Richard, Welcome back after such a long absence, I wasn't posting when you were but I have read most of the old posts, lurking and learning. You asked the worst person on this thread whether to unload NBR. Two reasons, one, I unloaded yesterday just before a ten point move. Two, I have bought and held (but not for long,ggg) most of the OSX stocks and often at that! Buy and hold is kind of foreign to my vocabulary, I always look at the opportunity cost of holding non performing stocks. FGH was my biggest exception to this philosophy and look where that got me. UPR and a few others I held for a three to six months for doubles, but that's hardly buy and hold. Good luck with NBR, a lot depends on whether Boom 2K takes OSX up to 140 or higher and tomorrow will tell a lot as it just bucked through resistance today. I personally can hope for a pullback, my second besides energy play of the week should be done tomorrow sometime. 10% on the OSX kind of took the dew off the roses of my 10% BTK's move this week, Congrats to all SD'ers on a great day in the patch, Roebear
