Chicken!! >GBG<

Take 1k of one of your small caps and play with the MMs. Raise the bid 1/16 and when executed, sell it back @ 1/16 below the ask..
assuming at least 1/4 point spread. It's fun, profitable and very little risk since U are holding long term anyway. Try it. You'll like it.

I know how you feel, back in Sept. I bought TER, LRCX KLIC near their lows only to sell for a 30% gain a month or so later. If I would of held on for a few more months I would have made 300 to 400%. I failed to see the forest from the trees and didn't recognize how ridiculously under valued they were at the time. I vowed that I would not make the same mistake twice. Even with this run up the Oils are still ridiculously under priced and oil will come back its only a matter of time. I plan on making some real money from this group and don't care if it will take me 2 to 3 years to do it. Won't even consider selling until my portfolio has at least doubled or we are driving solar powered cars.

P.S. I bet your computer is still on :-).

Good Luck,

Rory

Turned the computer back on at 4 to discover I now have twice the gains of when I turned it off this morning - all with no trades!!

Maybe if I have my electricity shut off I'll get rich?? Can't wait to see where the prices are by the end of the week! Gotta fight this trading urge!
