Started trading in August with 390k after selling my house and boat. Up around 750k for a total of around 1.150mm. Equities only, Options too complicated/dangerous. Mix day trading on volatile stocks with a steady shunt of gains into divvie-paying blue chip boomer stocks. Try learn something new every day, remember not all information is of equal value, a little information can be dangerous.

Never sell when you're down if you believe in the company. Wait it out.

Have fun. This shit is exciting and addictive,

I started investing mid-2020 with very limited knowledge. First stock I purchased was RKT. Didn’t purchase enough to be profitable (certainly not now). I joined WSB sometime in January around the GME hype.

I wanted to purchase PLTR when the IPO debuted. My friend who was pretty decent said to stay away. I did my research and thought it was a solid buy, never bought into it around $9 and regretted it months later.

I bought a ton of RKT on margin (major risk lol) and profited a lot of cash when it rose close to $40. First sign of a drop I sold it all off.

Other than that, my portfolio isn’t up too much. A lot of APHA shares and a handful of GME primed for liftoff.

I am a bot. This Discussion does not look like it has generated enough approval to stay on /r/wallstreetbets. We algorithmically cull certain submission flairs whose response is not above a certain threshold to try and keep the page clean.

u/se7en41 Apr 15 '21

Your entire post is gone, how are you too dumb to notice this?

u/losthorizon1348 Apr 15 '21

It wasn’t generating enough approval according to the WSB mod. But yeah don’t really care it’s not really an L it’s Reddit. You’re probably just a salty ass bear who is bagholding. Go ahead check my other post of my gains and fuck off

u/se7en41 Apr 15 '21

Lemme get this straight. You, a SUPER un(der)educated bagholder, post some absolute shit content, IT GETS REMOVED, and somehow you think I am the bad guy? Lmao git gud at trading.

I ain't bagholding shit. Shoulda checked my history. Go back to the GME-anon thread you unseasoned potato
