I got my ass handed to me> Plain and simple. Every single trade I took for a day trade failed. The losses were not staggering but they were still losses. I could have made a profit in a few of them had I taken it when it was there but I wanted more.
I took $MNKD, $LLEN, $RSOL , $GTXI and $YONG every single one sucked. It was extremely choppy out there and I anticipate it may stay that way through tomorrow until Big Ben is finished.
It wasn't all bad news yesterday I took some profit on my $BIOL and $VPCO swings I bought $VPCO @ 55 cents and sold for 1.30 not to shabby.
