PERSISTENT is in a fall right now (its record is below), the moment beginners most often sell in a panic. Before a sell like that, the coach pauses you and shows how this stock's own past falls ended, the ones that never recovered included. It also flags buying after a big run-up or putting more than 40% of your portfolio into one stock, and never tells you what to buy or sell.
