Well guys i posted a message encouraging newbs to post on here saying there was nothing they could do that was stupider than MY worst moments, and today i felt the need to prove it. I went long COOL just 200 shares premarket, then added 200, then was just about out at the dead highs, then for some reason i decided to average into cool long cause i thought i could read the tape on that illiuid piece of shit, then just added, and threw out a hail mary at the bottom, only to tell myself, K your wrong, dont let this get out of hand, so i puked it all at the bottom. Stupid trade, didnt follow my rules and ended up getting owned. Lesson, DONT TRADE ILLIQUIDS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.
Also took a bath on FB right off the open which is probably what lead me to piling into COOL, just knew there was no way i was making up for it in this market, so i decided to force something on an illiquid. But the FB trade wasnt a bad trade, i was just wrong, i didnt puke at the dead lows, waited for a pullback to get out, added when i thought it was a winner, then punched on the bounce and saved myself half a buck.
Last but not least is YHOO, i chased a short on it so did it with garbage size, and got out ok on it on the short side, but then i fucking drilled it with lots of shares on the long side at the absolute bottom, but for some reason cause of how much i was down, and how much pain i was in i decided to bail on all YHOO for a nothing profit even though i had the dead low, another douche move on my part. Think i had like 1500 shares when i bought the dead low on YHOO, and made nothing on it, cause i was scared at that point since i was down so much, lol.
The point im getting at for those who dont want to post their trade ideas, is that there is nothing you can do that will be dumber than the stuff i pull off, so please post trades and analysis, so we can all learn together.
