Got out to soon.

Promotion buy - Got the email 2 min late and only caught the top of the run.. Sold into strength once I saw it slow down.

Bought this afternoon momentum stock on news. Held for the last 30 min of the day and price action wasn't strong as it got stuck in a channel. Ended up cutting out for a very small gain. Better than a loss I guess.

Bought the light breakout and the run up was only a few cents. Thought I was selling for breakeven, but realized my buy order went through at 2.15 - Losing trade, but better than my recent breakout chases so at least I'm going in the right direction.

Watched this stock around $5 and chickened out - Ended up getting FOMO near close and bought looking for an O/N gap up. After hours was horrible with dips down to $5.10 and I decided to get out. P/M next morning is down to $5 so I guess I cut losses quickly and need to remind myself not to chase. Need to get over this fear of losing which is holding me back from getting in at the right entry and making me chase later.

Waited to long to get into this breakout. Had a plan, didn't stick to it. Should have made $400, and instead I lost $150.

Bought in the dip, but held through the rise and dipped a 2nd time to lower lows. Had to get out quickly

Looking for a morning gap or spike based on closing momentum - Didn't happen and cut losses quickly

Bought on a dip, looking for a nice bounce - Started going sideways and got out with a small profit rather than take a risk on a panic sell based on lost momentum. Ended up creeping up to 2.40 over the next hour, before crashing below $2.
