Feel the same way TC. I also see the chart as very bullish with potential for breakout toward that 22-24 range.

You are so not alone in your strategy, concerned approach, craziness...however one wants to see it. That "what if" is a big weight on ones mind when considering how to go about this investment. With all the increased ownership, it leads one to believe there is in fact a light at the end of the tunnel. As "they" say though, let's just hope that bright light is not a train!!

I agree. We all have those issues with all stocks. Can't tell you how many times Ive dumped a stock and then it went up more. Its easier to remember those times then it is to remember the time you dumped a stock and it went down more. We always remember the ones we could have scored bigger on. Personally I dumped my stock last week. I lost some money but I already gained some back by investing elsewhere topped with a decent week in the market. Sometimes you ahve to look and determine if the wait is worth the gain or can you make the same gain elsewhere in teh same time if you sell for a loss.

This is a post that has some very good points.

...what keeps me in the game is the fear of feeling like even more of an idiot if I dump my shares and the company is sold the next day...

It is exactly what keep many here. It has a name, FOMO, 'Fear of Missing Out'. It creates a really challenging situation for all investors, especially for Ariad investors. And IMO, with each passing day, it gets more trying.
