Better trade. I should have had more patience - but I got a phone call that cost me 5% :-( Wasn't even a good phone call... Watching now to see what I could have done better.

$2.57 after commissions. I just didnt' know what I was doing here. I really wanted to trade HJLI. It was making me nervous because I didn't get a good look at the bigger picture. So, I got out.

$TOPS looked like it had the potential to have a 2nd big up day like it did back in June. This morning, eeeeearly, it got up to 1.88 - and I should have taken profits! Live and learn. This was a speculative position - that's why the position size was so low! I'm learning good lessons [I hope] from @TimothySykes

Little mad at myself - I woke up late. This was on my watchlist I made the night before - also saw it on STT scanner - and I had like TEN opportunities to get in before the turn. Instead, I played a small dip like 30 seconds before Sykes... And I still screwed it up haha. I got out too early because I wasn't COMFORTABLE with the trade - I don't know afternoon patterns very well, and since I didn't know - I got OUT!

Similar FGD VWAP cross in the morning like yesterday's GRNQ. Still learning.

Saw about an hour of consolidation around VWAP and it crossed at around 10:30. Three minutes later, sold into strength at 1.79. I believe that's called #sniping I had no emotion. I saw a wall of sellers at 1.80 - I didn't even feel excited about this until a couple minutes after the trade. This is how I want to trade every day. 15 minutes later - double-bottomed. Could have traded that also. Remembering that Sykes says to always watch AFTER the trade to see what you could have done BETTER.

Wanted to make a small "learning" trade. Saw a potential opportunity here - analyzed chart, short and long term, and thought this could run to 3.30 on volume before 10am... However - the one thing I didn't take into consideration [I need to do better with the SSS] is the fact that it was already up from 2.69 that morning. Thus making me a 10 dollar BAG HOLDER! AHA!

I saw the dip here, and didn't realize that Tim was making the same trade - but I wasn't nearly as fast or prepared as Tim and didn't get out soon enough. Good lesson - don't trade unless you are FULLY prepared! Otherwise - it's just a gamble. Back to the curriculum for the rest of the week for me!

Attempting small position sizes to learn dip buys. - small win here, I took the profit when I saw the channel move my way and got out before it moved against me - I shouldn't have been in the same trade at the same time as Sykes.

I seemed to understand a bit better about the TLSS pattern. Still trying to make trades on momentum and breakouts instead of writing out my plans. I did plan for this one ahead of time [in the morning] and watched for a good pattern to emerge. Not perfect - but a solid trade on this day.
