ALK Trade on Apr 3, 2013 10:05 from NWJames_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

2 trades here: 1st trade was me correcting my long error in last trade, but shorted too late. (Mental note: If you are wrong on a trade, don't immediately go the other direction, usually too late or chased them. bad trade. 1/4 size; short; chased it since it jump down; covered when it broke bull flag; (dumb trade) 2nd trade: Realized that the Head and shoulder pattern stretched over yesterday . Looked like breaking down on right shoulder; 1/2 size with 1% stop; covered when near today's low. Since it was only 1/2 size, I couldn't sell 1/4. Otherwise, it would be great to catch the drop afterward.
