>>>If your sitting with a 15K profit and sell you could be giving as much as 5K to
Uncle Sam. This 5K is lost forever and will never be gotten back.<<<


And your 15K may also evaporate and actually become a loss.
But dont worry. Uncle Sam will generously offset 3K out of your loss.
I *never* think of tax consequences. If I make $1million, i will gladly pay 300K to Uncle Sam.
