when to sell depends on your level of profit-taking...
some sell at 20%, some at 100%...

also depends on wat is your portfolio...
dividend paying stocks or capital gain stocks...
different reasons for buying that stocks probably means that you will have different levels of profit-taking....

i guess the best time to sell is when u know the market is going to fall..
but that's going to be difficult to gauge...

wah ah lim, can be my god father annot ?
