Well seeing Frusnak reply with a 25% gain was shocking!  When it comes to my portfolio here, I usually sell between 5% to 10% gains. If I were able to do a trailing stop, it would be much different. For now, i take what i can get!  |

To be clear, for this contest there is no selling out in the middle of the month, you pick your pony and ride it for the entire month. 
But if you're asking in general when to sell, there are a number of posts in the Investing for Beginners forum that talk about ideas for when to sell. |

I can't see anything on the link to jdunn's website... is it that site or my computer?
Internet Japan (IIJI) took quite a tumble today, down 8%. I got to say "house of pain" frequently to geb9696 today.  |

Well, the site shouldn't be on a blacklist I don't even have a mailing list for it. It's still working good for me and it's updating. Maybe your missing a common plugin or something if so, you should at least be able to see everything except maybe the leaderboard and chart, let me know what your actually seeing, and let me trouble-shoot the problem. Probly through PM would be best . Thanks in advance |

Well, if you run a spam site then your site can get put on a host ban list script and people who keep those lists up on their machines automatically get re-routed back to themself thereby keeping themselves safe without even trying. I have mine set up on all my machines on my home network (banning thousands of sites) and I set them up for people who have me work on their computers among many other settings and utilities. The last uptime record I had for my system without a re-boot was 23 days and I work the hella out of it, for Windows thats amazing for me |

Luckly I took the real money out at 10.30. To bad about the month. Grim's prediction looks like it might be coming true sooner instead of later. |

Do you mean my purrdixshun that my pick fo May (SGTL) would trade 30%+ lower than me entry point?  I hope so cause it is perhaps the only one on da list wit a chance to recover from a 30%+ loss! |

| No, I meant about IIJI and how it would make a short run up and then start a downward trend to the around the 52 week low. |
