That's fine, but then I think you are in the wrong thread.
Very true. Sorry for the interruption, carry on.

Yeah, that is a problem. Last fall I liquidated TSLA because I believed $33 was a local high. It did not stopped there, and for quite a long time shares were way above $35... I was patione(excuse my spelling, English etc - ESL and I don't remember how to spell that) and lucky enough to wait, dip had come and I got my position back at 32.85!Even if you sell close to the top of a cyclical swing, then the question becomes when to buy back in. If you sell at $38 and it goes down to $34, do you hold out for $33, and if you do, will you miss out on a 10% run-up like happened this week. Then once the run-up happens, do you sit on your hands and hope for it to go back down to $36?
I don't do much short-term trading, but I'll brag on myself for this call. I sold half my position at $39.40 on Feb. 7 and bought back at $33.81 on the 27th. I kept my cash invested about the same, picking up 20% more shares. Complete luck to have had a standing a buy order at the absolute bottom of the intraday trading range.Before last Q4' 12 announcement I liquidated it again at around 38. Should I have waited till last day and get 39??? Price dropped, and remembering Autumn experience I as planned bought back 2 days later, at $36. Good? Excellent!!! But NigelM from around here, with way more experience then me, probably sold at $39 and was still waiting for buyback before price dropped till $34...

If I did the same within a 12-month period, I'd have to pay as much taxes as the gain, so I could buy back only as many shares. Still, I'd have to pay less taxes later on, but I'd have to start at the beginning of a new 12-month term. So not sure if that would get me much. I'd have to be lucky.
I have my TSLA holdings in my IRA. Regardless, I had held the shares I sold for more than 12 months.If I did the same within a 12-month period, I'd have to pay as much taxes as the gain, so I could buy back only as many shares.

this recent stock price rise has been a little surprising (in magnitude anyway); looks like at least some of it was induced by some short covering;
Anybody find what happened at Aagronne?
