Should have followed by own advice:

$5 for infi I said I'd start buying. Well follow your own
advice!

So I went through one of the entries from the biotech contest
today, looking for ideas, and I feel a bit better now.
There was huge damage in the first list I peeked at. It is
comforting in a sick way to see others with stocks that are
down 50% or more.

Well, I may beef up Infi over the summer, or maybe before
aacr/asco. Probably I should have considered waiting til a few
weeks before those meetings, then started buying. The main
problem with me is that when I bring up a quote, it seems so
static--I forget that the trend is down and that I would do
well to pick and choose better entries. I'd save a lot. Sure
Infinity is down 50% in the past year--but it may very well be
down 75% soon.

I should only allow myself 1000 shares of anything in any
given week, or say five grand a week--that would force
me to do everything slower and more carefully. Such a clutz.
Or even better, bury myself in Warcraft, where I will be
an even bigger clutz, but at least it is all pretend.
