My entry tested out my theory that the stock if it could hold the 1.80 range, might push back to 1.90 and then possibly 2. That was wrong. All the indicators pointed to a bearish move when I entered. The 7 a.m. crowd didn't push the stock up, the trend line was bearish, and the support at 1.80 was tested and showed weakness. I also entered the trade on a red 5-minute candle. Looking back at the trade, this was a bad one. I also found myself holding and hoping and not cutting losses fast.

Entry comments: Entry at 1.11 with a stop of 1. Taking this as it's the hot sector and alerted by Tim and others. Looking to make a 10 - 20 % on the stock .10 - .20 cents or more. There is a lot of resistance at .14. My gut is saying this buy was to close to resistance but will see what happens at 7 am when etrade traders start trading
Exit comments: Stuck to my plan of making 10 - 20 cents. I didn't get greedy and still deal with crippling anxiety when I entered a trade. A win is a win. 1.30 was tested before, and 1.37 was a key resistance area. The chart did a test 1.30 a couple of times and then broke out; for me, that was the time to get started since I've reached my small goal and am still learning.

I waited with a plan to enter when the stock broke the 3.60 range, but I didn't wait for it to show volume and got in chasing. I set my stop to 10 cents. When it started heading down, I cut losses quickly. It's not a good week from a profit standpoint, but I'm learning and testing out and noting my mistakes and looking at entry points and patterns.
