Doc,
If you're a bear (and have money in the bear camp) these last two days gotta be as painful as being long in the last downturn.

I'm pissed I missed some good daytrade opportunities. Glad you made a point and 1/2. Money is money, and it's in your pocket, not in someone elses. DELL could just as easily tanked........

Well maybe not this time, but one day.......it will.

drsvelt,
Never feel bad about making and taking a profit. If you can't be satisfied without selling at the absolute top then you'll always be bummed. Be satisfied with a great day trade. You made what, about 1.3% in a day when Dell closed down $1. That's only about 2750% annualized, not bad. Hell, I'd settle for only 2000%/year <G>. Maybe you shouldn't even look at DELL for awhile if you're going to beat yourself up over it if it goes up.
Great Trade,
Alksi
