Guy,

>>Now remember, you're buying this stock when it has come down. That takes at least
some guts. But then, if the stock does fall through the bottom, you have to turn
around and sell it the next day. Initially, I found it difficult to call my broker and
sell so soon. Silly pride I guess. My solution was to transfer nearly everything to an
on-line broker. Or you could just not care what your broker thinks. :-) <<

LOL! You are the only other person (besides myself) who found the broker to be a problem in the sell decision. I got around it the same way you did. I found it was easier to decide on selling without having to deal with my broker's input. I think selling is one of the toughest decisions an investor can ever make and getting another opinion usually clouded my judgement. I still have a full service broker, too for the same reasons you mentioned, but I now have by far, the majority of my assets in my online account.
