July thoughts: Need to review and eliminate dumb trades for next month. Over $15k here but still green on the month. Some of these should have been big winners especially $BMNR $MBIO and $SQNS. Should have never got in $AGH.

Messed up a good opportunity on $SNGX . Definitely overtraded, took 4 trades 3 losers and 1 winner that got me to breakeven. Not trading anymore today. 😮‍💨

High volume on a stock indicates something going on $XBP. Need to wait for confirmation instead of sizing on frontside. At least I covered under vwap and added on the secondary bounce setting risk at HOD. Didn't like that it opened flat after the halt down.

Should have gotten more size after the red candle on $IXHL in the $1.50's. Nice 50 cent fade off the highs post halt open. Covered the other half when it bounce off of the open halt price.

Need to reverse engineer this pump $PTHL. A lot of 13G's in May then it floated up for 2 months just to get destroyed today. I'm sure will get a filing saying they sold their shares.

Disappointed in my $HWH trade. Got in too soon on the red candle partial size but low volume. Goal was for a break of prior bar, then risk HOD. I only added small of the $2.80 break and was only in 40% size. Got out under vwap should have waited for a green candle to exit.

Decent short after the halt up on $STAI no follow through. Missed some adds though.

Nice halt up on $STAI I knew better not to short it once it was over vwap it never broke prior bar lows and shorts using premarket highs as a stop all got stopped out on the halt up. Let's see what it does after, don't like the tight halt bands though.

$VWAV might be an interesting stock once it breaks the uptrend. Might not happen until EOD, or holds and gaps up tomorrow. Once it reclaimed vwap it has never dipped below so def. shorts are stuck and Longs are comfortable until trend breaks.

Small short win on $VWAV after the HOD clearout then trendline break. Got out at vwap but tried to short the break of prior bar and it reclaimed but missed the Long opportunity from $6.40 to HOD

Fairly easy trade on $SMX tried to only add above vwap to keep my ave up, risking PM highs. Missed the move on $LIDR wanted to short at $6.10 breaking prior bar low but missed it with their amended offering that came out and it halted down.

Waiting for $VWAV to break prior bar lows since it broke pm highs. But it needs to break a green candle not a red, otherwise it might just be a pullback.

$AIM Recent R/S low float, did Sold 1M units with 1 common stock and 3 warrants for $9.50. No wonder it squeezed premarket and is selling off now.

$AGH are you the next $OST?

Good thing I didn’t short this lmao should have went long when it trapped shorts in the morning. Plus I don’t like trading on my phone and need to enjoy the day with the family but alerts keep triggering on $LIDI
