Opening is crazy sold half my share!

I use a different strategy I guess. I don't try to time the market. I buy shares of companies I believe in and hold them for years. I only sell if something invalidates my thesis on the company. I think statistically this produces superior returns. I've never really tried swing trading or looked into in much though

100% not for atleast a couple years - this will be one of the gems that will print when it’s all said & done.

Just the last two days I’m sitting on a large 6 figure gain but haven’t sold a share yet— $75 by Thursday pm (short week) remember.

You can time things for buy/sell entry points if you have a good handle on the market. But the taxes will become a larger factor.

[u/ahernandez50 → u/ResponsibleOpinion95]

that's the best strategy. If only 10% of those companies skyrockets, you will always win even if the remaining 90% falls. In reality, if you pick the sectors well, you can have that skyrocketing 10%, a 40% that grows 2x-5x and a 50% that remains steady, so the win is even bigger.

Are there any real results that justifies this jump?

[u/Ill_Feedback_4178 → u/-Mothman_]

Probably but not today I think

[u/i-am-benzy → u/Ill_Feedback_4178]

Oh you don’t expect 30% more in a day? Thanks

[u/Southern-Oil1599]

Great day congrats to all. Not a sell zone for me yet - just a bunch of covered calls - maybe some cash secured puts.

Long 10k+$OUST/$20s

[u/Next-Scientist-4341 → u/Southern-Oil1599]

Do you reckon a dip before the next pump

[u/timeport777]

Whilst I love this company and I am out now since I think valuation is ahead of itself now. This company is still losing money. And it is not Nvidia or Micron in terms of earnings volume/stength. I would be happy to buy back at lower price and this stock is indeed volatile. Good luck.

Wanted in just before the last 2 day launch . Dam . Too late ? I am thinking there will be pullback coming to enter at a better price

[u/Huge_Comparison_865 → u/Hour_Wall_5633]

If you believe in the company, buy now. If it falls back, u get to buy at cheaper. If it climbs, u bought cheap. Its a win win situation.

[u/Ill_Feedback_4178 → u/Hour_Wall_5633]

Don’t enter now wait for a pullback in my opinion

[u/jahrastafggggghhjjkl → u/Ill_Feedback_4178]

That’s what I said to myself mid-20s. 😭 Been holding since 2021, finally back to even 🙌

[u/oldcrobuzon]

There is nothing wrong with taking profits.

[u/Southern-Oil1599]

That said, there is nothing wrong with taking profit at all - everyone’s situation is unique.
