<<Now don't shoot me, because I already feel "sick and silly" but not "poor" but when ABX hit $20 last week, I sold half of it. I'm sure you can imagine my joy this week, going through the "only if" scenario. I may feel a little dumb, but if I had done a "buy and hold" with ABX I would only be up 17.6% year to date.>> Don't get me wotng, I'm no "buy & hold" fanatic, but try to make a real decent profit if I trade, Sure, I'm not against trading hard & fast, but I also am willing (& strong enough) to hold when I think it the right approach, and to admit when I was wrong.
