CALA Trade on Dec 15, 2014 10:38 from BenLbTrading: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Shorted this and let it play out with a stop at 29.02. As much as I wanted to cover when it popped after I bought it, I was able to hold off and cover the first half on a good flush and the second half when it didn't flush again. Could have done better with the last 50 shares but this trade was about setting a stop and not panic-covering.
