I owned 4700 shares of PBYI and I had certained kind of spirit stirred up in my heart to let me know it is going down to $58 range on Friday and told me to sell on Monday.
I was panicking because if goes down 58, my paper loss is over 10,000. Friday paper loss is close to 8,000.
Saturday Harry told me sell 1/2 when below 58.5, and another 1/2 @55, he believes it is a 75 stock.

I feel it is safe to keep it as is on Saturday. Then I was panic thinking to sell on Monday in 4 groups. But Earnie who is a member of the tech trader said wait till market open to decide.
So when Monday market open and stock went higher, I sold 2700 made 1000+ which made feel less pressure, also bought 250 shares more since price low at 58.96.
Then started worrying why I didn't sell everything, I had feelings to leave them and wait for higher prices and less loss.
Then the next day on Tuesday around 8 AM the news came, FDA accepted application of PBYI. The stock jumped $9 during the day, so I sold all and made close to $10,000 in one day. I could made more if sold fast enough.
This is an amazing experience. I don't know how many kind of sprits can get into my heart. If I sold on Friday, or sold all on Monday then I missed entire gain.
I should have waited till it really get to the stop point before panic selling 1/2 plus. It was pretty close. It was 58.95 at the end of day on Monday.
One news arrived on time saved me from loss big, and turned into the highest realized gain in one day
