In a positional trade one gives the trade a certain amount of room to work out within a specific timeframe. There is a limit to the amount one allows the trade to move against one before closing it out, and that depends on the expectation of the stock's performance and risk/reward of the trade.

Are you still holding WCOM? Do you have any sell stop here? The company announced a huge debt recently.
