Profit/(Loss) With Commission: -------------------------------- ($78.00)
Details:
Sympathy play, 500 shares. Another very stupid trade similar to HEAT today, but this time in reverse. I know that HEAT and CLNT typically run together but neither was really holding its breakouts today so sympathy plays weren't working. I simply should not have traded this, especially on a stock that was so thin since it's tough to get filled at your stop price (I filled 4 cents lower). I could have scalped this trade for the quick 12-15 cent pop which is what I should have done, but I held too long going for the home run. Not to mention the stock had already opened red, gone red to green and then showed huge weakness with a huge selloff, so a bounce was not very likely even with sympathy for HEAT.
