Further thinking: didn't trade like a sniper and didn't look at the other side of the coin that being "is this trade plan better if flipped to a short?"
-$172 Loss
BLINLong Stock

Not proud of this one, -17% loss first real money trade. 20/20 hindsight mistakes: Didn't do the SSS in my head completely, position size too big for speculative, not enough volume on HOD breaks, each HOD break lower volume, unfamiliar pattern, no catalyst, STT Twitter scan warned of a pump after closing the trade, wanting to trade on the Friday, not checking the $SPY $DIA etc... before trading and worst of all was I got arrogant. I'll remember to hold this up an example of what not to do.
