I watched MNKD because of the ralinepag DPI news with United Therapeutics. My plan was to enter if it broke and held $3.40 on a 5-minute candle. It worked: my $3.41 order filled for 900 shares, and the stock later pushed to $4.29. The issue was execution—I accidentally bought more around $4.10 instead of selling, then sold all 1,600 shares around $4.10, making about $460.

Entered before confirmed breakout. Bought near resistance instead of after a 5-minute close above resistance. Volume was fading, so breakout had no confirmation. Sold at $1.42 when the setup failed. Lesson: wait for 5-minute confirmation with volume; no volume means no trade. MY RULE IS (I dont enter to be the first. i enter when the breakout confirms)

I traded TLIH today. It was an earnings winner and had a crazy move from the low $2s to $4.61. After that, it consolidated around $3.70 on the 5-minute chart and started forming higher lows. I entered at $3.99, thinking it might retest the high of day, but the volume was not strong enough. I sold at $4.22 for about a $200 profit. It later dropped back near $3.90, so I think I played it safe and made the right decision.
