You are pretty negative to be posting here. I don't think you would be recommending the use of stops with IDCC if you understood what they have. They have ESSENTIAL IPR in every major cellular standard. They can't lose so a stop serves no purpose. Maybe you should either take your negative vibes somewhere else or try not to post about your imaginary downside.

We tried subtle, let try direct. We have mostly longs on this board. Many have held for several years if not longer. Many also believe that Nokia will pay off.

Let's do this.

3 4 5 6 mo down the line we have a small selloff and they get stopped out. Then we have 3 4 5 6 mo down the line Nokia come in. They think selling on the spike would be a good idea. They pay double or more in tax. Short vs long. If's it's a high spike your " Blah, blah, blah" will be little in compensation. I suppose you can tell them about the 2 or 3 dollars they saved by using stops but I don't thing it will help.

BTW you made a mistake in your post about washes.

You mention you have an average price of 4. You have been here for a long long time then. A lot longer than me. I only been here 5 years. Let me give you some advice on trading. Take the profits when it's smart to do so. Holding that long , if you’re the trader you say has cost you far more than what you will make here. You could have rolled your 4 to over 100 plus by now. If you notice your at 17. Just beginning I suppose. Fair enough.
