The J Doe portfolio is now down to 4 stocks. I sold off my complete loser of a stock VRTL cutting my loses; I hate having to zero out a few good plays with this stupid play that I knew better to do at the time I did it. I've made 3 mistakes so far and each one was avoidable and caused by a lack of concentration. It is just paper; though I've made different but similar mistakes in my real accounts. I never can understand why I do things with my trading sometimes when I know better. I have an inner voice telling me; don't do it the whole time and I do it anyhow.
