It was just going to be an intraday scalp.
dude...you shorted at 5.87 and held it till when it reach its high at 11.67....you didn't get a margin call? did you know what you stop loss would be? or you were using "buying and hoping" strategy?
No sir. I shorted it yesterday at 5.87 to trade the afternoon range, and for a possible continuation to the downside. My stop was above the range. But it got halted literally less than 2 minutes after I entered. It was my first trade in the stock for the day. I don't buy or short and hope. It's a mathematical game to me. But it was a stupid trade, I admit. I don't normally even trade in the afternoon.
On another note, sometimes I have a tendency to wait until a trade feels safe. That is a bad idea, because those tend to be the most dangerous trades for me. I'm actually seeing someone about this.
I was given some years old TomTom to use for navigation. I thought why not, I can just keep it in the car. When I tried to update the maps it was ridiculously cumbersome and the whole device looked so dated. These companies should've long ago pivoted towards producing the best navigation software. I suppose they can still target trucks and buses, maybe?
No idea, but I know in Japan that those navigation gadget makers make a killing selling updated maps each year via USB sticks. Then I know there are google maps based devices that are constantly updated free of charge and detailed enough. Kind of a nobrainer in my book which one to choose.
