Trading Review: 05-29-2015








Back Account: -$2538. Bit of a disappointing day. Obviously looking at the tickers traded I wasn't profitable on a single one of them. Was up quite decently on ESI, GENE, and there was a solid trade on HRTX after losing quite a bit in the morning, only to give a little back late day.

Positives:
- It was a slow day for me and despite this I did have some solid trade ideas.
- Narrowly missed the breakout on VBLT but didn't get too concerned about it.

Negatives:
- Literally same mistake on ESI as OHGI yesterday. Got too much size on too quick and didn't take profits quick enough.
- Too much home run mentality. Was in decent profits on GENE and ESI and didn't take any off (although I was offering just really need to be aggressive with that first target).

AVGO: Don't recall exactly what this trade was but obviously it was a small loss so not too worried.






















ESI: Was looking for a squeeze after the nice breakout but got rejected. Really solid trade... But exactly the same as OHGI yesterday I didn't take profit quick enough and got too much size on.






















GENE: The actual trade on this was breakeven but today was a loss of $600 because that's how much I was up unrealised. Again just wanting home run too much.






















HRTX: Was too short biased on the gap up, lost a little more than I should have. Hindsight around 10:30 it was a clear long which is when I was stopping out... But I managed to catch the midday long and then lost a little money trying to dip buy it (impatiently) in the afternoon.






















TBIO: Was looking for a the pop back to $3.50 as a long so that I could load up the short there because this stock met the requirements for shorting on day one. Overall happy to miss the short though because it didn't give the good RR pop that I wanted to get short.






















VBLT: Very narrowly missed the breakout which was annoying because it was a nice play... But I didn't chase so I'm happy with that. Tried the long when it was holding support and didn't work.
