Entry comments: Sat here watching KPAY from 1PM, contemplating getting in. It kept moving up and I kept sitting on my hands, sadly. Once it broke past .2, I decided it was time to get in for an overnight hold. I watched it for a potential crash and saw it go up and down during the last five minutes of the trading day. Its high was .21, so I'm hoping for support in that area early tomorrow. Otherwise, it's going to be an early sell at a probable loss, for me.
Exit comments: Jesus. Cut my losses quickly but it was just tanking at the time. Really lost a lot, here. Not a great morning.

Was really counting on some real movement based on recent Amazon-related news, but this stock basically stagnated all day. Disappointing, to say the least, but I cut my losses quickly and that's the important thing. Tried to get sold at 2.39 but it was crashing too fast, so most executions came out around 2.35.

Unfortunately, this trade robbed me of decent gains acquired from BNGO later in the day. I was waiting on big volume in CLSI and I got it, so I bought in. However, it didn't move the way I wanted it to. Instead, it began crashing. My risk was 0.9, which was where I saw support. When it kept approaching that level, I decided to get out for an unfortunate loss. Will need to be more analytical when it comes to seeing how a stock moves on volume, particularly this one.

Took a slightly smaller position in this instance. I set it to buy as soon as it was unhalted, at 1.88. It spiked quickly from 1.95 to 2.01, then halted again. During this halt, I set up the sell order but didn't send it, expecting to ride one more spike. It spiked up to 2.40, which is when I sent my sell order, but by the time the execution went through just a split second later, it was down to 2.13. Not my best profit, but pretty good in total.

To be honest, I think I got lucky with this one. I bought in very early AM thinking it was heading into a spike rather than following my usual dip-buy-only rule. Watched it crash down to 2.55 but held on with a 2.5 exit point. Then it rose up at about 8:50 (20 minutes after my purchase) and reversed that 300$ loss to a 300$ gain. I intended to sell at the overnight high point: 2.9.
