ACW Trade on Jan 24, 2013 10:20 from kumarBOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Again these alerts have been acting very nicely these past 2 weeks since I've been setting them. They usually go about 75% of the time. Since I've scaled my position size down to 100 shares to teach myself patience, I decided to take the plunge and try to go long every time an alert goes off.

It was acting beautifully but I had to pick up my gf from school and didn't want to be in a position while I was gone. Bummer. Looking back I should have just set a hard stop at my buy price and let it ride out.

Lesson here kids: Girlfriends always cost you money one way or another
