That's okay we have all done that a one point of our investing lives. You learn by getting your feet wet. Do DD on your investments. If you really believe in the company never let panic selling scare you. You have to have balls of steel at times.
Hey Lucky. Welcome. Sometimes one has to learn some hard lessons, but that's how you grow....if you don't go broke...lol. Always have an entry point and an exit. Greed will sink you anytime while fear will prevent you from taking those risks that other make killings on.
Best to you with all your trading ventures. May I-HUB prove to be an invaluable resource to you. Many of us out here are always willing to 'share' information.
Word of caution: I also consider 'pinkie-land' to be 'The Pits' as in the Series Spartacus....i.e.- this is the belly of the beast and there is lots of ugly to go around on any given day. Caution is always prudent.
