Week in review (Jun 19 - 23) - broken phone
I went away for a short trip last week, and my phone broke, so I couldn't login to my account or do anything.
One of my GTC orders filled though (for a small loss / breakeven):

Notes and Lessons #
I had the GTC order set on IBM at the same price that I entered at. IBM had spiked a couple weeks ago with all the other tech/AI stuff. I was just trying to get out without any losses.
The price started coming back down last week. In hindsight, I could have set the GTC price a bit lower to take a tiny profit.
Main lesson this week though -- bring a backup phone with you.
