AMPE Trade on Aug 14, 2013 11:33 from mirko_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

The stock was gapping down premarket so I was waiting for an intraday setup to develop.
Once I saw a possible flag breakout I have entered the trade believing it could be a squeeze zone play but it went down instead and exited with a biggest loss today.

I got bit yesterday by the same thing. That's why we use stop losses! Good call on getting out.

Had the same problem couple of days ago Wes, now it won't ever happen for me not to set up the stop loss - lesson learned :)

If it would have got back over $6.50. That would have been a better spot to buy because then it would have gotten pass the price resistances.
