Over the years of investing in Poet I've seen the ups and downs with all of the emotions involved.

Why is this time different?

Why is the stock price sustaining?

What will the future bring in the next year? Next 5 years?

The best answer to these question is an individual answer that you yourself developed based on your own findings. It's not from some article you found on SeekingAlpha, Yahoo Finance or the Agoracom board but it's the conclusions you draw from it.

Over the years I've been an avid reader of this forum, I've seen all of the emotions that stem from the wonderful findings we've been privy too. However, with these findings come the emotions. We've all seen it and we've all been there. 

So my questions to all long time shareholders:

What is your investment plan for POET? Did you change your plan since your first purchase?

What caused you to change your initial investment plan?

Did your emotions have ANY impact on your decision making?

I am asking this because we are getting more eyes on POET. As we access platforms like Stocktwits  those viewers will come with many opinions, many extreme opinions. I believe many people (mostly retail shareholders) use boards like stocktwits to justify their positions. If the share price goes down, people go to these boards and look for reasons to add, sell hold. But why? Their stock is down, or up, it doesn't matter. 

 I need to go to these boards to find more like minded people like me. I need to hear that there are more hopeful people out there like me that are long. And I want to hear their reasons for staying long or adding. 

At the end of the day it boils down to your emotions. Stocktwits is great for DD and the social aspect. However, spend a min reading the posts on stocktwits for any ticker. There are extreme bulls and bears. Okay now try to decide on long or short based only on the posts. Does this sound like a stupid idea? Okay let me ask you one more time:

What is your investment plan for POET?

I don't want you to actually give me an answer, but I'm asking for you to answer to yourself. If you can't tell me what your plan is (entry price, target price, stop loss, timeframe, etc), you need to check your emotions at the door.
