Testing breakouts. I had the right idea, but once again, in my usual fashion, didn't take profits when I should have. Seriously, someone hit my thick head! One more opportunity to practice my exits. Got out for pretty much break even which is better than a loss. I may have enough profit for a glass of wine. The cheap stuff. :)
I bought this at consolidation mid-morning. I was going to sell, but decided to hold o/n since it was still closing decently, and there was such huge volume. Pretty happy with my entry, but I held this one too long. I should have sold it at the first spike in the morning. There was so much momentum with this one, I held and hoped. Mistake, but overall, still exited with a profit. Biggest one yet. :)
I'm pretty happy with my entry on this one. It panicked hard and I got executed right near the bottom of the dip. Plan was for it to retest former day high. Exit sucked because I should have just sold into the failed spike off the dip. Held all day since it pretty much maintained, and then it gapped down after hours. Another opportunity for learning!!
So, entry on this one was good. Caught the dip. Spiked to where I was up like $15, then just never continued the bounce. I set my support at 4.38, should have exited then but held on for some stupid reason, thinking a squeeze would happen soon with BPTH fresh in my brain. Nope. All the action was pre-market. Need to really work on my exits and stay to the plan.
Looked like a great setup when I looked at the long term chart for spikes with volume, (see 8/20-8/22) I felt pretty comfortable that it would run the next day. I bought and held o/n and thru the next day. Pretty disappointed with this one, but it just goes to show the market will do what the market will do. Cut losses and get out. Will try and keep a better eye on whichever sector I am buying.
Entry comments: Saw this former runner up on news. Had bid placed for about 20 minutes until it caught the afternoon dip. Depending how closing goes, I may hold o/n or sell. Looks like .0367ish is holding support fairly well.
Exit comments: Completely tanked, all I wanted was out. This was terrible. I could not get executed on my exit at all!!! Will take the lesson that when trading OTC's watch for execution. Be very certain of your hypothesis!!
Entry comments: I saw this one at the end of the day. Missed the runup earlier since I was so focused on $PURA. I am basing my support levels at .61 where it had a double bottom. Totally buying the rumor on this one. Looking at the one year chart, this could really go. Looking for a gap up. Again, holding o/n. Trying to find a niche that works for me. Feel free to give me your thoughts (good or bad) on this one!
Exit comments: So this one had a later panic, and after watching my other stock tank, I just wanted to cut losses. Looked good in theory and in pre-market. Peaked mid-day, but I wasn't sticking around for that.
Entry comments: Crazy volume today, past chart activity shows this stock responds to hype. Will hold o/n. At worst in the morning, I break even if it gaps down. Very small position since I have such a small account.
Exit comments: In retrospect, I should have sold at the morning hod. In all honestly, I held thru the entire day ONLY because I was already up and wanted to see how far this could go. Volume was disappointing at the end of the day, and I don't want to hold o/n again. I may end up regretting in the morning, but I will take my singles and move on. **DUPLICATE OF PURA VERIFIED TRADE** Not sure why that happened.
Entry comments: My first o/n trade. Chart history has history of spiking, up on volume, first green day, closed .5 off it's high's. I would be happy with even .20 a share just to test my hypothesis and start growing my small account. While it's a China play, they have been moving today so we'll see how the morning plays out... .35 of downside, possible of at least .53 of upside so I am comfortable with my risk level.
Exit comments: Gapped down pre-market. Volume completely dried up. Cut losses fast.
