That's EXACTLY why I throw that into my posts once in awhile! Because I swear - a stock can go up every day for a month - and 5 minutes after you buy in - they take 'er down! Ditto on the sale side. I sold 1000 Apple a week or so ago -- I had a nice (huge) gain in it so didn't particularly care about the very last dollar -- but we all want to get the max -- and it was just kinda floating around 400 --- so I pulled the trigger -- within about two days it was up to $420+ --- and that's 20 GRAND! But.... it never fails so you just have to get over it... and understand it... then it doesn't get your goat.

1:06 PM "Time to sell Apple," declares Thomas Kee of Stock Traders Daily, as it doesn't treat its customers properly. Kee isn't refering to the end users but to carriers like Verizon (VZ) and Sprint (S), whose margins are suffering because of the high cost of the iPhone. These resellers will look for alternatives and eventually find them.
I can understand how easy it is for you to fall victim to a short-sell though.
