I've left gobs and gobs of money on the table by trading instead of holding

I think that was the point I was making. Getting fancy with complex options positions, etc. In this bull stretch, that was the wrong strategy.

But then again, who knew that we'd be on a bull tear for almost 3 straight weeks? Unprecedented, so.......that's why we trade. I wrote calls on many stocks for protection at the end of October, thinking we'd go down under 10K. I think this time, we were out-timed. So I am going to lose a few of them, and the upside. I am losing some of my JDSU at give away prices....for example.

So is it now time to trade some more, because we think we're at the top, or stay the course? <G>
