First 'overnight' trade. After purchase I thought stock might drop Monday. Considered selling in Friday highs, but decided to stay given small position. Monday decided to stay on probability stock would rise later in the day. Instead, market and low volume made stock go dud. Figured Tuesday price action would be more positive. Worked. In fact, could have exited with profit. Main lesson: always have specific exit price and strategy in case plan doesn't work.

First loss- but a good lesson; was too quick to enter potential dip buy, trying to catch 'apparent' bottom. Stock continued sliding down. Considered holding for the day, but decided to cut losses instead at continual downturn; stock got halted and flubbed exit on Etrade. Overall lesson- with stocks having high trading activity- be extra careful with level 2 and be patient enough to confirm that bottom of dip buys are real and not temporary.

Low trading volume this morning made the dip buy a little "slow moving" (waiting on executions). Got it at bottom and set my sale conservatively per plan (7% or a little more). Stock wound up having a 20% spike, but happy with my 9% gain for the experience- ability to anticipate the dip, getting the entry and exit correct per my plan.

Originally guessed .1275 as bottom before market open. A wall of buyers at .13 for a minute spurred me to change and place limit order, after which stock further dipped to .125. Lesson- be a bit more patient confirming dip bottom. Stuck to 10% profit plan and put in sell limit order before it reached .145. Saw my order get absorbed in other orders on level 2. Stock climbed 20%, but perfectly happy sticking to plan. A baby step trade- per 'dip buy plan'.
