good times, bad times...I cheered myself up today by selling all of my IDTI, LSI, CC and AMAT. Hey, its not like these stocks haven't gone up without me before, but they're not going back down with me.
Its amazing to me (that since my first trade in IDTI back in 1996) how volatile this bad baby is!!! This last round I started buying way too early, somewhere around 24, and bought my last at 10.05 and had nothing left when it got to single digits. Unbelieveably, I made a profit, by making my first few buys small lots and getting bigger as it came down and selling a little here and there on big upticks.
This has been good, but truly, the final sale is the catharsis. I am released from my bondage. I'm sure to be back in, probably too early, and it will run without me, because I sold too early, or bought too little, but remember, you never go broke selling at a profit! |
