For me, it's the stress of knowing if I'll make a reasonable profit. I'm trying to manifest positive thoughts but I can't help but think the universe doesn't want me to win big.

if you’re being serious, it’s not the universe...it’s your decisions and perhaps inexperience...and I don’t want to come off like I’m talking down on you bcuz I’ve made those mistakes before and am STILL susceptible to them at times when I get greedy but at least now if/when I do get greedy and fukk up the bag then I know where the blame lies (myself)...when I first started tho I was blaming everyone from those in the trading group, to the market, to the government and yes even the “universe” until I realized the reason why the trades I made early on would always shyt the bed, and it’s bcuz after getting lucky the first time around I mistook that luck for “knowledge” and felt I could throw money at any run and quickly come out ahead

F it if GME goes down to 40/30 again I'm buying.

Oh definitely. I'm glad I bought in the 40s.

I bought at 300 like an absolute idiot. Then at 140 thinking it'll go back up to at least balance out, then it tanked more below a hundred. :sadcam:

Then more at 40 and 50 during the hearing.
shyt stayed red as I kept depositing more money. :wow:

Sigh, I'm staying in.

It's not so much the loss that bothers me. I can handle the loss balanced out by other stocks.

For me, it's the stress of knowing if I'll make a reasonable profit. I'm trying to manifest positive thoughts but I can't help but think the universe doesn't want me to win big.
That last sentence, I go through the same, that's just the anxiety talking though.
I'm looking at these YouTube millionaires :hhh:

Please let that be me, I'll actually do right by that money.

Ended up breaking even for the week. Up 10% only to fall 30% half an hour later and be where I started . :francis: At least I'm not down overall.

That said there's a lot of loss porn over on WSB that makes me feel better about myself. One dude is down $125k today after shorting GME and about to get margin called. RIP

Another dude was down 99.7% on an option for PTLR lost 5k
