The general rule is that you don't sell when the stock pulls back. You sell when it pulls back and then fails to make a new high. The problem is figuring out how much of a pull back is normal and how quickly it should resume. There are no simple answers. One of the things that I don't like about this market is that it is just way too choppy. Extreme volatility is a sign of overall market top, but it is not a timing mechanism. It is just one of those things that hints at you...like days getting shorter doesn't tell you when the snow will fall. But you know it is in the cards. This is my long winded way of saying that in this kind of market, sometimes a simple pullback turns into a 30% drop while you are waiting to see if it will resume the uptrend.
