

Also looking at a chart on mutiple time frames, daily/ 5 min/ 1 min is important imo

@US16 yes definitely, it is very important.

what a great lesson! good experience tolerant from!

@TessaLamping Yes, it sucks, but it is what it is and yes a good learning experience!

@LibertyBelle Thanks Liberty! Yes, a great learning experience. I'll have another post with my trade information once I get out of this stock tomorrow. I found tonight you can't trade pre-market on ToS starting at 4 am. It starts at 7 am. Hopefully the stock won't have enough volume to shoot up during the initial p/m hours.

hanks for sharing. These kinds of mistakes are not uncommon. We can only learn and move on. I am surprised that Ameritrade had shares to short though

Thanks for this! Very insightful.
