Men, I wonder why, bought @ 2.60 this morning 2000 shrs, sold @ 3.14 for a cool over $900.00 profit, but then I took a look again, WHOA !!! went as high as 5.65, In this business you are never happy, Unhappy when you sell at a loss, and unhappy when you sell at a profit because you left a lot in the table,Oh Shawks, grin and bear it
This win makes it up for the epic loss I had with ESSI where I was forced to stay with a loosing trade or become a DTP (Day trade pattern), I choose the first and proceeded to loose over $1100.00 in that trade, rather than being flagged as DTP and being unable to trade for the next 3 months.
I feel that despise that big loss I incurred with ESSI my decision was correct and today's win just proves the point
Live and learn !!!
You know that you can call your broker and get a one time account reset if you get that 3 month slap on your account ... Keep that in mind
@HoneyBadgerTrading hanks for the great advice HoneyBadger, I had no idea, I'll keep it in mind, but once again I'll be more careful in the future
I did it again today. I had my selling RGSE at 7.01. Would have made about $140.00. Than when the price dropped so fast at market open, I changed my sell point to 5.93 and made $36.00 instead. Oh well, maybe this will help me be more patient next time.
@Rollingball Hang in there, we are both learning, I dropped $140.00 in AVXL, Very choppy market
