I'm in and out so often, it would make your head spin. The key to trading stocks like Apple is to take the positions and be out quickly if they turn negative. And if they run ... oh baby! Just trading around my long position in Apple from $XX. And as great as that long has been the trading has been many, many, many times that. You realize of course that your snippets of my posts will only carry water here? Why not post the other ones too? Nah .... s-u-b-j-e-c-t-i-v-i-t-y. Hey, I don't even use Apple tech .... I'm a Microsoft user. My daughter, wife and the rest of the world are nuts for it so that's where my money goes when I trade. Nope, not enough value created yet to get back in. Still waiting for a capitulation on Apple below $500. I think we'll get it .... I'm almost sure of it and I don't like to predict the future, I trade the present and invest in the long term. You've been saying that about Apple for as long as you came up out of your hole. It's laughable really but, hey ... it's your money ... or lack of it. Your blindness and subjectivity was a lost opportunity. Geez, Zaxy ... I know you're intelligent. It's easy to see. It's just too bad you can't let go of those things that don't play in the markets, they hold you back. It's not an insult at all, it's just "what is". You won't insult me with any thing you say about Apple. Fact is, I don't care about Apple for anything other than how they are as an investment or a trade. Nothing more. As I said before, I just bought a new PC, Microsoft. I use Word/Excel, Photoshop. Our servers are all Microsoft. When it comes to trading and investing, only the "what is" matters. Stocks don't care about ideology, the past or the future. Quite frankly, the move from $700 to $500 has made me giddy. It's exactly what is needed to create a new foundation for value. Watch what happens in the relatively near future. Seriously. I've seen it a thousand times before. Hate Apple all you want, but profit from the stock. Ditch the broken stocks where $0.08 is a good day. Cheers.
