Not exactly... I trade for long term and you don't. I have confidence in this company and will add to my position as the stock pulls back in price. If it ever hits my basis I may get out. Not all of my positions I hold long term, but if this one runs in the 6-8 months I may sell and my gain will be long term and my taxes will be far less.
I am guessing your one of those traders that has never lost money on a trade?
