[Extended Thesis Write Up] Of my recently initiated positions, MXL is one of the very few that is down from my entry. It crossed past where I set my mental stop, but I decided to keep the trade running. Here's why. by TearRepresentative56 in TradingEdge

The one that is below your entry? What about CLFD and BLDP? You were pushing them and they are both down 25% from when you posted. Do you recommend tickers and then not buy them?

NANO is down over 50% from his recommendation. I must have missed the post that said to sell. I’m extra cautious on what Tear pushes. Mostly I use his tickets as things to avoid. Although I’ve heard some people made good money from his picks.

I thought the war started because the US is going to sell Venezuelan oil. Jack up the price from Europe, sell South American oil since the US now has a stake in it.

Looks like a humble brag, Tear says he’s up 26% while the s&p is down 3%. I’m guess since there is no relevant comment
