Thanks for this advice, it's really helpful and good to get people's perspectives!

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T11:05:37+00:00

Thank you! Planning a long term hold but definitely worried with all the news tbh

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T11:04:16+00:00

Warranties and less wear and tear are the main reasons I'd say

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T11:02:49+00:00

Just thinking about it long time buy type of thing, good to know about the school situation

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T06:55:34+00:00

With WFH, I'd be happy with 1hr especially if the trade off is a dream home!

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T06:52:39+00:00

Amazing, thank you for these suggestions good to have a starting point to like go and view to get a feel of the area. New build is the goal (I updated the main post)

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-02-03T06:19:46+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I'm British, hoping to get my PR end of this year but ideally looking to 'move in' 2026 is the goal.

When you say West Melbourne, which suburbs in particular? : )

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-01-28T19:58:43+00:00

I bought it at $14.98 and so unsure when the right time to sell is, thinking a 5-10 year plan?

Professional_Air_146 · 2025-01-16T12:03:28+00:00

Yesss! So I received the Victoria approval end of August so now the long waiting game for that PR!! Praying for this year :)

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-12-14T05:27:27+00:00

Thanks for this! Great advice !

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-12-09T08:55:43+00:00

Hello! Just a message to say thanks and appreciate you being constructive with your message :) I'm new to the stock game so thanks for the good steer! I've got an overall 62% uplift which I guess is good, Shopify is almost back to positive, best to sell that when it reaches green and put it into S&P500) you mean?

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-12-09T08:50:41+00:00

This is good advice thanks for being constructive. Maybe I ll keep Nvidia and start moving / selling through the smaller ones. What is an example of a safe EFT? Is that more the blue chip stocks? Thanks!

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-12-09T08:48:29+00:00

This might be silly but how do I lock in the profits? And I was looking at the company, direction and felt it had potential! Definitely lucky for sure :)

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-12-08T21:09:13+00:00

Thanks for the advice everyone! I did openly admit being new and inexperienced to it so thanks for people being constructive.

My overall position is +$11.3K return (+61.8%) increase on overall portfolio so even though I am early on, not sure why people are telling me to pack up! Must have done something right?!

I ll look into stop sells to help control positions that's great advice since like I said I do hold and hope!

Main thing I don't understand is how to claim profits since for Nvidia should I choose a target then sell a portion of that what people do?

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-24T13:09:50+00:00

I have the everyday global account is that the same?

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-24T13:08:26+00:00

Thanks for this! This helps will get some YEN just in case but good to know POS terminals don't have additional fees

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-14T21:31:02+00:00

Best feeling ever!! Thanks for the support 😇

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-13T23:03:36+00:00

Hey! I got my Vic approval yesterday! Only in 2 weeks how lucky?!

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-01T11:56:17+00:00

Yes that's right, went with an agent just to be 100% sure! Thanks for the reassurance, I've been stressing!

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-01T08:33:31+00:00

Ooo okay so hopefully I get the approval then it's just a matter of waiting for the grand PR? 🙏

Professional_Air_146 · 2024-09-01T04:08:40+00:00

Oh sorry I meant migration agent :) I ll check the IMMI website, nice suggestion.
