- WH the great·2025-09-26TOPBuying SMCI felt like adopting a “super micro” pet that I thought would grow into a lion… but it turned out to be a sleepy kitten that eats my money and naps on my portfolio instead. Life goes on and I am happy I cut loss and able to sleep well [Happy]2Report
- TLim·2025-09-26TOPStock market has a wicked sense of humour. Once cut loss, it will turn back up. After buying, it will retrace.2Report
- LazyCat Invests·2025-09-26TOP去年9月FOMO赶上SREITs反弹。当刀掉下来的时候，我以为船回来让我装更多的东西...唉，它带着劫掠的海盗回来了，我接住了掉落的刀。在被捆起来喂鲨鱼之后，我以一个更新的头脑重生，当土匪恐惧达到解放日的高度时，我被装载到新的位置上。现在我持有极端红色和绿色的对比位置。2Report
- highhand·2025-09-26TOPdon't leverage too much during rally especially at all time highs... once pullback... you will panic. leverage when you reach the bottom of a pullback, during a bull run. how to know that? that's the million dollar questionLikeReport

- Peter Soon·2025-09-28TOP我很后悔没有获利了结 $Sprouts Farmers Market Inc(SFM)$ 高点为178，更糟糕的是，当跌破150时，没有止损。现在它是我投资组合中最差的股票。只是希望它不会进一步下跌并尽快反弹。LikeReport
- Deadpoolryan·2025-09-28TOPWhen I don’t sell call, the price won’t move. Once I sell call, it shot up limiting all the winning that I could have gotten. These are incident the market likes to do to us. Ensure all spread are covered so it doesn’t wiped out your portfolio.LikeReport
- AlantinoK·2025-09-28TOPWhat I had experience is that when I trade to buy low sell high, you will miss out sudden rise of the stock due to news on deals that we are unaware off. For counter like. Nebius, I was holding for long term and when they announced the MS deal of 17B , my stock went up 40% and my fortune shoot up ! I think a hybrid model to trade on small cap stocks and to hold on big cap stocks may be a better options.LikeReport

- MHh·2025-09-27TOPI bought ARK when it was going high hoping that it would go higher and higher but the drawdown later was a painful one that also took quite a while to climb back even when the other stocks raced ahead. @Kaixiang @HelenJanet @Universe宇宙 @Success88 @DiAngel @SR050321 @SPOT_ON @Wayneqq @LuckyPiggie @Fenger1188 come join1Report

- ECLC·2025-09-27TOP花了很多时间和精力寻找要购买的股票，等了太久才以“理想”的价格购买，错过了大反弹。吸取的教训是，不要等太久才购买目标，然后需要再次重复搜索过程。1Report
- WanEH·2025-09-26TOP当年年轻时，和公司两个同事连续两次all in+杠杆分别买入一家公司。第一次成功了非常开心，每天股市上下一个价位都是上万的波动，走路都有风。第二次资金更大更有信心，结果最后业绩出来股价滑落。最后没法止损离场。从此不敢再全部押一只股票 @Tiramisu2020LikeReport

- Shop·2025-10-02TOPI thought I was being clever hunting for bargains. Saw a stock down 50% and told myself, “This is like buying Louis Vuitton at half-price!” I loaded up. Two weeks later, it was down another 40%. That’s when I realized I wasn’t buying luxury goods on sale; I was buying milk that was already expired.LikeReport
- Frisbee·2025-10-02TOPOnce, my stock was up 15%. I panicked, sold immediately, and patted myself on the back for being “disciplined.” The next day it went up 40%. The week after, it doubled. I basically donated my shares to someone with stronger hands and better Wi-Fi.LikeReport
