I was going for the end of day flush. Last minute squeeze at close stopped me out.

I tried to post this Sunday, but for some reason it didn't take...
I was just thinking...I wonder if using a shorter time-frame chart at the end of day (3 or 2 minute) would be beneficial like how some people use them at the open?
You might've been a little extended from the 9ema. I've noticed with myself, those trades I make where it is extended from the ema...there is a little FOMO going on in my head. It's hard to be patient...but it feels better afterwards when I do (and I can have a tighter stop to boot)
Another thing with me and low priced stocks...I feel weird taking a profit of a few cents, but if this was $40.30 and I could take a partial out at 39.80, would I? Maybe. It's the same % move as 4.03 to 3.98
Good Luck!!!
