RE:Moving Forward Your slot machine analogy is spot on. FOMO is a common problem in this game. Over on the Canopy Growth (WEED) board you'll find some original longs trying to justify why they haven't sold and repurchased through the years. They've been married to the stock for so long now that they believe it would be cheating the company. It's absolute madness. Yes there's more good things on the horizon for MJ but how will they know when enough is enough? What will be their exit strategy? At what point will they find the courage to break up the relationship? My guess is that it'll be too late.
Yes, you made an error in buying opportunity but I would hold onto to what you have and wait it out. There are better days ahead for MJ no doubt. When they do arrive, look for a prolonged weekly run up in price and use a trendline to help you exit. Use the ETF HMMJ as a guide. GL
