"My trading days may be over" WRONG!!!
This stock may beat us down but IT WILL NEVER take us out of the game!!!
I remember when I first got back into stocks the Summer of 2008. 5,000 off a credit card that was wiped out between LEH and WM (Lehman and WaMu) I didn't give up and I'd put 100 here and 100 there into the market and didn't let the 'loss' destroy my confidence/resolve. It gave me sharp teeth and claws and with some 'luck' in other plays I pulled myself out and am working on 'house money' since 2010 or so...
I put more into those BK'd pigs and in time I actually made money. Had about a quarter million in profits just in WaMu but like you did here, I didn't take any profits and lock in my 'freebies'
It's all about what we learn and I'm not going to let this stock 'take me down' and I don't want to hear that from someone who's been here as long as you.
We are STTucK and we should have known better... You Snizz and I have all been up at one time or another in this stock. So yes we all are 'unhappy campers' but don't you dare let this stock take your belief in yourself. It can take your money, it can lower our beliefs in ourselves, but we will go on...Learn from the experience and turn it into a positive. Or I'll hunt you down. big smile
