I was right but I got stopped out.
So instead making $5000, I lost $5000.

I have had this happen before where I was too early and didn't have enough confidence to stick it out.
When a signal hits, and there were many, a stock often seems to ignore that and continues the same direction for awhile.

It is almost impossible to be fully invested trying to
pick market direction. Of course all the analyst were hyping their industry at the top.

I won't attempt to trade that any more.
I going with my neural net, position sizing approach,
hedging approach.
