Bought MTW @ $6.52 »

I bought MTW @ $6.50 … my first pick from my new screener (which is basically like my old screener except for looking for stocks over $5.)
I’m heavily leveraged on this pick so my risk is pretty high. I am in for 850 shares which basically means each penny moves me $8.50 up or down.

*I’m always nervous.
