STML Trade on Jan 17, 2014 10:46 from EL_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Kept getting in too heavy for the volatility of the stock, so some of the sells near buy price were to lighten position.

1: Bought on confirmation of pullback. It faded, I lost.

Need better trade management. If your stop loss was in the right spot, below the MAs, you would have nailed this trade. Try to enter trades near support.

Agreed. My position was too large, so my stop was too tight. This is a recurring theme for me.
