Sorry to hear that John. I don't mean to rub it in, but Dell is a company you must have patience with. It will reward you. It is a long term hold. In my opinion you haven't done to much damage! You MIGHT find a better time to get back in, but why worry about it. I believe it will have doubled in price by Feb thru May. 4 or 5 points may seem insignificant by then. Good luck to ya. D.

<<<< Playing DELL short term is very frustrating. >>> I feel your pain. From my experiences,"They" seem to know our exact tolerance for pain and uncertainty, whether its hours or weeks. And also know what level a stoploss is set at. Three times(long ago) I have sold a bit of Dell. Never cost me less than $7/sh to get it back. But I did get it back, once on the sae day, once two days after selling. Set a stop loss at 50, Dell never got less than 50 1/4 per the records,but they took it anyway. Bought it back at 58. Couple of ideas: Buy some of the Dell back, put it in the attic, wait 2 months. I think you will like it. Or with more risk, you could buy 4 Feb 70 calls and mentally "own" the profits on the 400 Dell. Sig
