I made 4 trades today which is a record for me and something I don't like to do generally.
Yesterday afternoon, I decided to buy VIAC and NNDM. Both were getting a lot of hype and moving well. It seemed like they would move higher in the morning, so I went for it.
VIAC: I made 6.8%
NNDM: I made 2.0%--it started going sideways in the morning, so I jumped out for a small gain
I decided to buy SKLZ as it was the biggest premarket gainer and was having some great movement. I turned on Warrior Trading live stream (last one for the summer...boo), and he didn't like it because it had a large float. I decided to look for an exit quickly and get out. So, I got a 2.9% gain.
I got excited while watching Warrior Trading this morning. He streams his entire trading day on Thursdays because he donates everything to charity. BTX halted, and he jumped in, so I decided to as well. Bad idea! He is a great trader, but I can't keep up with him as he can trade very quickly. I bought after the halt and had a loss all day. I decided to get out for a small 1.3% loss this afternoon when it moved up a bit. Of course, as soon as I sold it, it jumped up and I would have had a huge gain. Oh, well. I'm glad to be out since I watched it in sadness almost all day.
Yay! Just saw I didn't sell all of my BTX. I had the wrong quantity. I sold 11 at a loss for 1.3%, but I sold 7 at a 14.7% profit!
Also, found a mistake on my tracking spreadsheet. Not sure how it happened, but it is fixed now.
My $100 is now at $239.04, a 3.7% average daily rate.
The market is very choppy these days. I'm hoping for better trading ahead.
