Without divulging how much you have to invest -- remember that you don't need to buy an entire position all at once... and you don't need to invest 100% of the funds you have all at once. If you have $4,000 ---- try to identify what it is you want to buy - and how many shares total - and then just invest $1,000 and wait - see where we're going - up or down - and put some more to work. Or if you want to own 20 shares of X -- just buy 10 now - and wait and so on.
