Another good point. When you first hear of a stock do not buy it watch it. Most beginners will hear of a stock and buy it after it has had a good run. That will be dead money for a while and probably a loss. I agree watch for a good pullback like we saw on SLJB yesterday and hit it hard like we did.
Anyone that has followed this board for any length of time can see that the collective wisdom of this board is what makes it special. Stocks that had support from many here like XKEM, AAGH, BIGN, SLJB and PBLS have all had very nice money making runs. The key on all of them was to sell the spikes or you probably have a loss on even good trading stocks.
