I am long AOL at $171...it seems I have a knack for buying high and selling low...I have sold at a loss my last 9 holdings...Man, it's looking more and more like I couldn't pick the winner of a 1 horse race....anyway, I've seen my assets dwindle over the last yr and a half from $120,000 to my current $28,000...AOL is my last hope at ever seeing $100,000 again, only now I know I'll probably have to wait 3 or 4 yrs to do so...A lesson to all...DON'T BE ME...If you buy a good company like AOL and it experiences a selloff...DON'T SELL!!! Hold for the long haul....oh yeah and to rub salt in my own wounds...I owned 850 shares of MSFT in 1995, it's since gone through 5 splits...you figure out how big a loser I am...Sometimes I wonder if the street already knows me...."What? Garcia BOUGHT? Quick...everyone...SELLLLLL!!!!!"

Jacktoad, good buy. Same here,Started buying at 142 and spread evenly down to 138. I didn't get 135, but I have all my shares back. I am not on margin yet but I am thinking to get in margin if it goes to 132-135 tomorrow.That was the last breakout spot. I doubt however that it will go there first of all, and secondly that it will stay there long enough to buy. I think 132 on it's way to 180-200 is a real good 30% profit and few people are going to let that go buy. Another great AOL blue light special. What a great trading stock, TA
