Tunica: Thanks for the post. Like I said, I'm a very very crappy seller. I bought several equities several times last year and made one day 20% non-leveraged gains only to see them go up 100% FROM THERE. Greed is yucky when it goes against you (ie: you hold and watch profits disappear), but it isn't any fun watching 20% gains taxed at 39.6% turn into 100% gains taxed at 20% :( That's why I kept 1/2 this time, and will fight my urge to sell at NDX 4k (will maybe sell another 1/2 of the remaining 1/2 there). Thanks again.
