Once again testing the market using a very small position to get myself into the game. Testing mid day momentum plays. Saw momentum building on the 5 minute chart. Volume started building towards the whole dollar of 5. I got in feeling that the power of the whole dollar would be enough to lift it towards there and hoping for a breakout. Got out a little to early on first sign of weakness . Should have held to 5 and got out, but still ended up with a win and got out before it failed.

Testing mid day momentum trades as it looked like it was testing its day high of 3.56 hoping for breakout. Using a small position to get myself into the game to mostly work on my mental game. I have a tendency of getting scared to either get into the stock or to hold long enough even though I see momentum. I bailed on first sign of weakness even though I could have held until 3.59. In hindsight should have swing traded. Stock blew up next day.

small position to test my strategy with IPOs. Missed the opening so could not catch the morning run up. Was hoping it would test and break its high of 18.47 right away but as soon as it showed sign of weakness got out. Was undisciplined with this stock with my entry price and chased . No doubt this stock will trade in the 20s within the next week or so. I just do not want to risk and hold my position overnight with a new IPO that has ran up 3 dollars within 30 minutes.

Had this on my watchlist last night as a potential runner tipped off from a friend. During Pre market I noticed that analysts had upgraded the stock, soon after the 5 min chart starting showing strength I bought in and rode the hype as much as I could. I took a very small position to play the stock as I am still learning the game. I got a little greedy and sold a little bit too late, I could have exited a little sooner. Rookie mistake.

Attempted to catch the pullback to test its high of 5.44 after it seemed to show upward momentum. Got out as it went downhill from there. Had trouble getting filled , but in hindsight got out before it dropped down to 4.47 within 20 minutes. I could have had a better exit though, waited to long, must cut losses quicker.

Uptrend. Anticipated it breaking the VWAP to test its highs. Got out as soon I saw sign of weakness. Excellent move in hindsight because it took a really bad dip very next minute. Later in the day I noticed that the stock was going to test the VWAP again. Instead, this time it was creating higher lows, and sure enough it broke above the VWAP, making it a perfect opportunity to go long.

Got entry in to late on an ascending pattern. Should have bought on absolute basement and waiting for momentum swing.

Went against my rules and bought right at the top at 1.51 anticipating a breakout of resistance at 1.50 and got burned. Should have bought at support levels in the 1.30s and rode as it tested resistance. Tried to cut losses quickly but stock moved to quickly. NEVER AGAIN.

Bought in anticipation of a breakout of day pre market high of .76. Took profits after it tested but could not break the high.
