GPRO Trade on Sep 9, 2014 10:01 from alina_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Today wasn't as good as yesterday. Lessons learned:
- avoid distractions (difficult to do while working), as I tend to loose sight of what I'm doing, which results in premature entries or lack of confirmation
- my stop losses might be too tight, as I got stopped out with GPRO both times I traded it
- keep track of what is happening with the market in general. GPRO tanked after Apple news.

I think both placements were good. Just happened to have been a choppy time in the name intraday.
