Re: Correction

<sigh>

So I practiced on Investopedia for about four months, read and contributed to this board and then started investing with real money in January.

So I was in about eight Rule 1 stocks and now I am in only one. Trying to think long term I had set my stops around the 30 day moving average - well they all hit either last week or this. Yes, I lost some money, obviously not as much as if I had not set the stops, but it is going to make me rethink my strategy.

I'm still learning, now the painful way.

(ps - the only stock which has not plunged yet is KCI)
