Green for the day, need to take profits quickly. Holding out for expectation of moves may pay off in big ways on some trades, but this is not my style, nor something I feel comfortable with. I’m willing to relinquish the chance at capitalizing on massive moves for the higher probability of consistent small gains, which I’m proving myself capable of being able to win. It is enough to be right about the direction of a stock in a brief moment, and if by some miracle, as I’ve said before, I am right and am in profits, it is crucial that I lock in the lions share of those profits. If this means beginning to trade with a bit larger size, so rather than closing out 66% I can close out 90% and leave the 10% as FOMO insurance, so be it, I am in a place where I can be comfortable doing so.
Took another small FB play, had alert set for fap down area. Took the play with tiny size. similar situation, didn’t capitalize on as much profit as I could have, holding & hoping, & while the play did end up going in my direction by the end of the day.
