OMED Trade on Dec 3, 2013 10:32 from Punished_SnakeBOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

THis came up on a scan. I got shaken out of my position and came really close to my stop (.01 away)Should have held longer, the next 40,000 candles were green and even with that 200 share position, I could have made $900-$1000. Lesson leaned.

Excellent entry. Seems like you're still trading scared though w/ how quickly you exit everything. I don't think I've seen you hold a trade for longer than like an hour!

what do you mean it came 1 cent to your stop? sell half @ 20.58, then set your stop for the second half @ your buy price

What I meant was that my stop was .01 away when this reversed course and kept going up. And I didnt want to exit 2 times with only 200 shares, this time that thinking really, really hurt me.
Thanks for the comments and for your time!!!

And yes, I get out of them fast. I seem to like to stick them for the micro flags during the day and not like to weather minor ups and downs to get the big move, as it did you know, pretty much all day.
