When to sell is always difficult. It's nice to take a profit and hard to admit that we were wrong, but I take the view the you should always ride your winners. I have made plenty of mistakes, some of them quite large, but my winners keep me ahead by a good margin.
You need to do your own research (as opposed to just following tip-sheets) so that you understand why you are buying and the reasons for growth, regularly re-visit your reasons for buying to make sure that the sources of growth are still applicable going forward (or maybe different areas of growth are being nurtured). The share price is driven by growth (or expectations of growth).
Looking back I started buying AMS (which I still hold) at sub-15p in Dec 2006 when they were just starting to go into profitability. They went from 15p to 35p in two years and 90p plus in five years ... And they make bandages and medical dressings ... At the time, the reason for buying into AMS was they were just about to break into the US market with their version of a medical superglue.
So the possibilities here ...
Hopefully I am not teaching you to suck eggs, just trying to provide some words of encouragement. If you keep at it, eventually it will all make sense. It took me a loooooong time before it started to make sense.
