I have a dollar amount at which I am prepared to pull out of the market. So far this year, I have come within a dollar of that level twice.

In the vast majority of cases, anyone who isn't an active trader should not be looking at specific dollar amounts to "pull out of the market."

If you need the money that badly right now, you shouldn't be in the market in the first place.

Timing the market is sooo difficult. Problem with selling is that you usually miss the opportunity to get back in. Generally you just need to leave it and suck it up buttercup.
