hmm funny i disgaree with like the entire last 2 pages of content on this thread.
I have a relatively small account and trade stocks, i call tops and bottoms, and i dont believe in scaling in/out. if you have enough conviction to go in, then whats the point of only going in 1/3rd a position? and then adding when it drops? what if it never drops to where you would add? you will under perform every time. you should trade strategies where the better you get, the more money you make, not the better you get the less money you make. if you get really good and make great entries and it never goes down enough for you to add more then you will be making less getting better
oh well, i guess we all have our different styles

Are you trying to reasons to keep AAPL? Good luck.
those guys are just post writers. when they trade, they are chicks.
right is right, wrong is wrong. there is no middle ground.
if just a 50k account, all in is the best strategy. there is no sense to do 1/3, I agree. since I climb up from 4k, use this strategy.
of course when your account is at 1m/2m, you need diversify.
you lost the flexibilty, the strength of a small account, but you gained robustness of your account, that is the strength of big account, you can ride a big advaerary out using time
