It's interesting to me to see many of you making mistakes that I used to make before I made the decision to learn how to trade better. Contrary to popular belief, you don't just buy a stock that sounds good and then wake up one morning with a lot of money in your trading account. I once thought like that and EVERY single time that ever happened to me, if I did nothing and did not immediately and objectively study the technical indicators to determine if my position still made sense to hold on to, eventually I sat and watched that profit disappear. It made me mad that I didn't know what to do in the beginning so I learned what to do. Then it made me mad that I knew what to do and was not doing it. Today, I never get mad! I just take a position and then I watch that position and the market always tells me with a key reversal day or a double top or a rising wedge, or a diamond formation, or a head and shoulders formation or a divergent sell signal that it's time to take profits. So, I take profits and now I know how great that feels! I'm telling you that you do not have to ever worry about you position in a stock if you will only take the time to learn what to do given the current market situation. So, ask yourself this question. Am I now trading stocks as successfully as I want to be trading? If your answer is yes, then you don't need to read my posts or anyone else's posts, you already know what to do and you are doing it. If your answer is no, then I'm wondering how long it's going to be before you take steps to learn every thing you can about how to trade stocks successfully. IF you are already doing that, that's great! If not, why not? So, there's my motivation. A lot of people helped me learn to trade better once I made up my mind to lean. Perhaps I need to give back now to those who are coming along after me making the very same mistakes I used to make. There is a Buddhist saying that when a student is ready a teacher will appear. So, your job is really to prepare yourself first and your opportunity shall come. That's the way the world works.
