Today was a day. Happy Monday 'n all that.
I took a big step. I switched to the light theme on STT. Madness, I tell you. MADNESS.
Now that the important stuff is out of the way. Onto stock-y things:
I traded $NYMX today. Saw the symbol pop up on my news scanner followed almost immediately on my new highs scanner and jumped in for a good lil' chunkachange.
Also traded $LTBR, but this one was much more deliberate. I somehow managed to crawl out of bed at 5am instead of 5:30am and actually took advantage of the extra time! I got right into chat to let all the big kids talk about their potentials and saw $LTBR come up a bunch. After I made a gallon of coffee and got back to the desk, I checked it's charts and set my p/m high, prev. close, potential entries and exits with ~15 min to spare before the bell (btw, what kind of a wrestling name is Alexa Bliss? How are you NOT a stripper???).
Got in at 10:15, held through a few scares and sold for almost $.40/share at $3.17. I was SO PROUD. I made a plan and stuck it out, when I got scared, I checked that all of my requirements were still being met. If they were, I politely reminded myself to find a pair and waited for the next 5min candle.
As far as tomorrow goes, there's a TON of talk about solar and weed (obvi) afterhours so I checked a few names for potential "first green days" tomorrow or Wednesday. I also threw in a couple tickers from industrial/health because I recognize them and why not?
$RGSE:
Everyone is ON THIS like JT's new single. It had 10 red days and a leeeeettle green day Friday. Did jack squat all day then some news came out and it's up from $1.14-$1.72 an hour and a half after close. I can't tell what it's going to do tomorrow yet, I don't trust a/m movement as indicators of what it can do the next morning. I'd rather wait and see how the world is feeling after sleeping this off.
$MARA:
This hooker has taken a bunch of money from me and is on it's 8th red day. Just going to keep an eye on it and see what happens tomorrow. Good volume, good float, but the news about stricter rules for crypto that was released today and Friday might not give me much to work with.

$EKSO:
I've done a few trades with $EKSO before and made out alright. It's TECHNICALLY on its 4th red day but I'm counting it as 7 because the 3rd day was a realllllllly tiny green doji with shit volume so :P . It has had a few shareholder alerts and investor alerts released as well as an article from globenewswire so I guess(?) there are some catalysts at work, but it doesn't seem like it. Maybe a reflection of the whole stocks-aren't-responding-to-news-like-they-usually-do thing...
I do like that it's been down for so long and that it's 52-wk high is $4.77 (Nov '17) and as of this post, it's sitting at $1.70. Right now I'm seeing resistance here at $1.70, $2.00, and $2.50.
$LTBR:
Mainly just want to follow this one because of the crazy movement it had during market hours. Even though it was uptrending for the majority of the day, it still finished the day red by $.20. If it follows the same morning trends and I recognize them, I might give it another go.
Contendahs:
$FSLR (too expensive for me right now)
$CANN (I'm poor *shrug*)
$BUDZ (see above ^^ )
$JASN (3rd red day, $JASO also had news today so it might become a $CNET vs. $CNIT thing)
Keep the change, ya filthy animals.
Keeses!
entertaining post. MARA was my single biggest loss ever. "hooker" is an understatement. Also keeping an eye on RGSE tomorrow. GL!
Back atcha!
