MOB Play of the day
there was no news on play very risky only 2500 shares
for a very quick $300.00 gain
did not want to risk giving back my profit

Note premarket plays make me feel sick
not comfortable getting out when and where i would like
may wait for the bell at least for a while

if the stock is worth playing there will be many opportunities for entry
try not to let FOMO get the best of me.

TOS System was slow and choppy -took 11 seconds to execute my market order
cost $175.00 in slippage

Although I did not lose money on this play I was very disappointed with the way
I played it. I was even down $800.00 at one point. I should have never let myself
get in that sort of position. It was at that point I realized I was not trading anymore
but gambling. I will slow down next week, set smaller goals and focus more on slow and steady gains, taking A quality set ups, to lower my risk I will down size my position sizes. I went a little wild west out there day. I must take this more seriously and remember that most people will lose money trading stocks. Don't gamble like most people!

Nicely done. I was looking to buy the dip at the open. Didn't let me.

I took that trade as well at 0912 anticipating the candle to curl back and make a topping candle. Sold as it flushed down. It was too extended here. Should have left it alone and waited for the open. I've never held into the open. At least not yet. Dangerous holding it that long. Could have flushed down. Fortunately, it curled back around for you.
