Come on now,

what stock had emotional trading when they didn't have message boards.


When I used to see those traders running and screaming on the floor of the NYSE, I knew what emotion was.

Anyways, Murray's post is certainly true, people get emotional about their stock and have illogical reactions.

There should be no emotion.
It's really quite simple.

If you think the stock you are holding is trending down, SELL sell FAST.
Go trade something else and come back to this when it turns the corner.

But coming on a message board and crying about a poor decision to hold while it is going down, is illogical, it doesn't help anything.
