TRADE: Shorted 175 shares on a downward momentum with 8c risk. Covered 75 shares at support. Added 75 shares back to my position and noticed a held bid. (should have exited at this point)
price bounced back by 22 cents, hitting my Stop.
Error #1: If shorting and you noticed a held bid followed by large prints, hit the bid.
Error #2: You need to adjust your risk as the price goes in your favor to protect gains.
