Those guys, unlike me, are bullet proof. They get 100:1 leverage, I am happy if I get 4:1 and when they screw up they get bailed out I don't. On CPQ I made the right call so far. With age you get more patient on entering a stock. Even so I entered at 26 which was at least 5 points too early. I find it to be acceptable to average down from there even though it went down another 20% after my first buy. Once your in you get more serious about the investment. When I am 60 I will be even more precise hopefully maybe I will come within 10% of accurately calling a bottom!!!!! DrRisk
