That is a good strat Doug. Risk / reward ratio a must. Then hard look down too, as I have a tendency just to look up when going long.
Bummin about aair. JB will be disappointed you did not avg down. >g< but that is a good trading rule. I have been pretty loose about stops in these volatile small caps as I was stopped out of acrt. It made a big swing and was right back in the running. So I give them possibly more leeway than I should. Tight stops are small losses and most losses start out small.

As far as trading vs technical target, it's hard to outguess at times. Reasonable may be the way to go. My trading target on ainn was too high and I should have gone with a 5-9%. But that is easy to say now, many times I have left too much on the table.

thanks and have a great day
bdog
