    When things go bad...

    Your poll is confusing to me. For me it depends on the stock and time frame. I lost money on HLYS by holding on but it could have been worse. I bought in Aug around 12 when it fell from above 20. Held it until late Oct when it bounced above 10 and then started to fall again. I dumped it...

    can Blinds trade ?

    I think anyone who wants it bad enough can do just about anything that is reasonable. Easy, ask yourself, is it easy for you now with your sight. I agree with "bearbelly, who said it's not impossible but tough". I would add very, very difficult. I would suggest a seeing partner to work...

    Good advice

    brooklyn_3p3 I may be in the minority here, but I love Jim Cramer's Mad Money. The stuff he says makes sense (most of the time), and he knows what he's talking about. I made several investment ideas off him. Also I like Smart money magazine when they have 12 stocks each year. I got 1 of...
