Had to choose between CCCL, SFET, and PHUN. Chose the less volatile one and ended being almost the safest one. Got in that 1 key level on a dip and wanted to add size, but hesitated. Yeah I could've made twice the gains, but absolutely happy the trade worked to a tea. Almost top-ticked it. Currently hit a NHOD of 1.53 and halted. I had to endure a halt, but luckily got a spike after the unhalt instead of a selloff/tanking action.
HINDSIGHT 5/25/20: I already know it was a 27% gainer, but looking over my trades and seeing my back-2-back wins on $CCCL and $NNMD & just super excited with where I have come in terms of trading. I honestly think I was just a few steps away from reaching consistency back in 2019, but after I took that big loss on $FRAN and then another loss during school in Fall 2019 I just left trading to the side. April thorugh May of 2020 I have just immersed myself in the markets and it is paying off well Everyone wants immediate success, but no one wants to be patient. Patience is a virtue. Now I just gotta take it one trade at a time and try to avoid having those red days. Yes it's impossible to trade without ever taking an L, but what I mean is how to avoid the trades that should have never been trades to begin with. Many trades I have taken have been out of boredom and just wanting action. Need to learn to relax a bit more and "trade like a retired trader and only come out of retirement when a play is so good you'll feel bad for missing out" (quoted from Tim Sykes).
