Well, good for you Hank. I don't need any written confirmation from you. If you say you sold at a good price, then fine. I'll believe that you sold. I hope you met your objective. I know I certainly did. Many times over. For 100% of my holdings, which at that time was a much larger number of shares than I've ever held since then.

I'm still WAY up overall, on a percentage basis. I never bought all the way back in. When I buy in for a day trade, those are "free" shares. So, the risk for me is nil (relatively). However, I still enjoy "playing the game" to make a profitable trade. I'm not competing with you Hank. I'm trying to guess the lows and highs for a day. This is NOT serious business for me, Hank. It's entertainment.

Now, as soon as you realize that investing is a different experience for each individual investor, and each investor has their own personal investment objectives and risk models, then maybe you'll quit trying to "win the game" between you and anybody who doesn't agree with your opinions. Maybe you'll quit denigrating others when they express why they believe the way they do. Maybe not. That's part of your underlying personality.

Maybe someday you'll also realize that information provided on a chat thread is put there for discussion, and others can consider it or ignore it at their discretion.

I'm a firm believer in "Information is power". You're a firm believer in RTB. That's a big difference between our two investment styles. So be it.
