Caught this on the bounce, overall up trending day. Goal was to make 20 cents a share, but it couldn't break so I got out.

A sequence of three lower highs and being up 10% on the day were the factors for entering this trade. I caught top and should have cut losses quicker.

I let this trade get away from me, and had plenty of warning signs pre downtrend.

GEVO was already up over 60%, goal was to sell into additional gains that I thought might hit 80%. It turned out that it really had legs, especially once it traded over it's low float value. Took profits while they were there!

Bought based on end of day highs and closing green on the day. Goal was to sell into morning spike. Started weak, and wasn't spiking so I got out. Was one minute away from this becoming a loss.

Swing trade test over a few days looking for a morning spike to sell into. It never really came so I finally got out before losing more. Should have cut losses closer to 5%.

In IBIO 1400 shares at 1.23 on the start of break out, looking for 10-30% gains. I forced this trade, acted on impulse without doing enough technical analysis and paid the price.

6:47 900 shares at 2.11: Earnings winner, morning spike, bought on the dip. Speculative buy on a first up day after reporting an earnings win. Risky trade especially since it was already up 38%. Broke the rule to not buy on a first up day. Cut losses relatively quickly...

Entry comments: VGGL: In at 2.30, it was up 18% on the day. It broke out past last resistance level of 2.40. Bought it on the dip looking for it to break out again. Looking to make 15 to 30 cents a share.
