**DAY TRADE #2**
Selling LB @ $39.11
Realized gain of $0.11 (0.28%)
This is an example of when to lock in gains sometimes, not just rely on your stop. Or to aggressively move up your stops. I've tried to let stocks run and breathe once their profitable instead of always locking in fast gains - I could have sold this at nearly $40/share - but was hoping for a bigger winner than that if I let it breathe. It reversed from there and stopped me out with a small win.
0.28% x 2.5% = 1bps
Plus the 10bps I made on Trade #1 = 11bps on the day.
