O'Neil's statements are so right and so easy to say! Hindsight
is 100% and the statements defy any plausable arguement!BUT
and is there not always a BUT! I find many stocks that fake
you out! and a rapid departure in many will cause you capitol
loss, just as sure as staying in one and losing more of your
investment. If you pick wrong and cut your losses after a
certain % is a speculators credo, takes away the LONG TERM
commitment to a company, and I have held many that if I had
bailed after a certain % down trend I would have given up
some impressive gains! Depends on the person and their
circumstances! I agree if you are a scalper, or day trader
your exit plan needs to be executed as stated. BUT, if you do
your DD and get a good solid investment going, I disagree
you should cut and run at the first dip! Trying to read a
book and beat the street at the same time to me is folly!
Stocks go up and down, its simple and you can quote ENOTS,
Just buy a stock that is going up! and if it is not going
up, don't buy it..... Think I should write a book? Well
probably not, maybe just start a business news paper.
