Notes

APEN short trade 1/3:

APEN is not a clear bag holder chart. It gapped up and was selling of in pre market, the stock was looking really weak and I was looking to short it. I could not short early in PM beacuse TradeZero could only short after 7am. The first trade I took was a loss. I was impatient thinking that is all the bounce we were going to get, but as I entered my trade the the stock popped a little. Here I decided to quickly exit the trade for a not so big loss, and re-entered once I saw the bounce was finally failing. 

My mistake: This trade I was chasing weakness, and I learned that I should only short a bounce if the bounce seem's significant enough in relative to how the stock's price action is moving in the day, and the pop should be around 8%+ to have decent risk reward. I would only use this dead cat bounce pre market short strategy if the locates are cheap or if you already have locates for the ticker.
