"If we see a run-up in any way similar to PTSC, I plan to sell @ 75% and hold the rest just in case we do one day see a more dignified and loftier status."

Good idea, but when is that? If it goes high enough you might be able to sell less at a higher amount....real time is a much trickier proposition. You may be thinking sell in the morning and buy later that day.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing...unfortunately it doesn't apply to real time decisions. I totally agree that when faced with dramatic profits it is prudent to take some off the table so you are playing with the house's money...but there is no way, in real time, to know where the top is.

PTSC peaked at $2.25 as compared to EDIG which peaked first at $3.73, dropped for 9 months then popped to $5, 10, back to $5, up to 12, 17 and then 24.50 before steadily retracting.

Profits taken anywhere during that run up was prudent but positions must be held if you want to be there at the top. It's a tough real time experience and exciting as hell.

When you have the opportunity to load up in the pennies, then exiting anywhere in the dollars is a great call and still allows you to buy or sell later depending on what is transpiring at that next moment in time.

Good luck !
