Day P&L: $+12470.18 | Total R: +17.06R

BBGI was the name that dominated my morning. I saw it gapping up nearly 50% right out of the gate, and with a float of just 0.72M, I knew volatility would be my friend. I took my first trade long at 7.90, riding the sub VWAP trap as it pulled back and then bounced off that level. The trade played out beautifully, with an exit at 8.91 netting me over $5,000 for a clean 6.85R. The tape was lively, and I could see buyers stepping in decisively after the pullback.

That initial success set the tone, so I went back to the well on BBGI at 12.11. Another sub VWAP trap, and again, it worked like a charm as the stock pushed to 13.24. This one brought in another $4,526.50 and a solid 6.19R. The morning felt great, but I was aware that the momentum could shift quickly, especially after riding two back-to-back winners.

However, I got a bit too aggressive on my next couple of trades. I tried to catch the bounce in BBGI again after a dip at 11.67, but it didn’t hold, and I lost about $400. I let the losses pile up slightly as I tried to find the bottom, which wasn’t the best decision. The tape showed selling pressure, yet I still tried to force the long. BBGI was choppy, and I had to remind myself to respect the price action.

In the mid-morning, I took a few more shots at BBGI, including a washout long entry at 10.56. This time, it worked out with a gain of $1,876.58. But then I pressed my luck again and got caught in a drop while trying to catch another bounce at 13.60, leading to a significant loss of over $5,100. That was a tough pill to swallow, especially since I had already locked in decent profits.

After a series of ups and downs with BBGI, I shifted my focus to IBIO and OCG, both of which were showing some movement. IBIO didn’t provide much, as I took a quick scalp that ended up in a loss. OCG had some potential, but I was still feeling the weight of my earlier trades. I managed to score a small win on OCG later in the day, but it felt more like a consolation prize.

The overall market today seemed to favor low-float stocks, especially in the communication services and healthcare sectors. The volume was rotating significantly, and it was clear that traders were looking for quick moves. I could see both BBGI and OCG engaging in some wild swings, which I tried to capitalize on but often found myself on the wrong side of the tape.

What I did well today was identifying the initial setups on BBGI and executing those trades cleanly. I managed to catch a couple of solid moves early on and maximize my wins. However, I didn’t cut my losses quickly enough later in the day. The overtrading and trying to force entries when the tape was clearly shifting against me were mistakes I need to avoid going forward.

Trading grade: B+. My entries were solid at the start, and I had larger winners than losers, but I let some trades get away from me, which cost me more than necessary.

Tomorrow, I’ll focus on being more disciplined with my entries and exits. I know the setups can work, but I need to maintain my composure and stick to the plan, especially when the tape starts to shift.
