ORB BO.... This was a morning gapper with big movement the previous day.
Got in long for the BO and pulled profits fast when the gains stalled. The BO continued so i longed again, stalled again and took profits fast. BO continued again, so got back in with smaller shares and then added more shares, but added at the wrong time and sold out on the PB. Last trade i got in and price stalled, got out flat. I should have stayed in cause it ran up again. Wasnt pretty and ALOT of trades, but with the market condition, didnt want to lose the profits that were realized.

LOL....you got that right. I've let soooo many profits slip thru my fingers that i was going to let that happen this time. PLus ORB's can reverse soooo quickly , didnt want to take a chance.

Well, you will definitely want a broker that charges by the share and not by the trade!
