Hey Linda,
I'm trying to learn discipline, and I'm much better at it now than before, but I'm still making mistakes -- over the last 3 days I was creating a position in ACRT during the drop. Of course, I sold in a panic moment...AFTER I sold I checked the chart and confirmed that the bottom trendline wasn't near broken. DUH! I did buy back a smaller position before the move up but I took a loss on the whole thing instead of looking smart with a big gain.

The key thing is to learn from this mistake. Hopefully it will allow me to make less of them in the future....
