Same with NAIL. Kept playing with it. Still have 600 shares but could've kept it at my $9 buy in price instead of taking the quick gains.

There's others as well. But I've probably lost out on like $100k just by taking profits too early.

Rethinking to just STOP being so eager to profit and it's working out REALLY well for me just over the last month.

I've gained $10k just because NIO, TSLA and PLUG have broken out this week. Before I would've sold pre breakout.

HODL for me.

Stock ADHD is a real thing. I have it too.LOL. My recent failures have come from using a 5% trailing stop loss on my runners and getting taken out just to have to buy back in higher on a stock I want to still be in. PACD went up like 12% then dipped back 6%. Took me out and ended the day higher and then went up another 4% after market.

I have several that are well over 100% gains and they make me nervous. Plug,BLNK,BEEM,TSLA,NIO,SBE have no reason to fail so why use a ****ing Stop loss. If they correct just hang on and they come right back.
