Mistakes:
---Overtrade. Some of my losses were from different setups than the setup of buying off the new low. Choopy trades today. This stock above 3.50 should have been just a dip buy off the low bounce and not an anticipation of higher move. Especially when it was approaching 4.

My giving back profits trade were also poor trades. it was only some of my buying off the new low that made back my losses and a bit more. It was choppy between 3.50 and 4.00
