im really glad you mentioned that Nape, you know- i originally did have a lower stop around 25.59 but i raised it to my entry price of 25.73 after i saw the price spike up pretty quick and like you mentioned it ended up costing me potential profits... i have to figure out which is the proper thing to do with the stop, i only raised it because i feel really stupid not only giving back gains on a correctly picked stock but feel stupider if it goes red and i loose money on it instead of taking quick profits when i should have... Kunal if you read this please chime in too, I need to figure out systematically what to do with my stop situation in this scenario of a quick popper...
