You see what I mean Mark? Careful now. If past experience with these goofs is any indication, they'll soon be calling you a liar, misquoting you, twisting your posts to suit their means and stalking you to the point of threatening violence. Regards, AL.

So you checked this one out thoroughly, hunhh ??? With who? The Lord? Too bad he wasn't around to tell you to sell at $3.75! exchange2000.com Doesn't it just bite when you have over 125% profit in 30 days, and now 3 months later it turns into a loss? Actually, this is the best thing for you. Most pros will tell you that if, as a beginner, you start out making profitable trades, when you encounter your first loss it'll be much larger than if your first trade teaches you how to lose. You said in your first post on this thread, I don't want this to be a bad experience. Well, you still have a chance to get out, with only the loss of your commission! As a "tenderfoot", one of the things you have to learn is that the market is driven by two forces ... greed and fear. Both of these emotions will tell you to hang on to your shares now, greed for the gain that you so foolishly let slip through your fingers, and fear that if you sell now, you'll miss that big spike up with the next news release. Do yourself a favor ... don't listen to anyone! Not your emotions, not Al, and certainly not me (because I'll just twist your words). Listen to your head instead and do the smart thing. Afterwards, it might be a good idea to check this out ... they have a lot of good information for beginners. csi.ca
