I've modified my approach on this. I was content to just hold my position, but then I got to thinking, if I intend to hold 1 year for LT gains, why not put in some small orders today that will be huge in a year? So I've started adding 20K and 50K buys that I hope to sell in a year at $1 or more /share. Just for some walking around cash you know! That way I don't have to bleed off my really long term holdings just to raise cash.
Think out 1 year and 3,5,even 20 cent shares look like a bargain!
