Chased this one. A poor entry. The run up was pretty much done. I should have waited longer and entered on the next move up.
Exited since I needed to get out.
Should learn to keep away from such stocks. $370

What made you hold on so long?

Didn't want to take a loss. I know it's the wrong way to trade but I held on to it since there was positive news which drove the stock up. I should have had a stop in place to exit with a small loss.
