Looked from the chart like it could do a quick bounce. It consolidated.

This one had been going sideways. Should have stayed away.

Was shooting for the long haul, but made the difficult decision to pull out of all positions. This has been a solid long-term play.

EPD was coming down, so I bought the put. Then it ripped.

Slippage. Pure slippage.

Well, it was at support, then dropped a little. Stock still stable, so I bought and will hold 30 shares.

This stock is fairly stable and has been on an upward trend for months. It dropped to support when the market sagged, so I bought the calls near support. It followed through with its pattern.

I bought this as sort of a long-term hedge fund type play. They’re a long-standing good company, low debt, good dividend. However, it dipped below my comfort level, sagging with the market, so I sold. Will likely buy again once it bottoms out.

Been studying since April. Got my first real paper trade in! Stock increased post-news over weekend. I was hoping for more, but it was sticking. It takes me awhile to research stocks so this was the 1 I prepped over the weekend. Next time, I would like a lower $ stock so I can gain a bigger position. Secondly, the float is probably on the "larger" side, which contributed to the stickiness.
