LT - since you started talking risk/reward today (I thought you are all reward and no risk kind of roman god all along <GG>), your fortress analogy is a good one. I have a similar sport analogy:

Half time is here and the winning team (gold) leads by 35-0. As a coach would you continue to field your 1st unit (profit) in the second half or would you remove your first unit (taking profit) from the field to unanticipated, but regularly occuring, injury (exposing profit to further risk or a reversal to loss)?
