Trades 10/04/15


Made some good trades out the gate, could have been more patient but i was juggling to many position at the same time;
$CHOP and $ROSG o/n positions and silly $PSTR uncancelled trade from yesterday brought me to just about even on the day instead of being up nicely.
Further trades on PSTR BCLI put me into the green again; -400 on o/n positions hurt me today, need to review again what I take o/n; 

Made a few too many trades, but not more than 2-3 positions at the same time. Traded in and out rather quickly


Trades: 

$VLTC in pre, small position - added and sold into the morning spike; made another trade a few minutes later, wasn't the best entry but it came back

$PSTR I must have had GTC sell orders from the day before (why GTC?) that I hadn't cancelled, and they got executed premarket ... I immediately covered at the offer and that silly mistake cost me $150 ... 

$PSTR made back those losses going long out the gate; left a ton on the table ... geeez

$PSTR again on a dip


$VLTC again

$NYMX on vol pop

$BCLI on news; in 4.75 out for 10c,

$PSTR again, patiently waited for this pop; cant complain about the missed gains as after the pop that i sold into it quickly dived under 6 before popped back up



$PSTR looked about to spike



$PSTR twice more, once cut it for even, second time worked better
