John,

Unless you feel confident in your ability to pick "the" top, why would you ever sell an advancing stock? I'm talking about the trend now, I realize there will be profit taking. Why would you risk being whipsawed??

Hi John,

I also had the itchy finger. As it opened lower and the Nas was in the red I sold all 82,5. Wife came home, had dinner and a heart attack when I tuned in 2 hrs later. The only compensation was that I bought a bundle of AOL at opening. But it still hurts
