Aegis, it's 20/40/50. I take profits automatically if I get 20% in a day, 40% in a week, or 50% in less than a month. I have found that I make more money by being less greedy, and these levels are good spots for bounces. Take a look at the ZONA chart for the last 3 days. It opened down 50% yesterday, and has not traded lower since. Of course sometimes this causes me to leave some profits on the table, but more often than not I get a chance to recycle the short. Oh, BTW, it's mostly a rule for short sales. I usually don't have a problem with profits on my longs. <g>
