It's coming along just nice. Now you said "Im in it for the long haul and then you said I better hurry up. You really can't have it both ways.
Bags are made in time and at current pricing your going to be holding for more than a week...the typical investment span most people use today....2 months from now will be a different story and you need to take this view. But I'll ask you and the board what is 2 months.....2 months is a really short time if something dire is going to happen to you or your family and your counting down the days. On the other hand if your expecting something fantastic to happen to you or your family then 2 months seems like forever.....and tha's why you go to your broker and pick up a case or 2 of "RELAX" (at a broker near you....the only medication known to relax those stock market itches to sell too soon).
Patience is your friend in the market...but a lot of people don't know how to find it or use it.
I can't tell you the number of times I sold way too early when I first started trading stocks. The stock would be down and then come up...I was just so happy that it came up I'd sell..big profit's I thought...10 or 20 cents over what I paid for a 2.40 stock...until I looked at the Saturday paper...up 125% over what I sold for a week later selling for $8.00...(kicking self...kicking self...kicking self)..I had lot of self inflicted wounds back then...
