Yes, it's always nice to think you bought the hot stock, but this is exactly the wrong type of chart to purchase for any stock you want. Never buy at new/all-time highs. It just doesn't end well. How quickly people forget this stock rocketed up to 705 last year only to crater back down to 385. Never chase, never join the herd mentality.
Try to remember these general guidelines -
Be buying when others are selling and sell when others are buying. If you've been holding Apple - this is a great time to sell and take profits. If you've missed this run - wait for the inevitable pull-back. No stock goes straight to the sky as Apple appears to be doing at present. There *will* be a sell-off that will give you a chance to buy the stock. I'll use Google as an example -
I waited a long time to get a good price in Google - over 9 months. However - the stock finally sold off and I got a nice piece at a MUCH lower price.
Message of the day - set your list - wait for good pricing - and then attack - like a sale at a supermarket.
