RE: Pulverizer I gave up on cutting my losses early. It cost me more than hanging on and ignoring the noise. I used to trade according to technicals. It would bounce me out of a stock based on a bearish indicator, only to watch it zoom right back up. I've hold onto stocks before that drop 60% and then 6 months later I'm up 80%. I don't have enough $$ to keep "cutting my losses early" as there seem to be more losses than gains.
No I do not have access to high frequency or shorts so all I can do is long.
