Where are you getting your ideas? Do you have some type of screener or something that brings stocks that meet your criteria to the top?
Do you have a criteria? (I don't need to know what it is)
I ask because your picks just seem to be random. Almost like you hear about a stock then try a figure out a criteria that it will fit.

Im not using a screener yet. I subscribe to a trader that tweets out his thoughts and ideas throughout the day, and puts out a market video nightly. I'm also on FinTwit.

I know i'm not doing this right, need to work on it, so far i have been disciplined about one thing...keeping my losses small. So i'm good. I'll figure it out. Part of it is I'm lazy, i should be spending more time working on process, making notes, keeping a journal instead of screwing around on my IPad on the couch while i have CNBC running as background noise (which i mostly dont even listen to.

I'll get there eventually. For now, need to slow down.

Yeah I know. All time highs. I’m managing risk. In a different market environment, I’d handle it differently

if we get an orderly pullback on the stock, I might buy back the 100 I sold
 
What? I aint secondguessing your trades. You are an artistic trader and that's something I know absolutely nothing about but am interested in.
I just wanted to see some charts from your successful trades. "Any landing that you can walk away from is a successful landing." Flight school.
If you have any old chart images showing your past successful trades they'd be interesting to see. Looks like you're doing fine to me. Maybe take a screenshot for your own files of charts that you look at before hitting the enter button. Over time a pattern will emerge? Improvement's happening.

No no I wasn’t thinking you were second guessing and in fact I appreciate the constructive feedback, I’m so new at this style. . I will look but IIRC since I started formalizing my trades, and keeping records which is only VERY recently, this is my first successful trade.

unless you count the SPY that I bought just before the close Friday and sold half hour ago. but that was more taking a flier and bottom fishing and less of a trade using process.

what do you mean by “artistic”
