I realized that this is a very psychological level for me because I'm at the breakeven/profitable point on my Profit.ly account. I made $53 on my first trade for this ticker. Went back in it for a second trade @ $15.92, held through pull back and up to $18.00, but did not sell because I wanted to sell at $20. Needless to say, it failed and I gave my profits back. I couldn't sell and re-enter again because, so it was my last shot at it. I wanted to get as much as possible from it so I could get as far away from "break-even" as possible. Trading right now, this close to breakeven has been a bit stressful and has caused me to make mental mistakes I thought I was pass.

SRM..Actually hit my price target, but I got greedy and felt like it could go alot higher.. Had $304 in my hands and let it turn into a $100 loss. There is a mental work I have to do. I have to be ok with leaving money on the table. I think its so hard right now because I'm below PDT and I know once I've closed my position, I'm done for the day. I can't just lock in profits and immediately get back in when the bounce presents itself. I have to sit on the sideline and watch the runs that I predicted. Leaving money on the table feels worse than losing right now.

Had alot of success lately buy marking my charts and sticking to my plan. Been locking in alot of singles and losing my decided amount. Had a very sharp upward move on my profit chart.

Played SBET and EBET today. Sold both too early but made up for the stupid play from yesterday. Early morning breakouts have been good for me. I'm basically playing premarket low float top gainers. I like when they have retracted a bit and are heading back towards their premarket high so I can play for the breakout.

Made a good trade for a nice gain. Then got sucked into a failed breakout on HLIS and didn't cut my loss. Instead, I averaged down and was given multiple opportunities to take small profits. But I didnt. Instead. I wanted to make money because I have a cash account and it would take 2 days to settle and use again. I always get into trouble because I only have 1 day trade left or no more cash settled. Can't wait until I'm over PDT so I can trade freely, in and out.

Idiot trade today on CMMB. Have to constantly remind myself, "Fuck the homerun. Take this single." I had two chances to close the position and take >10% profit but I didn't. In at 4.64, rode up to 5:40, then down to <5, then back up to 5.35 then back down.

Nice trade today on AIMD, which was the premarket "top % gainer". Took position @ 2:04 in the premarket and at it ran to 2:35 at open. I closed @ 2:30, seeing it wasn't gonna reach my goal of 2.50. Nice single.
