RE: "selling 10% of a holding every time it goes up 20%"

I did some calculations. 4 20% increases is ~ a double.

Comparisons: (column one - no action; two - 10% sale after 20% move)

After 4 20%: 2.07 1.9

After 8 20%: 4.3 3.13

After 12 20%: 8.92 4.8

I expect that the most likely number of 20% moves will be between 8 and 12.
