I really don't know why you are making that point to me since I never said anything about not selling.
I assume you didn't even read my posts. Your point has nothing to do with my comments.

Now as far as your "point", those who sell and never buy back on pull-backs are just another version of those who never sell.
The way to play it is to buy and sell and buy and sell etc. There's no reason to sell and then never buy that stock back. That's just silly...
How many shares did you say you have? Just over a thousand? That amount and your stategy of selling a portion and not "looking back" tell me that you are not a big player nor a trader.

Here's a definition from Wiki for you and maybe you'll get a clue:

A straw man argument is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position.[1] To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by substituting a superficially similar proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.
