Anyone who rags on you for making a 5% profit is crazy. I made a similar mistake with RENT. Sold after I made a 20% profit but missed the other 30%.

So what did we learn?

Scale out of a stock. Sell in increments. As the stock goes up we take off profits and leave on the original investment. We sell all of it when we don't see ANYMORE upside.

Don't feel bad to buy back this stock at a higer price. It is all about where the stock is headed, forget about the "woulda coulda shoulda" profits if you stayed in at $10

This stock is a buy. PEG < 1. Will prosper from stimulus projects. Only 1 of 2 bidders on major projects in Texas. (little competition). This stock is under the radar. It just won a project in Hawaii and stock goes down. Great buying opportunity. Conference call and profit reports will give this stock a jolt upwards.
