Just an update... I had a trailing stop on ASVI on my first purchase, and got stopped out. Then I bought back in at $20.50. I set another stop this time at $22.00, and it got stopped out again today. Just so happens there were two out of three sell signals. So it was probably a "better safe than sorry" scenario.

Its hard to get over the feeling of "well, what if it goes straight back up again, and when I get back in, I will have lost out on all those gains?" But as a Rule #1 investor, I guess that's what we have to give up, in exchange for a little peace of mind. I still came out with about a 7% gain. I'll be ready to jump back in when the indicators say go!
