Got in at $6,000. Congratulations. You are more brave than I. If having lost $20k in the dot.com bust; some free advice. You have more than doubled your money on something that has zero physical value. It’s just some bits on a hard drive, like Buy.com.

Today you have more than tripled your investment. No shame on taking the profit and running. Greedy folk, like me, get stuck with zero. Best to take the profit and brag the rest of your life, than lament the new(er) car you lost.

I traded mini Russell futures for years in a private Mirc room. Our saying was......damn! I coulda bought a Bentley! Lol. But then we’d move on to the next trade.
