Bought the breakout on HOD. Failed to run so I cut my losses quickly.

cut losses

Bought this on a dip from the morning spike. Was looking to make 10-15%. Didn't do what I wanted it to, so I cut my losses quickly

Bad BAd BAD BBBAAADDD trade. I did it again, I saw someones tip in the chat room and I chased this low float stock. I took a way too big position and that made it hard for me to get out when I wanted to. The stock kept dropping and I couldn't get executed. When I finally got out I was down about 24% which makes it my biggest loss so far. The lesson here is don't follow anyones tips, don't take too big of a position, cut losses quickly and don't force the trade.

Pretty happy about this one, took the meat of the move. Finally got a win after a multi-day loosing streak. This company was granted a Patent so I bought at market open on a dip from a small spike. My goal was to make 10-15%, not much, since I've had bad results aiming higher lately just to see my profits go to a loss quickly. In at 1.38 out 1.55. stock continued to climb almost to the 2's, then dropped to 1.60. Now it's back to 1.90. If it breaks 2 it could continue to climb to low 2's.

This was just a bad trade. I bought it towards the market close so I could hold it over night cause I thought it would gap up the next day and because I JUST WANTED TO BE IN A TRADE! Gapped down the next morning so I cut my losses. Continued to drop the rest of the day so at least I'm happy I stuck to rule #1.

Bought this near market open thinking it would go up but couldn't so I cut my losses quick. Later on in the day it just skyrocketed to the 3's and then crashed after hours. Good to know that at least I was on the right track.

Bought on an uptrend going into the end of the day. Didn't go my way so I cut my losses.

Another bad trade to learn from. Chased this one up, started dropping as soon as I bought it. I need to change my mind set and get out of FOMO mode.

Bought too soon. Didn't wait for the panic like I initially had planned to. Didn't stick to the plan. It eventually dipped at 1.20 and is now up to 1.45 Plus I didn't cut my losses quickly. Bad trade.
