in retrospect, the thing i've learned the most this year to is to know what's an investment and what's a swing/trade. too many times, i've sold early out of a great/growing company for small/decent profit for what should've been a long term investment (2-5+ years). JMIA is a prime example. I sold a lot of my position when it hit $15 (buy in average was about $5.50) for an almost x 3 gain over span of a couple months. Only to watch it now be flirting w/ $40 and God knows where it'll jump to in the next 5 years. It's probably still a good buy at $40, but I should've loaded the boat at ~ $5 and just been adding/investing for long term gains. not to mention that I only put a couple grand into it instead of strengthening my position to 5 figures over time. on the flip side, i've had times where I've put too much (high 4 figures and even touching 5 figures) into pennies that I held onto much longer than I should've and ended up selling for loss or only getting little profits. ABIO and ADMA prime examples currently. starting to learn to treat these pennies like trades/sluts (get in and get out) and not even indulging them much anymore (and only w/ much lower/less risky sums) while treating good/growth companies like investments/wives and spending alot more time putting good money and research into these. any profits from pennies or swings and money I add from paychecks are primarily getting added to longs w/ a consolidated portfolio (word to chicken genius). can't wait to see what 2021 looks like.

JMIA and TSLA straight killing my account. :picard:



Side note: I keep managing to double my liquid assets every 3 months. :dwillhuh:

Y'all wouldn't believe this shyt if I showed y'all. I'll send a shout when I reach 100k. It might even be late 2021 at this rate.
JMIA broke out bullish flag today, I think at least $50 is in order. Got a few call options.

COGT - check out the box range over the last 5 months, if it closes above 14.40, it will go up way more.

EXAS - close to breaking out if it closes over 138.

In general today is not a good day to trade since its quad witching expiry

1.) Long-term, what's a good entry price for AirBNB?

2.) What's the future look like for them? I've been a host and a renter in years past, but I do know that in some countries it's not even considered legal, but they operate there anyway (or at least it used to be like that)?

:francis: I told you from Day 1 to leave those pennies alone.:ufdup:

You have too much guaranteed income coming in, to do the grunt work and risky trades, the rest of us have to do build up our accounts.

If I had your income, I'd buy a shytload of tsla, every paycheck and sleep good as fukk at night for the next 10 years.

Glad you're learning though. :salute:

I lost a few thousand, then realized, I needed to correct my behavior, before I made a regular habit of taking L's.

Haven't had any L's in months due to the patience, I've gained over time.

IDK but let it drop. Rule of thumb to investing is not to touch IPO's for a good year or 2.....

Long term they'll be aight. That's all that matters.
