Tim, i don't get why you traded EFOI today, it's not volatile and liquid enough, the best plays of the day is CLTX , CRBP

@timothysykes ... how, in the name of all that is good in the world, do you possibly find time to read through these comments, and even reply! Are you using some sort of algorythm? You amaze me! PS. You'll probably never see this, or at least it is unlikely, but I want to THANK YOU most deeply! You inspired me into this and it's working out thus far. I treasure your insights and wisdoms in the great game of penny stock trading.

Great lesson. Cut them or they will likely grow to be too big, eventually. I think rule #1 is 90% of being successful, over time with patience. Basic math..but with emotion comes mistake.. cut losses or go from punch to the gut to a baseball to the nuts, lol

Key take away from this lesson is we All make mistakes even Billionaires make mistakes. The key is to identify what you did wrong what you could have done better and what you will do better next time, learn from your mistakes that is the key each mistake is a lesson that if payed attention to will help you grow as a trader over time, Tim showed in this example how a ticker broke support and you play it safe the hold and hope does not work, cutting losses quickly does, protects you from disaster.

Honest mistake, but rule number one saves the day! Do not be in a trade with contradictory indicators, and do not enforce bad habits! Good video!

Thanks Tim it is about making small mistakes and not being stubborn and cutting losses quickly when there is a sudden expose when I am long or cutting losses quickly when there is a press release when I am going short
