Oh yea, that one (USPX) too. And FPPL, JPHC. I don't want to give them all out so people see what an idiot I've been. dk said he was the 2nd biggest idiot on here and I don't want to prove him wrong showing all my picks!!!

I've got USXP and so do a lot of others (that may not want to admit that). But my past experience says I'll get out with at least a small gain. I only need .016 to break even.

Well, I'm currently red in every stock I hold except 4 of them! I have too many bad decisions to list here, so I'll just give you my bottom 5. My actual list reads like a who's who of Pump n' Dump/scams. But I AM trying to learn now.

Jo.. that is BRUTAL... go to investopedia and look up RSI, and when not to buy......i feel for you.
HVYW.. for me, rookie mistake buy. i normally dont hold anything past a 18% loss now. but i hold hvyw at a 60% loss b/c its a 60 yr old comp. that makes bank.. just a little slow with pr's, and not to investor saavy

Sorry Jo. I think FPPL will go up at least a little from where it is. I don't think I'll ever see my initial investment, but I am hope for a little increrase so I can get out. I got in that thing the same day I got into IPRE and have kicked myself for not putting it all in IPRE. A million extra shares in IPRE would be looking great right now.

QBID lost over 25 grand, MLON lost over 4 grand, CMKX lost 1 grand, NOW on the flip side USXP made over 7 grand, PTSH made over 5 grand, RSHN made over 30 grand, So it does even out.

ICMH was a big bag and then I let it go for a 50+% loss. SFDE was at 48% loss yesterday but now its only 40%. This one is going to turn into at 400% gainer!

Yep...we all have skeletons in the closet. No pain...no gain.

as a newbie I don't post often, but I also have too many in the red. XLPI SEVI PMED KSWJ Pretty expensive lessons, but then again I am just learning. Glad to see this thread, I thought I was the only one who held too long.

Hoping that some good PRs will help regain some of the loss so I can sell and move on. I'm new at this as if you couldn't tell. LOL

whoever said that they were never the bagholder while being a penny investor is FOS IMO. 99.9% of us have gotten killed on stocks before, but many of us fought thru it and kept trading for profits. Superman even admitted to losing everything at first including his girlfriend, he's been doing this 10 yrs. thats why people that have been here for a while posting regularly, probably know what they are talking about... but always DD your stocks beforehand and look at filings when possible. and newbies, slap your hand from that return button chasing a stock at 90 rsi.... sometimes i have to do it to myself too. hah.

This really bites seeing all of you folks holding bags, all i can say is becareful. if you chose your own plays you know what you are getting into and when to get out!! DD anyone elses plays!!! VERY VERY INTENSE DD!! Good luck in recovering. Ask the stronger traders for advice or just ask questions!!!
