Hi Robert O,

I have felt that same emotion many times over the years.

Her's the worst part of it.When it hits 20 you'll go back to your last post and wonder why you didn't buy more it was obviously a value.

The reality of the matter is we all get a level of fear that reduces our objectivity.

Upward price action creates joy and greed - then we want more.

Don't let me talk you into anything - but it just is difficult to do the opposite action of what intuitive emotions cause us to do.

I find when I'm fearing the worst is often the best time to buy again. 11.47 is 12 month low

Make a note to do one more modest addition and sell off the highest cost "add to" when it is profitable and then you've worked your cost down modestly.

Then let em run.

See how easy it is?

Thanks for posting an honest post about your thought process.

Bob
