what a day20 Jan 2020 16:42
Blimey, what an intense day I’ve had, I’m worn out. Wish it was Friday today so I could have two days off!
OCDO, regretted not selling at 1338 when I had the chance. But live to fight another day (Rule 8)
FEVR, regretted diving in too early at 1600 to BUY. I know all too well that there is usually a double drop and that they will probably drop more tomorrow. Incidentally, a rookie mistake with the way I buy using LIMIT trading resulting in me buying two lots of 500 shares at 1600 instead of one. Doh. The knock on effect of this was that I had to sell something today to fund my account. I rushed into it and chose badly. I chose a no stamp duty share that has a good xdivi coming up soon. Knowing I wanted to buy them back (on extended settlement) I bought tooearly and paid too much unnecessarily. Note Rule 9
TLW, decided against selling when they were up 3%+ as they fell to a mere 1% up. At least I decided not to sell instead of actually missing the opportunity
Note to self: Stop trying to trade too many shares at once.
Have added the following to T’s list…
Rule 9 Don’t Panic
