Birthday Trading: Again, thought NUGT was resting to run up again, so I bought & bought again when it went a little lower. Disregarded my risk-adjusted size considerations (even though since I had no stop, I could not have known the number of shares I should not cross), but went from 20 to 50, then to 100, not good.
I have to figure out where is a good place to put my stop loss, but that will come if I pre-plan my trades and learn to properly scan for my setups and stop jumping in when someone gives a stock name on Twitter.
Covered when I thought it was not going to reverse.
