Xavier, you made an astute observation. I had taken Robert at his word, like I do everyone here until they prove themselves are untrustworthy. Robert has now done so. In his post:
techstocks.com which is entitled "Todays lession is about being a day trader vrs a investor." he ended with

"IMHO the thing to rember here is I have invested in Iomega, Not intell, or CNBC. The company my money is in is doing well. UMM should I buy more now? "

An investor does not sell his whole position so as to get back in a point or two cheaper. I trade IOM too. But only 1/4 of my total position. The rest stays put or I know I'd miss the big action. So Robert is not an investor in IOM, he is a pure trader. Long today, long gone tomorrow. That's cool. What isn't is that he is trying to fool the folks here into thinking he is an IOM investor. Lord knows why. "An investor is a trader who guessed wrong." That still busts me up. It's especially true of us internet junkie, online broker trading fools.
