MDFI - got my copy today

Was a big fool once by overstaying my welcome with one of these pump and dump deals. I received a mailer for a chinese gold stock KeyGold (OTCBB:KYGC). I bought in at 93 cents. Next two weeks it moved to about $1.25 and then flatlined for about another week. That's when I should've dumped. I never sold. Two years later its at 8 cents. Down 95%.

Here's the lesson I learned:
1. Only get aboard if stock is a BOTTOM of its recent range.
2. Verify the "news" is not around a while already (following this board should help)
3. TAKE PROFITS where available. Don't fool yourself. These are not good long term holds.
