I know most of what Orphy is talking about, but I don't really believe in using Stop Loss (really bad things can happen)... I'm more in these stocks for long than short.
And yes, I have been buying some more of the same stocks when they get lower, to average it out... but to be absolutely realistic, VMW and NED are good companies that are sure to bounce back up in the future (provided overall market remains stable... i.e. we don't go into what orphy describes)... and since I haven't sold anything off yet (other than YHOO, which I lost $220 on), I haven't actually "lost" anything yet.
I have also been holding WCG this week... check it out:

It's really a bit of a gamble though, so didn't put much into it.
