Changes and current counts:

Acc #2: 401K, Im just going to keep this one as is. Im not going to sell anything off to buy PDI. This one will be straight growth.

Added $10K of MSTY.

At current rates this should give me about $650 each month. Since I wont be getting contributions anymore, I figure it would be nice to produce a lil cash to buy stocks here and there.
Acc #1:

Currently: $15K of PDI. $10K of QQQI

Goal: $15K of PDI and QQI. $5K of MSTY

All goals met.

Acc #3:

Currently: $25.7K of QQQI. $20.9K of PDI. $10.6K of MSTY

Goals: $90K-$110K of PDI and QQI. $15K-$25K of MSTY.

$25.3K of MSTY
$38.4K of QQQI
$24.4K of PDI

Holding a DOCU call.
Might by back into ADM,got shook out earlier. Made about 300$ on a call i had. Sold to cover some losses:francis:
Bought some more LUMN and QS.



Sometimes i just sit around thinking about all the stocks i called in here that made historical runs. I managed to hold zero of them as they flew into the stratosphere off to the sunset:francis:


Only frustrating because the reason i didnt hold. Because my problem was holding stocks for too long. Only for them to come back down and i end up stuck in the red. So this time when bought low,and sold for crumbs. Figuring if i do that enough times ill come out better. Sure that works too,but wouldve loved to just hold stocks that doubled,tripled quadrupled and 10 times'd their price.


But on the bright side i probably needed that. Thats probably how you get the confidence to hold longer. Guess i cant ignore all the stocks i sold for profit that wouldnt have kept going up either

Thinking about selling my AUD/uSD in forex. Made 3K off of it so far. Feel i can at least get to .67. But considering its dangerous,it was my first trade, and i know nothing about currencies i should probably count my blessings. If it mostly works like any other instrument,i dont see a good reason to sell yet.


I think i prefer these currencies to the crypto meme coins i was buying.

Banked hard today.

**Small Cap**
✅ SRM 6.12 → 6.35
✅ SRM 5.86 → 7.15
✅ SRM 6.9 → 7.6
✅ SRM 7.05 → 7.25
✅ SRM 7.05 → 8.2
✅ SRM 8.55 → 8.8
✅ SRM 8.8 → 9.63
✅ SRM 9.6 → 10
✅ SRM 10.4 → 10.77


I feel like I could take the next step and size up even more. But I'm still trading relatively smaller compared to my port size. I just hate losing and going big changes mentality.

Brehs scenario.....69y/o woman still working & plans on working for at least another 2-3 years.

Has 136k to invest. She's narrowed her option down to annuity & actively managed mutual fund (balanced).


The annuity rate being offered currently is 5%......so almost a 40% GAURANTEED gain over 5 years.

:dahell: When I originally did the numbers I thought the banker was saying 5% over the course of the 5 year annuity, when I asked for clarity she again said 5% year over year. Is this a normal thing with annuities?


She was explaining how the mutual fund theoretically (historically) should out perform that buy a lot........but guaranteed 40% sounded like a jwet to me.
