taking arbitrary profits is not investing, its gambling, taking profits upon analysis is wise investing, that's my point

don't teach how people should play with their money sir. you might not take 20% return on the stocks you play, but he might. different stocks have different play. some people want to enjoy the ride up but don't want to be a part of it when it falls.
your advice is helpful but passing judgement on people's play style is wrong.
