Usually, that kept me from pulling the trigger, and consequently, I've had regrets.
Two or three cents on a 10K-share trade equals a mere $200 or $300 difference. From now on I stick to my planned strategy, and today rather than even thinking of moving off of my $3.05 sell order, I'm holding pat.......... And then I put those proceeds up on the "buy" side at 2.89 (where I see that gap from this morning), hope for the gap to fill, and when it does, I accumulate an additional 553 shares (over and above the original 10,000 that I sold)...........I think that's the same game played by Denco and many others sitting here on this board.
