Trying to get over the fear of being wrong. Risking .05 while trying to just make .05 or better. Got too nervous because I knew I shouldn't have done the trade. Got out and like 10 min later it jumps .10 and coulda been profitable.

Earnings winner. Morning spike, didnt wait for a slight pull back. When it did I got stopped out. It was close to the 6mo break out. Shoulda held cuz it did pass the b/o line.

Quick scalp

This was in secondary group. Plan was to give primary 5 min to do what I wanted and if not go to secondary. Primary didnt go as planned and waited 35min to switch. If I woulda stayed to plan at 5 min I coulda made $500 instead of break even.

Last 2 wks when AG gone red it closed red, today was 1st red day. There was 1 day it went R/G when it did it was a good spike, but it still closed red. So risk was R/G. It hit the risk. I hit the short button instead of cover. I got flustered instead of covering 1K only covered the 500. Using a day trade. It came back down and still being flustered I covered instead of letting it ride cuz it closed @5.20 for the day. Small losses big time confidence and education gains.

Messed up and hit the short button instead of cover button.

Still working on dip buys. Bought the mid panic fake out. Wasn't on my watch list, followed other people's pick. My pick actually turned out to be the better play, so lesson learned. Don't follow others. Cut losses quickly.

Missed the morning panic. Came back @1130 its down to panic levels @16.15. 1st red day figured it be a good short, next support in low 15's. 1245 it started to fall. I hesitated for an hour before I finally found the balls to do it. Got in at 15.42 figured any spike would be low 15.50's so I set my gtfo at 15.55. Only to have the $SPY start to run 10min later. It gapped up to 15.60's so I started trying to get out. Always CUT LOSSES QUICKLY.

Plan was to dip buy. Was wanting to get back to 13. Saw it was having trouble at 12.80 on Lvl 2 so got out as quick as I could. Good learning trade.

Did not prepare/research as well as I should have. Was at the fire station friday and only took 15 minutes to look at it, with no real plan. Bought in the last 5 mins of the day. It has a float of 1.5M and traded 8M on the day. Looked like it was consolidating in the 3.90s, Thought it would push again today. Saw it was gapping down took 10 min to get out. First trade of the Challenge and I gambled instead of preparing.
