    TIL that not every bike comes with a helmet lock! Of course, as little as I know about bikes, maybe most dont? My Shadow has a lock that just clicks through the d ring on the strap. I just lock it that way when I am away from the bike.

    my ira is down about 6% for the year, no idea on the trading account since I've been using it to fund the IRA and my HSA and I'm too lazy to do the math with the deductions. it's pretty ugly though. as I mentioned, I was dabbling in the penny cesspool for a little while, 1 is bankrupt and I'm...

    the chatter is reduced, but my guess is the number of times it gets checked goes up significantly as those of us riding the coat tails of real traders anxiously reload the page waiting for you, blazin or one of the others to post your new positions 😁

    The Loss-Pron Thread

    INTC was one of my first "big" losses. I played that quite a bit on the way up from the covid crash, and one night after a big earnings dip, I grabbed a few shares, inside of an hour I sold it for a 10% profit. It was awesome. Happened again later, and I went bigger (still not what most of...

    The ironic thing about it is, I am also very risk adverse (took me awhile to figure this out, at first I just didn't know what I didn't know, so wasn't scared.). Now having admitted to being risk adverse, I have made most of my money wallowing in the cesspool of penny stocks. Not on my own...

    The Loss-Pron Thread

    I started trading early Feb 2020, and oftentimes I wonder 10+ years in the future how I am going to look at these last 2 years. A TON of money to be made, but with some of the stuff going on, a ton to be lost too. I've been lucky so far, I have a very conservative financial mentality so while...

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    My father in law has a pretty good size chicken coop that has lasted 25+ years. He used house siding (t-111 I think it was?) and painted it. He overbuilds, but it has survived quite a few hurricanes.

    Despite how many times we talk about the market, and timing it. I looked at that FTEC batch I grabbed yesterday this morning 2% up, and looked at the indexes, something told me to sell it, but I went out and did things that needed doing. Not worried about it being red other than I could have...

    This is why I am a failure at stonks. I dont understand it lol. GME mentions they are gonna create some kind of NFT marketplace, so of course, it makes perfect sense for AMC to move from 22ish to 26ish in sympathy right?

    I've dabbled in a few of them since I first started trading (mostly out of curiosity). I do not currently pay for any though. My take on it was finding a group that trades the same way you do is pretty hard, and (as I think someone else pointed out here) trading someone elses style can be...

    The last half of the year I made a BUNCH of stupid plays. A few people I was chatting with were playing with a technique and I gave it a shot and ended up regretting it. Learned some, didnt lose a ton, but could have done better if I had stuck to my original plan.

    I'm sitting around 70% cash atm. I dabble in day and short swing trading so tend to stay cash heavy in this account. I got crunched in the travel stock dump but it is a small enough position it isnt any significant amount of money.
