this was not a HUGE purchase but it still had a little bit of size to it and as it moved up stayed very green thus becoming one of my better longs during this time frame. It was not a $3 stock when I first went long. It was around $9 a share making it easier to go long in bulk. By the end of the run a nice 106% gain in six months and two weeks. Not that bad in a market that was falling 25% on the Nasdaq. That is a 130% gain on the overall market. Not bad at all and a reason to never give up on the longs even in a long bear.
