You *do* realize that folks like you and TripleCrown are exactly who bear raids like this are designed to strip of their shares, right? They're literally stealing from you.....guess that comes with the territory for traders though.....need to cut your losses to stay in the game when the trade turns upside down.

Just curious - I assume you guys assign a certain % loss as a mental stop loss and get out when it hits? If so, do you use the same number for taking profits? No, that wouldn't work....you'd have a net loss from trading fees if you did that...profit taking % up number has to be 5-10% higher than stop loss % down number to make any money.....what's a typical "I made my profits, I'm out" number you use?
