Patty, some advice that maybe can help. My worst losses came from Koop way back when, Npls, and bnbn. Inexperience caused me to put too many eggs in one basket on Koop at, get this, 30 per share. Road it to 45, bought back at 36, thinking it had a future. I finaly cut my losses at 26. Having been heavy into margin, it took nearly half my money. I am glad though that I took my losses and ran in hind sight, for the company has no future in my opinion. Npls and Bnbn are a little different though. Npls was a rapidly growing company that tanked from where I bought at 19, all the way to 10. Heavy in the margin again with too eggs as well in the same basket, it nearly destroyed me. However, the company was solid with no justifiable reason to be at that level. So I continued to trade them at that level-the beginning of the efnt days. The trading range on npls with a little help from efnt got the money back. Likewise with bnbn, solid company with a good future. Bnbn cost me, for I refused to sell a solid company. The solid ones give it back eventualy as Efnt did for you. I have been very actively trading bnbn the last couple of weeks. I sold half the position I have on every pop up as it trends upward finaly. I looked at SCOC, and it is a Koop situation I feel, meaning take the losses and run. I am so sorry, you will make it back and be stronger than before.
