I am going to stop trading for a while. I know that all I am doing right now is "creating" a trade and hoping. I have been doing that too long. I need to take a step back and find actual plays. The market right now is not finding home runs but getting in and out QUICK at the right time. I am doing the opposite of that. My three biggest problems right now are not cutting quickly, hoping, and trading anything I see without following the guidelines

No plan. No preparation. Just saw it "spike" above VWAP for 2 seconds and then slapped back down. You can tell I added my size which I know is never good when I do that. I never do it properly. Waste of money

Thought it could bouce off 3. Had a spike to the 3.20s but didn't like the slap back to the low 3s after. What I am most proud of is my exit. Followed my plan and didn't hold and hope

ONLY looked at this because Tim brought up his dip buy at 1.76 and I "saw" a hammer candle. You can tell from my big size that I was trying to copy him. The only smart thing I did was sell when I realized what I was doing and I didn't like how slow the bounce was. Stock ended tanking even more to 1.55 ... Ended up selling my winner of MRNO's bounce for no reason. DO NOT FOLLOW OTHER PEOPLE'S TRADES

Saw a hammer candle at a slightly higher bottom then the LOD. Only sold because I got scared of a small slap and also because MNTK but that was dumb because I ONLY bought it because Tim was buying it. NEVER A GOOD IDEA. Buy for your own reasons. Lesson learned

Was too early on this trade and I knew it when I got in. Support looked to be at 2.10 but I bought in the 2.20s thinking it wasn't going to crack. Saw an opportunity to sell at 2.17 but was hoping again. Sold worrying that it would crack the 2.10 and it did but only to 2.06 and then bounced. Tried rebuying at 2.13 but my cash account told me I would have a 90 day penalty if I bought more shares today. Need to be smarter with a small account. Stock is currently at 2.20 now while I am typing this

Absolutely ridiculous trade. Not in the right sector, not a mover, middle finger pattern and no bounce. You can tell by my averaging down that I overtraded and DID NOT CUT LOSSES. Do NOT add into a loser

Sympathy from BNAI. Bought pre-market when it broke out passed VWAP but didn't look like it could hold anymore. Stock dropped below the 2s throughout the day. No regrets, got out quick

Bought when it broke out past VWAP a second time. Goal was to sell in the 4.20s or stop at 3.75 when it cracked VWAP. It cracked and I didn't sell right away. I don't regret getting in the trade but I regret selling where I did. I was not disciplined enough getting out. I need to study more and cut losses faster

ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE! I always do this where this is not my first choice in stock, I kept saying I see no entry, and then I get in near the highs thinking it'll breakout when it's really a double-top. I even had the opportunity to breakeven 10 minutes after my entry and still didn't sell. I kept telling myself to and didn't. Absolutely ridiculous. Blew all my gains from this week and gave myself a -22+ loss. UNACCEPTABLE!!
