But of course....

Margin/Greed - Fomo - Emotions - Sloppy Executions; You name it, that's what this is about.

Was supposed to sell +.20 on entry, Purchased more for breakout instead; ended up caught in a false breakout and freaking out about position size. Distracted for a second from work laptop. Blah blah blah.... done.

Gonna share this because it's important to keep mind how fast these things can turn on you.

This sector rn is not good to short since there's a high risk of short squeezing

The funny thing is the short was an order by mistake because I was panic selling, that then got left "open?" when the acct froze and liquidated everything. For some reason while frozen, the manager unfroze - executed the order - then closed for further loses.

Still, I take responsibility because I should of sold the 100 share entry @ 5.78 at 6.20; but I got greedy and wanted more.

Yea, that's already 0.50/shares. Pretty good there. I traded this ticker at 3.49. Sold @ 3.72. it was seconds before the squeeze happen. Missed the whole move because I did not want to chase the parabolic short squeeze.
