Yea, I guess 6K does get some vote. I recommend keeping this thread for two reasons: 1. A reminder that there should be two primary objectives when buying a stock - be happy to take profit at a predetermined point and also be willing and be glad to take a loss with a stop loss point when things don't go according to plan; and 2. This thread could be for a stock with one of the biggest and most miraculous comeback in history, like Chryler did. I have no vote because I have been trading it and took small gains and losses here and there.

You bought yourself one right Jonathan: 6K tax writeoff. Do yourself a favour and put your money into a conservative mutual fund before you loose ALL your money and end up in some padded room. You seem close to it already.

I second Janski's recommendation in post #3312. Something is better than nothing, plus you can use it to offset some of your gains. I don't even dare to trade it anymore - too scared of getting filled at quarter, while it is on its way down to a nickle.

6K Loss doesn't buy you anything except sour grapes-- John, I've got an almost 6 grand loss myself, paper loss, in my kid's college fund. But I don't see how our being losers in NUKO gives us a special say about whether the thread continues. If people want to keep on reading and posting, why is that any skin off your knee? You are clearly obsessed with this stock for being your biggest loser. You feel burned. I've taken bigger losses, and fortunately enjoyed MUCH bigger gains. Win some, lose some. Just delete the bookmark and put this behind you. This thread didn't cause our loss. We did. This thread provided the perspicacious warning of Mr. Vaughn, whom we should have heeded long ago. Pack it in; let go, you'll feel better and get in the proper mindset to move on to profitable investments.
