NIO is up 20% for me in a few weeks. I will sell 50% of my position this morning and put the rest of the shares with a stop market loss at Friday's high of $59. This will guarantee me a nice profit and avoid downside risk and capital loss, which I need to make more trades on stocks breaking out.

This book has revamped my thinking on individual stock investing. I recommend it highly.

Long term investing in my 401k and IRAs is a much different story. I simply rebalance 1-2x per year and don't do any of this.
Can't you do something in an audiobook? I haven't read a physical book in a hell of a long time.

SUPER EASY read. I haven’t read a full book in years before this. Took like 4 hours.

It’s so simple how he explains things. I just read it and it’s absolutely changed my perspective on buying individual stocks but maintaining capital with risk management strategies. It’s simple math.

Added full position in AMD in after hours. 97.25

Stopped out today on my final positions in SQ (8% profit) and CRNC (break even).

Sold covered calls on WFC for end of week.

Considering selling my final position in LUV this week. It's been moving sideway for almost 3 months now.

Add CCIV to the watchlist for EV spec play.

I'm beginning to rethink my shit as well.

I bought 1000 shares of plug a couple months ago around $11 and sold at $14. Now only own like 150 shares when I could've have (in theory $30+k in my holdings.

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.

I guess I'm gonna have to open me a WeBull account. Looks like it starts trading at 4AM where Etrade only allows you to start at 6AM.

ZOM and BNGO went way up before I had a chance to grab me some. ZOM ended up 98% yesterday. I got some BNGO a week ago but only 40 shares and I wanted to grab 200 more yesterday.

Bought some Deere (DE). Missed (probably most) of the good run, but with the runup in commodity prices and government dollars, I'm guessing the next couple quarters are going to be decent. The risk is inputs (China/Covid) are higher crunching margins, but based on the bids I got - they passed it on.

Moreover, I have a landlord in the cornbelt that thinks everything's ****ing gravy, so I'm guessing sales are going to be there. Please note that I fully understand anecdotes aren't acceptable alternatives to due diligence. But I'm still salty about this particular landlord so you get to hear about it.

Plus it's a bit of a (criminally small) hedge for me. If I'd have just kept my last sprayer and bought $400K of Deere stock, I'd be a lot better off. Enough of that.

Anyway, might be worth a look if you're interested.

Whatever's going on with $NAK right now is making me feel good. Up 25% AH after a +10% day.

Apparently they're appealing a shutdown decision. I'm not sure I'd take that bet.
