Took some $CHOP o/n, sure it was overextended, but it held into the close, so looked like a gapper; Chinese stocks are lower this morning, so perhaps that's what making CHOP gap down. In any case, i'm done taking stocks o/n, unless it's day 1, otherwise too risky
So $CHOP was a disaster (twice now i lost $500 gapping it ...) , $CCCL however I played really well, with conviction and (relative) patience.
Later came $BLFS which put me in the green;
Up $262
Update: Added $100 to p&l on BLFS, ended the day up $367
Update 2: came back in the afternoon and traded some more, see below, added 350ish, ended up $700 on the day
Lessons:
- Only o/n favourable setups, on Day 1 only!
Trades:
$BCLI in pre on news; my avg was pretty poor so got rid of it for just about b/e
$PRSN tiny position on news; will add if vol comes in and forms an uptrend; sold in pre as i was up 10c ish
$CCCL on news - traded it well, except i fat fingered a sell for entire rest of position at the 1.70s, so i re-entered at the same price, then added lower as I felt this would be today's runner. Didnt panic when it went against me, and sold later into pops
$NPD short on china weakness
$BLFS on momentum; sold some into a pop and bought back lower; nice easy play
$CCCL again on a dip; tight stop; gave some back
$CCCL tried the long one more time on this perk
$CMRX on news, small position, quick flip
Afternoon trades:
$HNR missed the big move, bought some on the dip ... daiimn didnt expect it to bounce so hard so quickly

$HNR again, only 500 shares
$GBSN on VLTC PSTR poppage (three fuel each other) small position
$SZYM nice b/o on the daily at 4, with huge gap to fill; took the quick money into the pop
$NVGN bought on the dip; didnt stop out when i should have
$CHOP made about $150 on this trade, reducing my loss on CHOP today to just under $400
$BCLI perking above vwap, might run into the close; took half on the pop, half when it seemed to have lost steam
Afternoon trades
