Q: Could I get an opinion on "Timing the Market" vs "Protecting my Capital"? If I use my RRX position as an example, I have a good company but with big oil industry head winds. I am in at about $9 on the stock (2.5% position at the time so less now). There were a number of "new 52 week lows" where technically I "should" have sold but I held onto the "quality" company.
Basically, whats a good strategy to prevent large losses in these type of situations when they come along----trade technically, or use a stop loss strategy, or other? No single stock more than %3-%5 of my portfolio is helping in this RRX example.
