Unfortunately, there's a difference between being positive, and making money. Sure, eventually, ARSC will make money, but until a bonafide uptrend begins, how long will the downtrend continue? In some cases, it gets downright ugly.

In large part, there is a science to charts/trends, and understanding them can be most profitable.

Case in point: IPRE

I recently bought when I thought it had bottomed at .0016. Noop! By .0008, I gave up. My mistake. Though the downtrend continued, it also reversed and flew right past even my original entry. Granted it fell 66% from my original entry, but I should have bought more, at those lower levels, than to bail. I bailed more than anything because I suspected the present ongoing dilution was signs of a future r/s, which I had no desire to be part of. Not that it might not still happen, but it didn't happen in the timeframe I could have held and turned quite profitable from.

Since I do not see ANY likelihood of an r/s in the near term, to avg. down would be my only suggestion, but mind you, this is only MHO.

Blindinvestoor, let's hope that is the case here. To leave backers of start-up companies to be victims of unfulfilled expectations for too long can be the road of no return, even if you have the goods. I have done that myself with a company I started way back. If I had communicated well in earlier stages, things would have been much, much better. When I had to go back to the well to expand the company, I had problems. I ended up selling a great idea to another group because my gang lost confidence in me. Take care.
