Well if you would guess. Would you say it is going up more tomorrow or just going to crap out?

Why? Gapper tomorrow. This usually runs for days. Why not watch it rise, and sell end of the week, or early next week?

Sorry I like the risk but also since my account is small I like to cut out sooner.

Awesome, enjoy your profit. I have my sell point in the 30s for half my shares.

Never apologize for profit. You stuck to your plan, I hope. Any profit is good profit. Just a side note, when it runs and closes at the HOD, it is usually a gapper for the next day.

So when all of you guys and girls started, how much did you start your account with and when did you start? I am just out of college and started with a pathetic 500.

$500 also, January this year. But I paper traded for about 6 month prior to playing with real money, so I could develope a system that worked for me.

See my paper trading was in college when we had this stock market game. I currently still hold the record for return. 16,000.00 percent gain in 3 months.

You should do fine then. I personally love the morning gappers. This one will do well for a few days.

Hey it is never a mistake to take a profit!! If anyone gives you a hard time about it ignore them! The goal is to make money, and if you have made some then you succeeded. It is really easy to look at a stock after the fact and say how much you could have made, it is hard to know when to bail. If you get uncomfortable, sell. There will always be another runner.
