Continuing this I think its important to acknowledge a certain point in time where you leave / exit an entry. I'll use my own personal example of IHL. Users who have been on here long enough knew how hyped the IHL thread was at one point, I think I entered at one point when I first begun trading and although I was ~20% down at one point, I eventually ended up selling at a 70% profit. It also comes down to your risk appetite as well. I held MAY from 10cent and could've exited from 14 cent for a good chunk of profit, but decided to exit after with a fairly large loss after a mediocre ann that has suppressed the sp since. I think in saying that, there are lessons to be learnt from investing/ trading (whichever you do) and acknowledging each trade and the reasoning behind your conviction the stock you're in also important regardless of whether it is a gain or loss
