Incredible break down pattern under 28.00. waited for a chance to take a short. The day was down and this stock was trying to fill a gap up of some days ago. Saw some weakness, the market drop hard and that was the trigger for me to take the trade. jump in at 27.93 and sold too early at 27.87. Playing little shares.

Played the 2nd attempt to break 18.40 support but It failed, so I got out. Market was moving sideways mostly to the up side. It did the break after the 3rd attempt. Played my plan. May be I should try this breaks during strong trending markets and let reversals to sideways days.

Wanted to buy the break out HOD of this stock, even if it was a loser on the day, daily sugest it could go up so I took a position close to the break, risk under 52.50. The market was trending side ways mostly to the up side so I have some odds on my side. the thing doubt too much, so in the first sign of weakness I got out. some minuts after rised up like I expected. Traded my plan.

Saw this one close to 40.00 that was the break out price. It was the 2nd attempt to do that break and the market was rising strongly so that gave me confidence to take the trade. the problem was the strong resistance at 40.10 and the trade failed around that same price in the fisrt try. So I told my self if I saw to much trouble I'll get out. did it and 2 secs later it rised to 40.29. Next time I'll have more patience at least until the first red candle or a bearish formation or sign.

Greedy me. waited the break of 52.50 that was a good breakout point intraday, market green and going up. The only thing I ignored was that the stock was a -2.3% loser on the day. Jumped in at 52.54 and the stock rise to 52.74, I wanted to sell at 52.80 but never got to that price. made an evening star in the 1 min and started to fall I should have sold but decided to wait, stupid mistake.

Saw this gapper down making attempts to break 19.50 with lower highs so I waited until it did the break down after 10:00am and jumped in kind of late. It was a chased entry price at 19.44 and I didn't like that although the set up was good. the market was dropping and down on the day so that helped me to hold on. The price came down but bounced a lot so I decided to cover and protect my tiny profits.

First short trade ever for me. This high priced stock droping hard, breaking under a whole number such as 40.00 and overall market in red gave me confidence to take this trade. Saw the double bottom with lower highs at 39.80. waited for the break down and took the trade at 39.77 set my risk at 39.90 and reward at 39.60. Rised a bit and then started to drop hard even under my reward price so I waited to see some weakness to cover. good trade.

Chased again this pre market runner and bought few shares because I thought it was too speculative. I didn't like that this stock droped huge a year ago and has never had a bounce. So I imagined it has a huge amount of bag holders waiting for any run. but I still bought it because may be many of those could have selled during this year so I wasn't sure. took my chances. at the end bag holders attacked and the thing drop hard from highs. Sold when I felt weakness with a commision loss.

I don't know what the hell I was thinking. Tried to catch the bottom of this loser but instead I catched a falling knife. I jumped in at 8.55 thinking 8.50 will act as support and set my reward at 8.79. the thing actually rised up to 8.75 but then started to fade. I didn't get out waiting it to come back (i'm crazy) but instead it continued to fall as is natural for a -10% loser that still has room. Broke rule number 1.

Chased this former runner on the way up, last week some stocks like HTGM made huge moves so I decided to join the next runner, and I did. Jumped in the first pull back but got to scared and couldn't last more than 30 seconds. lost because of commisions, the price went to 13.50 and then happy bag holders pulled it back down to 10s.
