CCXI Trade on Dec 12, 2014 10:21 from BenLbTrading: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

In an extreme test of my patience and to try to learn a lesson in holding a position, I shorted this on weakness this morning, set a stop at 8.01 and left for work. I got home in time to sell this right before the close for my largest profit yet. I should try this technique more often.

Nice play. Just let that 1st scale play out a bit more

...or you could figure out a method that would've kept you in, like stops over swing highs?
I got a chuckle from your technique tho :)
