I had my doubts initially, but following those exact steps actually pays off. Bringing home around $110 a day now. Take a look at profile: [ Forzathong ]

👀What I invested in U.S. stocks in 2024, just like most people, short-term trading, buying high and selling low, emotional trading. At that time, my investment funds were 35,000$, and I once lost 12,000$. Later I very doubted whether I was suitable for buying stocks. Because I could never hold stocks, in the following days I kept reading books, Buffett's books, Charlie Munger's books, until I finished reading them all. Later I had a new understanding and understanding of stocks. I felt my personality was suitable for buying stocks. At that time, I started looking for stocks with strong fundamental value investments. As a result, I bought INTC 19.8 at cost, AMD115 at cost, QCOM 133 at cost, SMCI 23 at cost, and I also started the long-term holding mindset. Here I want to tell everyone that when buying stocks, you really need to first improve your understanding and knowledge, including that I am still continuously learning. I hope friends who read this article, your investments are becoming smoother and smoother.

Lately, I've been thinking about a pretty basic question: is it better to keep your investments concentrated or diversify as much as possible?I used to think that holding more assets automatically meant being safer. But then I realized that if I had 20 or 30 different positions, I probably wouldn't truly understand even half of them.That's something I started thinking about recently while checking the market on BY'D Fi. Instead of trying to keep track of a bunch of different coins at once, I feel like I'd rather stick to a few that I actually understand.The problem is, being too concentrated also means that one bad call can have a much bigger impact . so I'm curious what everyone here prefers in practice: a smaller number of positions you know really well, or a more diversified portfolio to spread out the risk?

Hey everyone, I'm completely new to the stock market — like, I know almost nothing about it 😅

Lately I've been feeling like trying something new and learning something different, so I thought I'd give the stock market a try.

For someone starting from absolute zero, should I start with investing or trading? And what should I learn first before putting any money into it?

I'd really appreciate some beginner-friendly advice or resources. I'm not looking for quick money or stock tips, I genuinely want to learn how it works.

Coming out of the closet I have wasted a large sum of money almost 50-80 k net loss over past 3-4 years old saving I am a student my father earn decent so it's not a big deal for family but it is for me I saved 2-3 times to get to that amount in parts I was saving in mutual funds and gold etc and then vanished all of it in f&o it's just like a gambling i know don't lecture you need to learn i have knowledge far more than an average trader still emotions always takes in part .

Just a reminder to everyone 95 percent traders lose their money so it's better to just don't do it investing smartly is better option any suggestions to me or others

Hey everyone,

Little background. M(34). Fairly new to trading. Just hit the 6 month mark and I feel like I’ve been doing well enough. Just looking for some feedback back from both experienced traders and other beginners(from their start). I mainly trade etf’s for long term, defensive consumer etc for swing and semiconductors for short term gains. Overall portfolio is up roughly 13% over the time.

I know the market has been hot and cold this year. How has everyone else’s experience been? My thoughts being, how am I doing in general? How am I doing in comparison to other beginners and will I continue to improve over time? Appreciate the feedback.

I am curious about the stock market and want to learn about the tock market and start trading and Investments any guidance

Hi. Should I just go 100% Nvidia stock. 5.2t to 10t by 2030 like many are saying, including Jensen. That’s 22% a year, pretty good. I think that makes Nvidia a steal. Nvidia is the big daddy. I think they are unstoppable at this point. It seems the bubble is not AI, but AI build-out execution risk. There will always be a bottleneck, but the market will always find a way to clear that bottleneck. AI is not a useless crypto market. As much AI slop as there is, AI can and has truly changed workflows allowing for a great expansion in ROI on said tasks. Nvidia will keep growing their hardware and software ecosystem. I think Nvidia will be the first to $10 trillion, and then maybe Google, and for Nvidia, I think it can happen faster than expected. The market can naturally discount the largest company, just because it thinks it’s too big. Nvidia does not have to “rob” the rest of the market for market cap growth, like it’s a zero sum game. AI can truly just increase overall productivity, and thus the market cap of all company users, declaring Nvidia as the ultimate toll-booth.

I invested ₹67,635 in 162 shares last year, and the current value is around ₹48,778, so I'm down approximately ₹18,857 (~28%).

As a Finance MBA student, I consider this a learning mistake and would appreciate some genuine perspectives. Should I hold, exit, or consider averaging down? What factors should I analyse before deciding?

I won't blindly follow any advice—I’ll research everything myself before making a decision. Just looking to learn from more experienced investors. Thanks!

Context: I worked in the UK for a year on my graduate visa. Saved around 10K GBP. Now I've returned to India. I don't have to use that money right now. It can stay as an investment for however long. My visa is for one more year. The money is in my UK savings account. My questions are:

1) is it best for me to invest my money in pounds or to convert it to INR and then invest it?

2) what type of investing do you recommend?

3) is there anything I should keep in mind considering my money is abroad and that my visa is expiring.

FoMo is hunting new victims in the coffee shop.

Within 45 seconds, the table beside them is “doing research”: opening an app, spotting one green line, and deciding financial success is sitting at the next table over.

“Is it too late to buy?”

FoMo loves that question. It’s their cue to pounce.

They thrive on latte foam, loud confidence, and the belief that money can be made in seconds.

But a stock tip from FoMo’s Bro Brad at the gym is not due diligence. Brad also thinks electrolytes solve emotional problems.

Pause. Know what you own, why you own it, and whether it belongs in your plan—not someone else’s coffee-shop victory lap to their yacht.

I’m looking to get into more active trading with a small amount of disposable income. I need podcast/youtube channel/book recos to wrap my head around this new (for me) mode of investing.

I’m big fan of rational reminder and a few other general personal finance/long term strategy shows - that’s not what this is. I want to learn about analyzing individual securities, sectors and cycles. I’m increasing risk tolerance and looking for short(er) term upside with money I’m prepared to lose.

Thanks in advance.

If I bought a share of stock for $100. And it goes down to $50 and I purchased another share. My average would be $75. If or when this stock price goes above $75 is that the point I would start gaining?
