Hey Jude; I wish I had some bit of good advice for you with regard to ORBI. There is an old rule that I use, If your up on the money and the stock falls more than 10% Get Out! If your down on the money decide how badly you hate what the company has done to your investment and when you can't stand it any more, wait one hour (look at the chart) read all you can to gain a more calm perspective and LOOK at the volume of the stock the lower the volume the harder that stock has in achieving its former level (SELL)! Like it's because I can't spell worth a lick, never could! If it wasn't for spell check I'd have bought the farm long ago! Before spell check was invented I was lucky enough to have the services of the Secretary for the Dean of the School of Business at SIU (thank god). As for ORBI, that stock ticked me off, I held a call option on that, it cost me 4 grand. So I'm not a proponent of their company at this point. As unfair as that may be, I put all companies that don't deserve any more of my money on a mental list. I don't lose many times but, when I do I'm not real happy with the company! (Unfair, probably.) Last summer a Walgreen (WAG) call option cost me 10 Grand. You can imagine what goes through my mind when I see on of their commercials.
