Mike,

Not to beat a dead horse...but remember that when you lock in a profit with the intention to get back in after a dip, that dip must be larger than the tax that you pay on the original gain...otherwise, it's a trade that wasn't worth making....if one assumes a 20% tax, the stock needs to drop $0.20 for every dollar gained plus a round trip of commissions just to make a break even trade.

Just some thoughts..

Paulo
