Reason For Entry
Saw this on gap up didn't want to get in too early thats when I tend to lose so I watched the 15min chart saw it start to hold at $4.30-$4.20 level. Entered with 150 initially then added another hundred on the dip so averaged out 250 shares at $4.24. Then I sold 100 into the spike then took profits as it seemed to slow a little. I then say it start to flag and bought in at $4.25 again as that was previous support and the MA and VWAP were coming up underneath. Caught a nice 25-30 cent move scaled out, could have held longer but I'd rather be green than red.
Lesson Learned
Same as previous lesson learned, trading a 15 min or higher chart helps me slow down and have the confidence in what I'm seeing.
