PR play! Got in early on this one with prodigio giving me some weird fill. I should have held out for the 70's on this one, so it really was not a great trade. I sold first shares into spike, reset my stop and got stopped out before I was able to realize the massive gains in this one.

Yeah as far as resetting the stop I have done that a bunch too. Looks like you put it at your previous buy, which was right at a breakout point. So when it came back to test that point you stopped out. I've learned to put it a little bit below those points so in case it does just come back to test you don't actually get stopped out.

Hey Charles, yes this is a work in progress and that is one of the main things I need to work on.
