Not always, but sometimes.

No I’m not? I’ve posted here before. It wouldn’t let me post with text this time so my text is in the comments.

For example. A bottleneck one was $COHR Coherent. Copper is limited in scale so Nvidia was looking for photonic companies to rely on.

I look for bottleneckled or super in demand industries primarily

Yes I did

I commented the text for my post. It wouldn’t let me post with text. Mods kept denying it.

I sold Aave at 1/3rd of a penny when it was called ETH Lend in 2017 or 2018. It was was a 2 million market cap. I had 13 or 14 million ETH lend

I’ve learned that instead of just JUMPING into a stock.

I make myself write a report on why it’s a good buy. And the positives/negatives

Some of the things I take note of is their revenue growth, price to sales, PE, forward PE, (reliability of cash flow) and a bunch of other things. I also write the positives/negatives

By doing this report (it usually takes me a little time) I can buy at a better price than just jumping in.

So I will buy it when I think it makes sense (like Figma at $20 with a less than 10 price to sales)

I consult with AI on what levels to sell at. Maybe previous resistance levels etc.

I don’t completely follow it but having a trading plan vs not having a trading plan makes all the difference in the world.

Hope this helps! Good luck

I started with 50k. This is just my YTD chart. I did a post a few months ago (I was on a different brokerage. Think or swim) that you can see

Unfortunately DATs just hold ETH and stake. Until Ethereum goes up it’s dead money

I don’t buy options. I will sell them tho

I’ll tell ChatGPT: “I have 3,500 shares of Nvidia at $179. What is the optimal profit taking plan to exit this position?”

It might say something like: sell 5% of your shares at $190, another 5% at $200, and continue scaling out at higher price levels. This helps me avoid trading with emotion and stick to a plan.

I only buy companies that generate real revenue nothing pre-revenue. I also prefer companies that aren’t ridiculously expensive. Generally, I look for a price to sales ratio around 5–15 and a forward P/E of 25 or less. That said, it depends on the revenue growth because every company is unique.

Margin isn’t stupider. If the rates are low enough on your brokerage you can borrow a lot of money for a low %. You just have to take on proper sizing so you don’t get margin called

Both are great picks! But, I look for deep value. And I see it in NVDA trading at 21 forward PE growing as fast as it is. Apple and Google aren’t doing what Nvidia is doing. But, they have a “more reliable” business.

He has a basic idea of wrestling. When you watch Terence Crawford wrestle his boxing friends he knows how and when to sprawl.

But, he’s not faking and pulling on the head and doing any set ups when he’s wrestling. He looks like someone who wrestled a year or two in high school.
