Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

I considered selling a big chunk of mine last night with the thought that it would go down.

I had to bring my client up to date which took most of the night.

Then I realized I am not ready to deal with the tax consequences of turning bitcoins into government money.

I will just continue to hold and spend.

I sold about 60% of my BTC last week when it started to dip as I wanted to recover my initial investment so what remained was pure profit.

Now the price is a lot higher and I really wished I'd held longer, but still I am sat on roughly 25BTC and that is all profit so I am relatively happy still Smiley I do kinda wish I hadn't sold so many last year though, but thats life eh?
You have over a millionth of the total possible bitcoins there will ever be.
Rich man you are.

I feel nervous for you. Like watching somebody else walk to the edge of a precipice. Good luck. Do you have a parachute (Stop) in place?

My strategy is simple. I calculated how much money I need for the lifestyle I want , then just calculated the price level needed for it, then just hold until then.

In my case the price is then 5000 USD per bitcoin.

Well I don't like the charts right now so I've closed the margin positions for a 50% profit and consolidated the profits (and principal) all into organic BTC. I will take new margin positions during a correction.
