Ann: Trading Halt, page-75

i just hope whatever happens, that i have the nerve to hold onto DRE, to be honest when i bought it, it was just a flip thing, for a few pips, to get some extra xmas money, but now that ive read and done my research, i think i should hold for the next 1yr at least, i dont know why, but psychologically, its so much HARDER to hold a stock that is going up, than one going down, ill give you an example i bought a stock a few yrs ago, was $1 i held it for 10yrs, all the way to 10c, i know, i should have had stop losses etc... but i didnt i thought it would come good, it never did, yet i held it for 10yrs, but another time i bought a stock at 5c, it ran to 7c a couple of days later i sold out, being happy with myself, a few months later its 20c+, even though at the back of my mind i knew it would keep going up, but it was so hard mentally to BACK MYSELF, for fear of it being a pump and dump, i just hope someone could re wire my brain so i dont sell DRE on any spike, i would hate to sell DRE fro say 5.4c on open, feeling good about myself, than for it to drop back to say 5c, but a month later it announces more great results and it ends up being the next de grey or SIR, i would be kicking myself, how should i prepare myself mentally to be able to hold DRE for at least the next 1-2yrs even if a spike happens and im able to sell at a decent profit, but potentially missing out on a spectacular profit. because we know 100% dre is no pump and dump dont we, we know they have the goods.
