JDub,

Sorry for the delayed reply.

who cares that my memorable June post was on the mark ???
It just show's that you know what you are talking about.
You were no longer emotionally attached to your stock.

total ignorance on the "nausea effect" as I call it where any exposure to a certain stock can repeat minor trauma
Perhaps you are lucky because you feel this now.
Was this the one ingredient you were missing all this time.
Seems to me that you are more of a complete investor than anyone here.
Is the pain that you feel on a daily basis enough to keep you from repeating your outlook of euphoria?
Many of us still don't have this.
Perhaps it is what is required to be truly successful in this game.

Klapp, the answer to your question is emotional, not rational
your response is rational
mine was emotional
the pain is emotional
the pain is there every single day, almost every single hour
and has been for 150 consecutive days !!!


I think you have learned a lot from this pain.
I see it in your posts.
I see it in your trades.
I've read almost a million posts. Countless books.
Perhaps it's pain that we really learn from.

Reread your TA posts.
I've learned a lot from them.
Many of us have.
If your emotions are kept at bey, there will be no limit to your success in this area.

...your tennis game, however, may need more work...
