No probs - I had read your post where you wrote, "I just buy the number of units, choose a selling point and ban myself from hitting the sell button until I hit my target."
And that, from what I understand, seems to be the approach that a trader might use - nothing wrong with it - everyone buys and sells according to their plans. Just trying to understand whether you are a trader or LT'er!
I wouldn't think a trader would get themselves into a 20k hole on a stock - unless their position moved very quickly against them.
I am not suggesting that you are 20k down on your 5m parcel it was just that you also wrote, "... Otherwise you go crazy on a bad day when you are 20k in the red."
I have been both on different occasions. I have a trading parcel and did have a LT parcel. All gone now though.
I have always thought that LT' er's rely on fundamentals and buying and selling points are of more interest to traders.
