LNKD Trade on Feb 5, 2016 10:30 from parkergreen: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

shorted @ 118.24 covered @ $116.15. Original price target was $115 but got too impatient so took profits at $116. I need to work on my patience but overall an acceptable trade.

Nice entry. Only thing (potentially) constructive to feedback is to watch risk/reward. You took 1.76 worth of heat on it to eventually make 2.09. Not saying you shouldn't take profit until it's reached a certain r/r, only that entering a stock you should have a plan of how much heat you can take and where you plan to exit(s). Matching your plan is ONE reason to exit. To help build patience, I find continually honing (and adhering to) my reasons to exit is crucial.

Thanks for the feedback I will definitely stick to the entry/exit plan from here on out!
