You have made a good decision by divorcing yourself from this stock regardless of how it works out. This is a good lesson for you about holding for the long term and how that can be just as specious as short term trading. If something doesn't work, get rid of it. There is always something better to buy. Always.

I wouldn't have gone into HLIT because it is still going down. You're thinking in terms of "it's cheap". It's cheap all right and likely therefore to get cheaper. Your next lesson is about buying dear, buying stocks that are headed up. That isn't easy to determine. You have to learn to buy a stock that is coming out of a base. There's plenty out there.

Nonetheless, you have to be proud for extracting yourself. This is only being objective. You'll find it helps far more than it hurts. If ATHM doesn't get going, sell the rest of it and detach yourself from monomania. You can always come back later. This pile of paper won't run away.
