Setup: From the Intraday Chart it looked like the VWAP, 9, 20 EMA
were are rising up to meet the price.
Entry Price: $15.29
Exit Price: $15.33
Mistakes:
-If I had been more patient I could have ridden this stock higher. However, there was a pullback and once it reached an acceptable level where I made a profit and my fees were covered, I sold.
Pro:
It's the biggest profit I've made on the simulator so far.
If anyone has advice about how to get over that "panicy" feeling let me know. I know I could do better if I can just steady my nerves.

and there was no pullback.. not sure i dont see any red candles..
"from now on consider 4 cents a losing trade." Noted. I will keep that in mind and try to hold steady the next go round.
Where my mind goes is you were willing to risk -.10 or more to make +.05 cents. Not worth the risk in my opinion
If you start to panic maybe sell half and let the rest ride out with a stop at your partial price. That way you lock in your gains and you have nothing to lose.
true true pay urself always but not at 4 cents. that is not a gain just 1 more buyer then seller ..we trade explosive setups we need explosion!

thre is no profit on here. 4 cents is bascially flat.. it means nothing.
ur entry was good though.. just not the rest of it..
from now on consider 4 cents a losing trade. that will keep u from doing that.
