  2. Buy and Hold • Do your homework. Plan your way in AND your way OUT! • Never Buy or Sell unless you can explain why! • Make connections between what you learn and what you already know. • The key is not knowing when to buy, but knowing when to sell! Remember, you only make or lose money when you sell. • Use insider trading reports as a guide.
