Here is a post for those who'll listen.

I don't do well in the market. I'm not Zeev. When I look back at the reasons, they are simple I sell my winner's too early, that ought not be a problem, because I'm not being a pig, and pig's never win. The problem is that I don't listen to my stop losses, and create large losses over what should have been small losses. Right now, I'm long EMLX and EMC, and NEWP all positions which I opened much, much higher than they are currently. I promise to learn from my mistakes but don't. If you see yourself in this scenario, try to learn.

I get incredible information from SI, and I'm hoping to use this to point out the biggest problem I (and I believe many others have) Please learn and take your losses early rather than late.

For what it's worth, I sold IDPH, today at $57.50 not a bad run in the last few days from under $50. All I need is about 20 of these transactions to make up for past mistakes.
