Jim, I agree with your opinion about locking in some of your profits during a good trade. On the other hand, if the indicators that you are using look even stronger +1/2 or +1 1/2 into the trade, adding to the position may not be such a bad idea.

Let's face it, if the stock that you are trading is strong...there is little upside technical resistance...the sector that you are trading in is strong, and the market is strong...why not go "longer?" You already have a cushion of profit to buffer you against a loss, and there may be a great opportunity to make a bundle on the trade.

The only aspect of adding to a winner that I am VERY cognizant of is the percentage of my trading capital that is allocated to that one position. Too much is too risky, regardless of what the indicators are telling me!

Regards,

Michael Turner
