Did you have trouble getting out due to the spread? Every time I looked at BTUUQ it was over 10% of the share price, ie 11.50 x 9.25

@Zenyatta the spread wasn't the main issue. I just did not put any order in BTUUQ because I kept hoping it would come back up. I guess this "hope" was so strong due to my terrible DRWI trade where it actually did come back up

Ok, gotcha, thanks. I'm still not sure if my platform was messed up because I could see orders going through tighter than the spread was

Good lessons to learn here. I lost on DRWI on my paper trading account, got in at 4.31, but I stuck to my plan and sold at 4.19 (missed 4.20). I agree about avoiding overtrading and going back to being a sniper as I need to do the same! Good luck man

@Lincoln_Hawk I get alert messages on my phone and it stays there until I read it and clear. You should do the same.

@Chongette32 Thanks, I now see where you can push notifications to mobile devices. You'd think they would allow the same "clear" option for computer alerts.

Thanks for these! I also need to be more prepared when these sorts of plays are forming. :)
