CTC Trade on May 29, 2014 11:16 from ThirdStringHero_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Entry: Initial entry was for scalp expecting pullback (bounce) from 9EMA. Mistake was I was looking at the 2-min chart EMA, not the 5-min chart. Realized my error, scaled into it when tapped the 9EMA on the 5-min chart.
Exit: Out when it didn't bounce quickly. Missed the bounce 1-2 minutes later.
Biggest issue with this one is that the stock was too thin. Pullbacks only work well when there's volume in the stock (especially bounces).
