April 14, Trades, Closed GBSN, AMRN, Opened AXN, MIFI

GBSN:
Got off to a good start.  Bought the close yesterday, 4.21 Sold the opening rush. 4.57 for a 8.5% gain


AMRN: I took this trade as it looked like it was swinging back around turns out it dropped.  I played this tight and its a good loss as I was able to take a large position  with only .5% risk to my portfolio value.  Sometimes they work, this one didn't

ENTRY: 2.53
EXIT: 2.42

AXN: Got a nice burst today giving it a move to the weekly breakout.  This is the number 2 stock in terms of momentum -- It's one that if it goes, it has already shown what it is capable of.  I've been in since the 1.83 and have added at 191., 1.98-99.

MIFI:
Weekly breakout, which takes out highest weekly close.
Entry : 5.65

April 8 trades

First the positions closed:

RGLS:
After sleeping on this one I realized I had just bought a gap on decent news WITHIN  a flag.  That's not usually a recipe for break away gap.  I believe that my eagerness was a mistake for my normal trading strategy and decided that it was best to get out.  Of course, most mistakes do not wind up in the win column but this one did.

Entry:  17.60
Exit:  18.30
NHTC:
I nailed a nice breakout here but I sold as it came it. This is the type of decision I struggle with. Do I let it consolidate and come in a bit and attempt to capture a bigger move or sell the rip?

Entry: 18.65
Exit 1: 19.66
Exit 2:  19.90

CAPN:
 I nailed an entry and was up over 15% and yet I take a loss. What did I do wrong here?  I suppose I got greedy looking at the weekly and I should have sold the the gap.  My refusal to take the profit was due to the fact that I put small size on this trade.  As it turned out that saved me from a significant loss.  And the exit. we'll I had the wrong handle on my stop and saw the price below where I thought I would be stopped out.  Enter,  oh shit moment.  So I sold.

Entry 7.18 avg
Exit:  6.35.  

New Buys:
CORT
I was early on this one last week and I got hit with a fade.  I go the signal in a 1,2,3 go weekly pattern today and I took it.  T

Entry: $6.26

XON:
Here's a sling shot trade setup.  A high momo stock pulled back to the 10 week and bouncing. This proved to be a good entry today.

Entry: 41.93
AMRN:
Nice expansion on the weekly and daily momo burst.  I feel this presents a low risk entry.

Entry: 2.53
Stop 2.42


TYLS:
I've been waiting on this one for weeks and today I got the 1,2,3 go weekly signal.

Entry: 16.73
