i am so pissed. i lost 90k on that motherfucker last year.
Damn... That sucks.

I think a lot of times, we'll take a position expecting a stock to move. But when it doesn't, we tend to get nervous (I know I did anyway). But if the company makes sense, we have to have patience. Unfortunately, it may take a year or two to manifest.

I have a long position in the stock IDEX. I was nervous because it was in the losing column for a minute. But, I've felt that their business model made sense. Now, it looks like it's getting ready to go. When it does, I'm going to look like a genius. But, people won't know about my apprehension in the past with this stock.

I'm talking long-term holds, here... Not trading.

Thank you, I didn't see that vid, but I knew that they bought 100% of WAVE.

I'm hoping that the management team will guide that company properly. Because if they do... It's going to rain money on those invested in it.

At least you know what it was. I watched a stock run up 30%. I was excited as Hell too. Then it started dropping. I jumped out of it, and realized a 25% gain. This was a swing trade. It dropped all the way down to +1%... I would have been sick if I didn't jump out when I did.

I'm trying to be unemotional when it comes to trading. I can't say that I'm there yet, but I getting there.

what kind of crash?

tesla is considered over valued
It has done nothing to support its stock price
Apart from the cult of musk attracting millions of fan boys

it’s crash could be similar to yahoo in the 90s and the real estate companies in 08. Their rise is similar and their fall could be the same

But honestly the markets no longer make sense
As long as the feds continue to flood us with cash
It will continue to rise

it’s once the fed stops pumping the market
But then again when that happens it’s not just Tesla that’s screwed. It’s all of us

I do feel sorry for those that are getting in now though

Why it took me so long to get in. Always thought it was going to come crumbling down. But I still believe it will happen. Just hope to make a little before it does. If it crashes, we will have a bigger problem than just a sunk stock market.

Yup. I haven't been in it long enough to see a massive fall from glory like that, but keep it in mind. Profiting on run ups, when to take profits (even in my long term portfolios, and roll it into something else), and properly evaluating companies for long term investing.

Like someone else said a few days back, its good to find a way to take at least some of your profits and transfer into a broad market or sector index fund just to spread your risk.

last year i got in around 750 and sold like 800, i said to myself this shit gotta pop. that shit keep running and got back in again around 1500. i said to myself that was foolish move. soon as i got in it dropped but i held on. then tesla went on to do a split. nothing the market is doing now makes sense lol. High unemployment and pandemic going on and we seeing some record numbers in the stock market.[/QUOTE]

I only have 4 shares(at the split) and I'm almost $1500 up... should have bought more, but I was skerd....

Have a little more than that but most bought after split.. sadly. Was to scared for years to buy just like bitcoin. Always let the train leave the station without me and then struggle to jump on later.

Yea, for me it was too much to throw at something I didn't comfortably understand... but since Covid I've been dipping and researching. Chris Sain is dropping NUGGETS on the game out here... and I've been all in with him since around Sep/Oct., up about 40% over that time. trying to ride up to $100K.

that's why i am using my profits to either pay off mortgages, student loans, buy real estate, etc, in other words tangible shit. cos this is all for now just paper money/digital money. a building on the other hand can't disappear into thin air. the wealthy know this too, that's why they're getting into the alternative currencies like bitcoin
