stupidiest thing is taking position overnight considering strong close and a/h holding action. I knew I got myself into trouble when $29 holds yesterday. but I kept holding/hoping/praying ...

2/27_APT
the tape really makes me think there are no real buyers there and it can pull anytime big so kept recycling back and forth. the key is once again "respect the price action" no matter what you think, how confident you are, if tape don't agree, get out!

2/26_APT, CODX
definitely for better I missed the day and came back at 2:30pm and caught some meat. Will definitely get toasted had I traded in the morning. tough action!!!
this is blowup chart. blessed to be away today and avoided this monstrous move. no single signs of weakness. no reason to short and hold!!!!no reason to go full size!!! it's okay to short but cut immediately when it doesn't snap/reject.

2/25_SPEX, COCP, VVPR
SPEX-disaster trade for me although recouped most of losses later. frontside, massive volume, and above VWAP I should probably never use size!!!!!!!! that allows me to stay calm and rational and stop/add when and where I think I should.
COCP-choppy action but glad it worked out in the end.
VVPR-great stop out before re-attack.

2/24_ENLV, NNVC, TOCA, TVIX
ENLV-great stop out and got scared therefore didn't re-attack.
NNVC-nail n bail, wasn't very confident.
TOCA-worked out but not exactly.
TVIX-small win. choppy and unsmooth action.

2/21_DPW, TSRI, TWMC, BLPH
BLPH-small size. didn't work out.
DPW-opened way below premarket high so have confidence to short it
TSRI-thought twmc algo and chasers give up on TWMC and chased it plus $8 refreshing bids. wrong
TWMC-patience paid!!!!

2/20_BBI, BLPH
habit: see massive volume on first minute candle always put shares on. Although I recycled but still kept some and got squeezed. but overall I did the best I could.

2/19_VIVE, BLPH
goal is staying small and reduce exposure. hit n run will be my motto thru the year. I found out as long as I stay small, trading comfortable size I am trading properly, rationally and without influence of emotions. will do my best to keep that way

2/18_BLPH
Same mistake as ITCI and TSLA. fighting strength on the frontside and got squeezed. Too biased and stubborn and with SSR on and large spreads so kept thinking if it tanks it would do $1 instantly so keep me holding. Could couldn't take it anymore so I cut all around $11.
Starting tomorrow Above VWAP grinding with volume just take it off. either come back late day or next day. I found all my major looses are due to fighting momentum stocks above VWAP lvl with minimal "pullback magnitude" and slowly slowly carried me away.

2/14_GNPX
traded multiple tickers today but GNPX is the chosen one. good stop out and reattack earlier but still got squeezed with my 3rd short. the straight up action really lured shorts in. difficult one. then random bids pull and it slammed 50cents and that's the sign of momentum shift. at one point I was down 17k although eventually I made my way out. should have stopped out instead of waiting. just difficult read and action. and when you realized wrong it's already up 30cents instantly. bigger divergence should be a clear red flag for shorts!!

2/13_SHOP, CPAH
CPAH-nailed it both long n short.
SHOP-just like TSLA2.0 very difficult to trade doesn't matter how you tackle it.

2/12_DTSS, REXN, SHOP
stress free day. SHOP-due to recent memory on tsla I got scared shopping this high price momo name, but maybe that's why it's less crowded and should go more aggressive than I should.
Other small caps just pop n fade.

2/11_BRN, REXN, TSLA
BRN-ez trade.
REXN-feeling 50/50 so took it off.
TSLA-just like ROKU trading ridiculous strong. thought it's already in the phase of backside but holds up regardless. had multiple opportunities to take profit but looking for big picture trade. no more of it! off my radar

2/10_TSLA, VTVT
VTVT-huge absorption so took it off.
TSLA-stuck to the plan. stopped out 3 times before nailed the trade.
stopped out and got squeezed before finally nailed the wash. not worth it!! regardless gain/loss!!

2/6_MYO, JAN, TWTR, BIIB
red day despite traded very well. MYO overnight short got me screwed. no regret taking the trade but maybe I should have downsized when it holds 27-28 lvl yesterday before 8pm. Instead I held 3500 shares into the morning and covered all bet 29-31. this is non-tradable!!!! manipulators messed up shorts premarket and ah and in the morning locate is no available. THE ONLY way to trade it is thru boxing which is difficult concept and in practicality.

2/5_MYO, TSLA dying day
MYO-nailed both long n short. this one is definitely not like other low float trash. Someone is behind the move!!! but this whole action looks like prop for short and offering is coming soon. I put up some o/n. shorts got screwed last night, not tonight again.
TSLA-just like BYND and ROKU..why fight after 11am??? just eat the fucking loss and comeback next day. so much easier on next day. open red and couldn't go green then just sell off all day.

2/4_TSLA, MYO
lots of mistakes today. deviation from my process, got emotional and paid the price.
TSLA-should be non-tradable!!!! put it on DO-NOT-TRADE/WATCH list!!
MYO-ignored the volume and longed EOD. I knew I should get out but kept waiting thinking it's the outlier. chart tells everything!!! respect it!

2/3_BIMI, TSLA
BIMI-I added to loser couple times and got oversized. Should have stopped out earlier and re-attacked but due to FOMO. TSLA-first short was good. but due to BIMI's EOD miss and bias on TSLA I stepped back in and turned winner into loser.
