Software problems were compounded by mental errors, leading to a bad day.

Hey Reaper,
Thanks again for the recap, good to see your still going strong 🙂 ( except for the lame software errors )
I made a even more stupid mistake today: bought 3800 shares MCVE @ 0.265 instead of selling it there. Stupid, stupid and of course I got immediately filled. When I saw the trading mistake I immediately traded out ( this I learned from you ) for a loss of 19 dollar. Funny thing is, because of my buy @ 0.265 I pushed the price up. So instead of selling 3800 shares I sold 7200 and got out at a average price of 0.262 ( some of the fills were 0.27 ). Lucky, lucky because now I’m short 2600ish shares MCVE ( damn you, partial fills ) and break-even on that trade :).
Regards,
Haxor.
* I mean 7600 shares, not 7200.
