RE: poor performance"You may not be as aggressive with stock performance as I am and that's find. But don't forget, I was there at 0.85$, when it could have gone to 0.25$. So now , it should be paying up big for that risk, MUCH MUCH more than what we are having here."
You are trading on the big bang theory here. I am not sure if you realize how rare those are. Personally I believe in finding companies that over time will give me a substantial gain in value. Learn all about them so you can be relaxed about owning them - insider open market buying is a must as well. Then I may buy some long but mostly I trade the volatility. On the long side I already took my original investment out on the double (IMO an absolute must). Right now I don't hold a trading position because I missed the last dip. I will buy on the dip that I am expecting to see in the next 3 weeks. Personally my guess is around 1.40 to 1.45. But I tihnk it will also find its way back up in March - April. My prediction is that with the right buying opportunity this may give me yet another double or something close to it. (1.40 to 2.80?) If I can't buy low enough I will stick with my long position and be happy too.
My point? Don't sweat the dips; they likely have nothing to do with what is going on with the company but rather with the mental makeup of the people that invested in it. It is this very same mental makeup that allows you to make money in the market.
