q,

"Should I feel lucky that I sold all 500 shares @59 15/16?...since $60 was my target...I'll get back in 45-50 area. I do believe in your 120 target."

Your situation now is that you've removed a measure of control by exiting completely. 500 shares was enough, IMO, to consider the option of sitting in a core position with 100 to 150 shrs....

"....sell the trading stuff and hold the core stuff."

If the 15 to 25% pullback does not materialize you may find yourself in a quandary.
If it bases out for several weeks, will you have the determination and patience to sit on that cash while holding out for that dip?
If it just keeps going, will you chase it? And if so, commit the entire cash?

There are other questions you may end up having to answer as well.

Of course, there's always the option of a jaunt to the Algarve region in Portugal >>gg<<
