bought in on the dip after seeing some recoveries recently, but got in too early it seems as it dropped more. ended up not setting any stop losses... probably a bad idea. but saw it start trending up and with the jump today I decided to lock in some gains and then stopped out, maybe I should not have set my stop loss soo close when the graph is obviously trending up. but with decent profits, I don't want to risk losing them. any advice?
ended up with a win, but not happy that I watched profit turn into loss again and didn't get out when it was dropping. not sure how many times I can watch it drop and keep dropping before i follow through, last time it took 3 months to see it turn green again, this time only 2 weeks so I count myself lucky. fomo bites again.
tried to get a stop loss order in after seeing green up $0.10 but by the time I had put the order in the price had dipped again, 2 failed attempts and then set my stop loss triggered when it dipped even more. I blame this one on trying to trade from a phone! otherwise, this would have been a green trade.
not sure my reasoning here, trying out Robinhood and making some quick trades. this was a stop loss sell, sticking to my plan when I see some green. held overnight, seeing a trend in morning spikes on this.
Trying to ride the momentum, not much experience doing this with these giant day gainers. Wasn't risking much $. but ended up taking good percent gain.
saw a 5% gain and didn't take it, I had set a trailing 4% stop loss and then got taken out here before market close. in retrospect, I shouldn't have been soo hopeful for a larger spike and should have tightened that trailing stop loss % when I saw a good 3% gain instead of watching it be cut in half to 1.5%.
saw earnings dip and entered.
saw earnings dip and entered seeing that the chart rebounds pretty nice. held until I thought the gains weren't going to see much pumps soon.
watched a gain turn into a loss as it dipped again and then held long until it was back in profit range and set a stop loss not wanting to see it turn into a loss again.. learning my lesson on these last 2 trades seeing gains turn into losses.
was late to the game on this but still went for it and almost lost 50% when it dipped.
