Do you have an exit strategy?

Zebra,

i think that William H. deserves to be honored by all here
for his tenacity; it reminds me of the Energizer Bunny ad.

and i'm puzzled by your quote.

history does, in fact, repeat itself more often than not,
sooner or later; but i seem to have misplaced the reference.

Cheers,

David

P.S. I think the discussion of *strategy* (long vs short)
has been worked to death here already. It's been quite some
time since any new ideas have been thrown out (or at each
other). William asked you what's your exit strategy, and I
think that that's a good question because it shifts the focus
to *tactics*.

Most every book on trading stresses the need to have clearly
defined setpoints for taking profits (and stopping losses).

How many of the shorts here would chicken out if Yoohoo?
goes to 100? And how many here would cover their short
if they can make 5 or 10 points on the downside in the next
few weeks?

Is anyone seriously hoping to CVR/SHRT at 40 or less?
