I have traded off and on for the last few years and am slowly reacclimating myself with the process and indicators. Got into a trade yesterday and made a huge gain in a very short time but the process of placing the order and getting out (even worse) was very clunky and stressful.

I do not trade options. Mostly micro caps and momentum plays. What is the BEST & easiest way to get into the trade (initial buy) quickly and even more important, the fastest way out of a trade after I have reached a point that I am ready to take profit and run. Any advice would be appreciated.

Question for everyone. Do you have scanners that you like to use for your created watchlists? If so, what are you scanning for inside that list? Just trying to get others opinion if you have triggers you look for when deciding which stock you want to trade.
