"Like a few people on here I was hoping to cash in ZEN at decent profit and move into PM and Oil stocks,"
I got a bit bored of waiting for Zen so I sold a few and bought some gold interests and did a nice return today. I still have Zen so if and when it goes I'm still in. There is a nice sense of self-actuation when you let go of the "what ifs" and deal with the "what is". Some weeks back I watched as the gold stocks took off and I couldn't believe the day after day ascents. So, I watched for a dip and moved on it. Being that it's generally a cardinal rule to not be all in, it wasn't a hard move to make, knowing it was the right one regardless of whether I initially lost or gained. Given the severity of the dip it was also an easy move to make knowing that there would likely be a bounce. Perspective and action needs to remain fresh as it's easy to get stuck in a mindset which can wipe you out at the worst or leave you feeling helpless and inactive at the least. As it turns out, much to our chagrin, ZEN continued to go down today. Now I'm in a position to buy more. We'll see what happens.
