BIG LESSON HERE >> Need to get out of stagnating trades quickly. Had my mind set on a number and thought big opening spike would lead to all-day runner. I was proven wrong. Two hours later I was watching it decline steadily and holding and hoping. Never turned around. Big classic newbie mistake no-no. Don’t do this. Cut losses quickly. Was not a good setup in the first place, should never have purchased. My time is so valuable, don’t get rabbit-holed. In for $2,775, double-bullet, lost 300.

$800 play, in @ 0.0155, out @ 0.0152, small $20 loss. Chat tip. Was up at one point by $50 but didn’t sell. Panic dip buy. Didn’t get the exact bottom, was a little early, still bounced to where l was green for a little bit. Didn’t sell. Didn’t have the $50 goal in place. Was looking for something bigger, like 100. My bad. Get in, get out, move on. Take a loss if need be so that I can redirect my focus. Watching a play like this gets me haggard.

$700 play, Timalert, purchased @ 0.095, sold @ 0.300, net gain $1400. Tripled my money. Borked some other trades on sell day which ate into this gain. But all good. 2-day swing trade on unsettled cash purchased on a whim. NIce play. Gold-backed cryptocurrency with news. What a runner. Watch this one..

$1,000 play, purchased @ 0.0068, sold @ 0.0049, lost $300. Chased a Tm alert from yesterday, Tim had planned to hold overnight but changed his mind and got out. I, on the other hand, could not b/c I was working on unsettled cash. Lost more than I should have, was distracted w/ other tickers the next morning, holding 4 positions at market open, too many. Won’t do that again. I was watching $AABB while this was dropping. Lesson learned.

$1,500 play, in @ 0.0120, out @ 0.0115, lost $85. This was a runner I looked at early and bought too late and got burned. Need to wait next time for the best setups. FOMO I guess, a lot going on, I was definitely not the cat waiting to pounce, instead I was a flopping fish... LoL ... Mining stock that broke out a few days ago for whatever reason. Chat tip.

$TSNP, here we go again... $450 small play. In @ 0.7601, out @ 0.7680, lost $8. Bought this after I had already finished for the day and was typing my trade notes. Noticed a dip while glancing at my watchlist and jumped in small. I was right. Same action on FORW too. 2-5% dip bounce. But I delayed getting in and then overstayed my welcome a bit, washing any gains. Will be nice to hit 25K and not be dealing w/ settled cash anymore.

$150 small initial play, in @ 1.4389, looking for breakout. Next day in $1,050 more @ 1.505 for $1,200 total. Sold too soon @ 1.415. Lost $65. Needed to close all positions and cool off, kind of schizophrenic day, I was going nuts. Currently trading @ 1.600. Could have been a gain. Chat tip.

$500 play, in @ 0.0073, out @ 0.0058, lost $120. Not sure what I was trying to do here. Probably panic buy. Mostly messing around w/ settled cash since this was first day to play. Would do better to make less impulsive trades and instead study watchlist night before. Then, during market hours, wait to pounce like a cat. This was chasing tickers all the way. Chat tip.

$900 play, in @ 0.132, out @ 0.126, lost $50. Don’t remember if this was a breakout or dip buy. Just following chat suggestions and throwing money around at this point. Having fun though. Chat tip.

$800 play, in @ 0.0079, out @ 0.0086, gained $50. Chat tip gone right! Panic dip buy, I think I was in this one for about 20 minutes. Nice one. It can be done!
