If you have the pattern figured out why not play it? If it's that obvious the HODL pattern may not be the best way. I sold everything except my ERJ calls. They are getting hammered. I also bought TSLA puts and they are up 150% in just the last two days offsetting the ERJ calls. The brutally honest question for me, why did I hold the ERJ calls? Brutally honest answer, I forked up.
