<<Buying at a low is something I need more practice doing.>>

I have had PLENTY of practice in buying stocks that have given me an opportunity to buy 'em at lower and lower prices after I've bought them. -g-

Sometimes this has worked out very well. Sometimes though, I've bought more and more, and the company's just dropped right into bankruptcy. On balance, it's worked out better for me when I've decided to add on stock decline rather than holding or selling. That'd be my experience. Others may differ. Then too, I'm pretty well diversified (holding over 200 positions), and I can be, and have been, wrong a lot.
