saw this stock at open. open range entry (idea entry was 7.11/7.12). saw it shoot up so exit all. I definitely didn't know it was going to move like this. lucky. If market gives me one once a while, I will take it.

Do you have 2 accounts here? "NWJamesPaper" and "NWJames"? Is the "Paper" one a paper trade account (no real money)?
ScalpTrade, Yes, those are my accounts. I used both accounts. Early on I intended one for paper trade and one for real, but I basically use one account until capacity is up. no difference between the two accounts.
ah, gotcha. altho once you have a steady income flow, I will HIGHLY recommend paying the $49 a month for the Gold Subscription. I have it right now. extremely useful stuff. including commissions is a MUST. people who deal with Gross Profits, instead of Net Profits, are living a dream. commissions are a huge part of what we do, and must be included into all trade & account analysis!
$49/mo might seem like a lot...but then again, we can lose $49 on a single trade in a matter of seconds tbh LOL
Yes, totally agreed. I do keep track of commission separately. When I really get going, I will. If you see anything in my trades that can be improved. Please let me know. No pride here. just want to be a better trader. If you seeany dumb mistake, just call me out. I really appreciate your comments. thx
