IG Trade on Jul 24, 2015 09:52 from handycandi_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Bought long as price flagged on 5-min chart, in anticipation of breakout; set stop below 9EMA on 2-min chart. Bought more shares on breakout - I shouldn't have, there wasn't strong volume, so it wasn't a breakout - I got greedy. Stopped out. Lost half my profit for today, because this stop was way past my max loss per trade.
