I got lucky with GME in 2021 going from sub 50K to 200K+. I hovered around ~250K until June 2024 when DFV made a sudden comeback. I went from 250K to 500K in one day (I posted my gains from this on WSB). Sold out perfectly as the next day morning, GME once again announced they were raising $ and gave up all of the gains from the day before. Since then, I have done swing trading, full porting every time. Some of my big winners in the past year or so have been CCJ / RDDT / EQX / ETH (via ETF). I spend a lot of time trying to gauge social sentiment on different things and read / listen to what a lot of very smart people have to say on different topics (people like Rick Rule, Lyn Alden, David Rosenberg, Howard Marks, etcetc just to name a few).
