Give the stock a chance to make a lower high then a lower low before selling all shares.
yeah I could have held onto some more for a bigger move , there was really no reason to sell all so soon.
JDN i just look for the breakout of breakdown spot and set a stop limit order a couple cents above to be sure it really broke out. Instead of having to chase it. What I need to learn how to do better is buy at support. That is a weakness i am working on
