ACTG Trade on Apr 3, 2014 10:38 from mirko_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

1st trade
Wanted to short a bit earlier on the 9EMA break but got filled in lower for the 2nd time today. Covered into the flush although I had no reason to sell completely.

2nd trade
Shorted on the dead cat bounce and covered into the flush to the recent lows and once again had no reason to sell completely but the stock was already beaten up and oversold so I did not believe there is more downside potential.

What a nice trade Bro!!!! You nailed it! True that you didn't have a reason to sell the last scale outs where you did, but damn that was nice

What scans are you using at night to find short candidates? Also, what scans are you using intraday?
I'm doing better shorting than longing, but I'm finding that I'm missing some really good short plays during the day. Thx!

Hi my man!

For the 90% of time I only focus on the gapper plays during the whole day and then I also use the 4% breakout scan as well!
