JDSU Trade on May 1, 2014 11:16 from oly_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

If I had faith in my setup, put the stop at 11.41 and let it go, I would have made bank. Instead I let myself get shaken out twice on shorting what should have been a winner.

reshorted when consolidation broke down

stop: 11.32 above vwap

stopped out

I think the stop was ok for a 2nd entry but these fakeouts happen during lunch. Also, I should have stuck with my original short and 11.41 stop.
