I tried to do a swig trade on this low float cyber security stock, however, this was a frustrating trade on many levels. Although I averaged down, I still managed to take a much larger loss than I wanted to. I tired selling in the low twenty cent range, but kept getting underbid. This one stings a bit, but I learned a lot through this agonizing process. Looking forward to my next trade and putting this behind me.

Well, I was very fortunate with this trade because I was going to be buying pre-market and had thought the transaction had already taken place for $1.25 a share. However, I forget to select EXT and instead had Day, so my order didn't go through until the open which happened to be at .88 cents a share. I got lucky on this entry! My plan was to only make like .30 cents a share, but it ended up being .67 cents a share profit!

Although dollar wise this isn't a big trade, I am proud that I followed my plan on entering this stock when it developed .50 support. I was hoping for a little more of a per cents share gain, however oil prices were more stable with what has been going on in the Middle East. There is so much uncertainty that I didn't want to stay in too long.

This was a trade I had made back at the end of January when I was first learning to trade. I originally had a small position and then was able to average it down at the end of last month and then sell today for a very very small profit. I am not proud that I was a bag holder, but I am proud of my exit today. I watched it go up and got out as soon as I saw that it was going to double top and volume was diminishing. This trade was more about reminder to follow process.

I bought this float stock on rumor of positive earnings and a software technology company announced it had acquired 6.5% of shares of LIFW. Was looking to make .20 to .40 per share. This had the making of a multi day runner, however the earnings never came out, so I went ahead and sold for a nice profit.

I bought this low float stock with the hope to sell for a .20 to .40 per share profit. Even though I was able to sell for a nice profit, I have to do better with getting out of these stocks much sooner. I am starting to find that I have better entries in the morning and am recognizing patterns much better now.

So I bought this low because it had really good volume and price reaction to earnings. However it never really went up as much the next day. I passed on selling at $1.23 a share because I was willing to risk .10 cents. Learned a lot from this trade: Even though the chart pattern looked good leading up, I'm starting to realize that most of my good trades have been in the morning rather than in later in the day. Took the small loss to free up for my next trade.
