Hold the trim thumb switch while releasing the yoke pressure; when the stab starts moving hold the yoke still watching for correct stab movement. It’s NOT porpoising, it’s merely unloading the pressure the elevators are putting pitch trim actuator.

I learned it 40+ years ago reading Handling The Big Jets by D.P. Davies. BAcked up by an old timer on the 727 at EAL.
