+$39 1 trade +49cents *100 shares - $10 commission With yesterday's practice with paper trade, I gave more time for the price to run before moving the stop loss. It works well to catch the trend.

I lifted the trailing stop loss too early and didn't give enough room for a profitable trade to develope. In the last two weeks, I entered a few trades developed nicely after I got shaked out with the lifted stop loss which only covered the commision. Focus too much on "cut the loss early" and...
