Now, this is the day that the Lord has made, I am certainly rejoicing and dancing in it, smile. Ohhh, HTGM, I wouldn't forget you. So I studied this stock late last night and early this morning, but my planned price target (4.3)to get in was nowhere near the open price of 6.4 and it moved so fast it felt like an open of above $7. So I was waiting for a large pull back before I enter, well, that never happened early on so as it moves back and forth between $10 and $11 I started scalping, first scalp green, second red, then the others green for a total of $684 profit of the day, paper trading of course.
Now this is the part, since I've noticed I am scalping and winning I decided to trade real liquidity for the first time even though I'm only in my 5th day of paper trading and also I have promise myself not to trade real cast until I've done at least one month paper trading with consistency, additionally, after having a feel for the Das Trader Pro platform (Demo) and from what I've red I said I will not trade cash on the Active Web platform, only until I purchase the Das Pro for paper trading for at least one month and I feel satisfied with paper trading and would've acquired the Das Trader Pro for the real deal. I followed emotions and betrayed previous reasoning completely. So, using Active Web (minimized) on top of Das Pro Dem, I bought 300 shares of HTGM, then immediately started to panic as the stock not only move red hard and fast on me but I also placed the trade as "Day+" instead of as "Day" and was scared of what that implication could mean. I held my breath as I watch myself being down about $120, my patience paid off as I exited in the bounce just seconds before it started to really tanked for the day zipping past what was previously strong support levels. I realized $79 profit then 59 after commissions.
Oh, and towards the close of day I was shorting the stock now and luckily it wasn't shortable after I placed the trade because I would have been down almost $300. luck is truly welcome, hope I learn for all of that and trade until I am consistent with paper trading and having Das Trader Pro. I should at least complete the next week of free Demo Paper Trading from Das Pro. I was in the negative for three consecutive days out of the five days, so I should not let beginners luck fool me, I have to prove it and learn to cut losses INTELLIGENTLY QUICKLY, but more emphasis on QUICKLY. Because if emotion is overshadowing intelligence/judgement then cutting loss QUICK should take preference.
NOTE: All the trades showing here are from the paper trading. The real cash trade is on the Active Web which I couldn't put up here.
