  • Details:
    Daily range break, 1000 shares. Bought this in anticipation of the break of the 50dma on the daily at $2.97. I should have noted though that the stock had been up for the last three days in a row (almost 20%), because it really needs to settle under $3 for a couple days before this breakout will be successful. I gave it a tight stop of $2.89 to start with a target of $3.10 and then $3.50, but moved the stop to $2.93 after it stabilized a bit. The breakout failed right at $2.99 which is a big resistance spot. I will be watching this one for a breakout sometime in the next week or so.
