Hi SF Re: Odd Math,
The math on the way down always "Hurts" more than on the way up... Take your $100... Gain 50% = $150... Now lose 50% = $75... Same percentage gain and loss but now you are down 25% from where you started... Plus $75 now needs a 33.33% gain to get you back to even at $100... Makes taking some cash off the table on the way up so important... "Profit from your ideas"
