Short Term Trading Weekend Lounge: 26-29 Oct, page-8

Sometimes things just do not go your way.  Following  Mark Minervini on Twitter and mostly sitting on sidelines waiting.
Tuesday watching MEM, BD1 and ANP, wife says my friend has cancelled why don't we go out to lunch seeing it is my birthday.
I hesitate I get that look, yeah f---.   Put stop loss on ANP at 6 cents , hang on hotcopper will not let me in reckons I got ad blocker on
Oh well off we go. Check later ANP dropped but hang on I have got double the amount before ,what happened to stop/loss.
BD1 ran and totally missed it, now sitting on ANP  loss.  Checked with Bell direct . the explanation you had a buy for the same amount as your sell stop /loss (forgot to cancel)  The stop/loss was triggered but system overrode the sell and followed the buy.
Manually sold later for a bigger loss.
Expensive lunch , expensive lesson
Could have been a lot worse and could have been a lot better
