get out of this dog now before it's too late. I bought this thing last week and it's been down every single day since

Give it a chance, it's been down before. It has a good shot at a real move.

PWAV was unfortunate. Some won't work. It's hardware and hardware plays are notoriously difficult to hold. RACE never established a base. Fundamentally too early, but that looks like a big winner in the future. They can't sing until the orchestra is seated. You can't sing to rap. You can't race without ubiquitous cable modem. PWAV will be back and so will RACE. It isn't their time yet.

Don't buy down trending stocks. Avoid cheapos. I hate the fact that IATV is under $5. It's there because it's plenty risky. They are like RACE. They need infrastructure in place before they can be considered to be a viable on-going firm. What they have ought to work, but you don't know if it will catch on with the public even if the infrastructure is in place. At least they are public in comparison to Wink and ICTV which pressures the company to find the thing that works. They can't just pretend to be successful. They have to make it go if it will.

In this circumstance you have to be a watcher. not a holder. You have to wait for certain critical milestones to be put in place like public enthusiasm for the Dallas and SF rollouts. When those milestones are realized, the stock will rapidly rise. That's the crowd you want to join even if the stock backs off to where you could have gotten it more cheaply. This is contingent on the crowd hopping on the stock band wagon and busting it out of the base. If you buy at the top of that break, you're doing the best thing possible. Why? Because it keeps you long. If the stock backs off, you won't sell. By the time it goes through your buy you won't care so you won't be tempted to sell. Then you're married. Good. Better than being single even if she's a dog. After a year the stock is double where you bought it. Now you have no reason at all to sell. That's how one stock can make you a million. You get on a good horse and never get off.
