Had a dip buy opportunity that arose on this one I was watching this morning. Noticed it started holding a bit after falling got in for a quick gain made $85 for my paper account in less than 3 minutes. Not a bad way to start my morning.
Entered a couple of positions for an overnight swing trade on expectations of some continued momentum.Entry 200 shares, 100 at 7.71 and 100 at 7.75 slight pull back provided a bit of opportunity.Sold into a bit of a perk as it hit $7.85 in premarket. Was glad to be out as market opened and it didn’t go up.Small gain for my paper account as this wasn’t what I was looking for, but still came out a bit up at $24.
Entered two 1000 share positions long for overnight opportunity. In 1000 at .57 and 1000 at .58Set take profits at .68This is where the flexibility to watch and make more intelligent entry and exits would help. I had a set take profit in what I felt was guaranteed and had a $210 gain to paper account. had I realized it was doing as well might have held a few days and made at least twice that.
Had a quick morning paper trade on CODX. I shorted as it seemed to be hitting some resistance spots between 1.86-2.04 then covered all my shorts at 1.79. Nice little gain up on cancer detection news, but more than likely comes back down.
Definitely could have held this one longer as I would be up around $300 at this point in the day. Given this is paper who knows the availability of actual short-able shares with brokers I have.
