i had a good entry 600 shares riding up support for the consolidation BO, but somehow these stupid random price spikes/drops stop me out for a loss instead of a fat gain!!! i have to figure out how these happen and how to avoid them, any ideas? is it HFT bots? -$74

What I tend to do with stocks that spike like this is instead of putting a hard stop I put an alert close to my stop price and review once alerted.
