After failing miserably with WPRT, I went back to basics. Re-watched Pennystocking DVD, re-read some of parts of Tim's books, watched his most current video lessons to see where I went wrong. What I saw is that I am overtrading, not looking for simple charts, trading with emotion and the list goes on. Went back to simply looking at support cracking. Actually timed this well, took small position to minimize loss. TWTR ended falling in high $29's. Strategy was successful in this trade.

After morning spike failed, then attempted to short failed, attempted long entry which failed miserably. Had no business executing this trade. Made a $150 loss into an overall loss of $450. Could have sold after-market or pre-market with small profit but got greedy and chased in any direction. Did not remain patient, overtraded, chased, panicked, let emotions get the best of me. More to learn.

Received Tim's alert on the uptrend & ERs win. I chose to shadow Tim on this trade because mainly I was able to buy under price in Tim's alert. Read up/watched Tim' strategy on why he made this purchase and it looks to be one of his original long strategies (as mentioned in his book). Next trading day, spike failed and sold as quickly as I could. Sold into panic. Not the best situation. Left myself exposed.

Here's where Scottrade let me down. Executed wrong trade after the system froze on me. Lesson badly learned.

Two strategies going into the trade. If g/u and spike, was going to buy; however, I saw g/r so went with ss strategy. Attempted to short @ $13 but Scottrade let me down. Ended up shorting .50c later because broke support and felt confident it would dip below $12.
