Had this one on my watchlist and saw it making a move so I got in a little late. Man did this thing pop... It was a little whippy so when it got to target I left it alone and took my 2R. 8 minutes and we were at target and on to the next trade.

@SpecTraderJMC yes I did. Hate I didn't ride it out for the entire move but lately when a stock is running and I move my target up the trade rolls over and bites me. Trying to be disciplined the rest of the month and take my 2R target and be happy. Hope to increase my risk level next month.

Figuring out profit taking levels on the fly is difficult. I'm usually setting levels ahead of time (i.e. premarket). Decided to down size early this month. Big size means big emotions. Keeping it under 3000 shares per trade. Was as high as 12000-14000 shares. Had some big days, but my consistency suffered. Left money on the table today with ENTX, but walked away green. On 9 day green streak. Only been active day trading a little over a year every day. In trading experience years, I'm a onesie. lol
