Hello Aiming4,

I have posted here when I bought and when I sold, not an easy thing to do, as obviously, we are all wrong, in my case, often, just not yet in Cortex. It is also much easier to lay back and poke at those who do, something I have learned here. I don't even listen to the TV while investing during the day anymore, as I want to rise above it, it helps clear my head. I will post when I sell some, but likely it will be early or late....

Did I dream that you posted that you sold some when it popped to three+ this year? I remember thinking, I should likely do that, but I really thought they were going higher..., so I lost half my profits by waiting, based on my own judgement of where i thought Cortex was going. Not the first time I have done that, I have never sold at the high, as previously posted.

I completely agree that the hardest part is the selling, in any stock. It is hardest when you have a family member, or yourself, suffering from some disease that you would be more than willing to risk side effects on, if only the FDA would let you. (bs, but for another topic)

I am a numbers kind of guy, in grade school when it came time to cover grammar, I would be thinking math. If you want to have some fun, just take 10,000 dollars and earn a slight pop in a stock, any stock, once a week, for two years. Say, 100 weeks at 5% a pop, per week, 4%, 2%, whatever. Those stocks are out there all the time, in bio they grow on trees, then change that 10,000 to whatever it is a person can start with. That is why I like trading stocks, I don't have to hit home runs, but when I find human behavior patterns like Cortex, while I just can't lay off.

Thanks for running such a great board, I remember how excited I was when I found it......and how much I still appreciate the intelligent postings.
