Some stocks I buy for a short term play. Others I hold longer term. Even though I bought PCES at .20 I have always believed it would come back higher.

Besides I like Katie, her picks, and her style!!!

I haven't seen one stock go straight up yet. That's not to say that PCES might not be 0.06 again on Monday.

Thanks, Jeff

Jim B. . . . thank you very much. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and mean a lot to me. The memories of some are very short, I'm glad you remembered!!

Katie K.

P.S. I "picked" PCES when it was .11 X .13. It is currently .19 X .22. I "picked" DDEQ when it was in the $3 range and it went to $7 and now leveled off in the $5.50 range. I like to have fun but I am serious about my stocks.

Super response, Jim!

Many will continue to resent her democratic pick as though she had made them buy it...and prevented them from cutting their loss quickly and cleanly--if they were unsure of their DD, or simply had not done any. When I have a profit on a volatile stock (and was it volatile that day), I don't even leave the real time quotes to go for a sandwich. I like the trading pattern on PCES this week, but there is always a time for profit taking, or partial profit taking, to cover your costs.

I have about ten stocks that were swing trades that turned into long term investments! So I understand the feeling, both of selling too soon and of selling too late! Good luck to all.
