I did not make a play on $WKHS, which is regrettable. There were numerous opportunities with this ticker. It is best to not let these slip by, but always learn from the process.
Thank you! And I love the comic bubles. Question though, I was trying to paper trade just 300 stocks long on this play and I couldn't sell! When it topped into the 4s I still couldn't get out and I was using E-trade. Any advice for such a situation?
@Janielx Hey Jess, I did not know that Etrade offered a paper-trading platform, but they should be able to tell you why it went through. It sounds like you had the right idea, and that is what counts with paper trading. When you trade for real, be sure to use limit orders, and don't be shy about putting your order a few cents away from where you want to get filled. IE your risk level is @ 3.50, have your limit order ready @ 3.45 or 3.40. Especially on OTC stocks!
unfortunately when I was watching this on Friday I was too afraid to enter around 3.50 because I thought was very near the top :( I didn't want to chase and have the stock drop on me.
Great observations - theres money to be made everywhere :)
