It can be hard to sell at the right moment. That's the trap. To take your profits you have to sell and when your stock starts going down, one can hang on too long.

I used to play with penny stocks and had 2k go up to 11k only to watch in disbelief as my account slowly dwindled. Finally there was something called "the dead cat bounce." And then it was all over, all gone but my tears.

In the present, I have my pot stocks to tend. Not plants, stocks.
