Got in right before the market close on what appeared to be a good entry for a gap up the following morning. Couldn't get out fast enough. I tried selling at a limit of 9.00 when it was at 9.05 but couldn't get executed and it began to fall. Five canceled limit orders later I was able to finally get out right at the bottom. Need to be quicker and set limit orders a lot lower if a stock is falling. Lessons learned.

Entry: Technical breakout as well as a day breakout. Chart looked a bit messy when looking back at previous breakouts. Exit: Got in to fast as I should of waited a little longer for a confirmed breakout. Had a mental stop at $3.99 which I executed shortly after buying. Cut my losses fast which was good as it ended at $3.53. Even though it was a loss it was a good loss. Lessons learned. PS. The stock spiked a ton the following day so I was to early to the trade.

Entry: Stock was up on hype and also was a cup and handle so I had my eye on it. When the stock started approaching its highs of day I bought and had a plan to sell the next morning hoping for a gap up and a morning spike. Exit: Got a good gap up like I wanted. Started showing some weakness, and I already got what I went in for. Decided to take profits while I still had them.

Entry: Wanted to buy this contract winner for a over night gap up. I bought it to early in the day because soon after there was a huge seller and I found myself down -$200 but that didn't concern me because I knew it was a good play to sell into the morning spike. Exit: Got a perfect morning spike like I was looking for but I had to sell because I was going into class and couldn't watch it and wait for it to show weakness. Went up to 4.90 so I got out WAY to early. Lessons learned.

Watched this stock all day and observed that is was up trending. There were higher lows throughout the day so I decided to buy at a point which was previous resistance, and hold overnight and sell into morning spike. Tim alerted the chat room that it was a risky overnight hold so I sold just before market close. Bad timing but a profit is a profit.

Dont know what I was thinking buying this stock. I broke of the most important rules entering this stock "If there are not good trades then don't trade." My exit on this trade was rather satisfying to me because I held overnight hoping for a morning spike. I decided if the price didn't spike right at market open then I would sell. As soon as the market opened the price was rather stagnant so I quickly sold just before the price crashed 20 cents or so. This trade was a great learning experience.

Dip bought this stock because it I thought it would go up a bit then dip back down and then go up even higher at which point I would sell. After I bought, it acted exactly as I predicted it to but on the second dip it went a little to low for my liking so I cut losses. Shortly after, the price rose right up and I lost out on a decent amount of profit. Good lessons learned.

In total there were three trades. The first trade I should of waited a little longer before selling since it was a clear breakout. The second trade I have no problem with making $100 in less than 10 seconds. The third trade I got to greedy and tried replaying the second trade but as soon as I bought it started going down. I sold and lost almost all my days profit. Turns out it was normal price action and it started to rise right back up afterwards. The best lessons are learned the hard way.

Saw the stock keep rising and wanted to get a bit of the action. Got in and had made $200 in just a few days. Soon after the company announced that it would suspend marketing to US. The stock dropped 45% in one day. Didn't want to take the loss, waited it out. When the company had good news I gained almost all the loss back. I thought it would go up in the following days but I had to sell because I would not be able to sell it the following day and dint want to risk it.
