The simple fact is that if you had bothered to place a satisfactory stop loss at time of purchase, you wouldn't be in such a situation.

You are another of a long line of people who come in after reading a few Twitter posts thinking that the "sure thing" will happen as soon as you invest (gamble?) your money. You are then at a loss (both literally and figuratively) and bewildered why this predicament has happened to you. You wonder who conspired against your sure thing.

Use this as a lesson in real life to counter the dumb luck you have had in the past with your dart throwing technique that you believe is research and investment.

VRC is a spec stock that is slowly but surely shoring up its position. You failed to either see that or acknowledge that. Your posts and the posts of your ilk are scattered through these pages. Start off full of bluster and bravado because your dart landed on VRC. You then drop in cash with no back out strategy and if there is a drop, you swing between optimism and pessimism whilst still having no strategy for exit.

Now is the blame phase. You are still stuck and can't reconcile that the sunk costs you have taken are just that. So you won't sell for that reason. You don't have the patience to wait it out so you decide to start telling all who will listen at every opportunity that you have been cheated and the company is wrong.

Yet, you never consider that you misread at the beginning that this is a spec stock and not a sure thing. You either ignored or didn't bother to look at the trading history of not just this spec stock but of many, many others before dropping cash in it. You never had a contingency plan to get out.

You can reply with obscenities and you can attempt to have this post blocked. But it will never change the situation that you created and now find yourself in. VRC is in better shape than it was 12 months ago. VRC is not to blame here.
