Dear Sndiego, I have printed, read and re-read this, and I thank you for it. Toward the end you give some advice to Investors, as opposed to Traders. May I ask you two questions?

You state: Remember to always cut losses at no more than 8%, and NEVER let a gain turn into a loss. Is that 8% from your purchase price or 8% from from its highest point?

Further, if I am already underwater by 8% or more, should I bail out now or hold on and wait for the rising tide to lift my boat? (No, I am not trying to make jokes, but I have to smile at least once in awhile.)

Again thank you for your advice. Regards, Irene
