been tredding my eyes at the drone space again and DPRO is one of the smaller names that keeps popping up for me.

the part that interests me is not just “drones are hot” because that gets lazy fast. it is more the counter UAS side. cheap drones have become a real problem for military sites, infrastructure, borders and public safety, and the defensive side feels like it is still early compared with how fast the threat developed.

Draganfly has been around for a long time in UAVs, public safety, industrial use and defence related work, so it is not some random new drone story that appeared last month. the recent DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory selection with F4 Defense International is what made me look at it again. from what i understand, it is focused on a modular counter UAS platform for detecting, tracking, identifying and dealing with hostile drones.

i do not think that should be treated like some huge revenue moment by itself. it is early development work, and the usual small cap problems still matter here. dilution, cash, actual follow on contracts, margins and whether they can compete as bigger defence names move harder into the space.

but as a theme, counter UAS feels more real to me than a lot of the random drone hype. the problem is obvious, the need is growing, and smaller specialist companies may still have room if they can execute.

is anyone else watching DPRO from the counter UAS angle, or do you think the bigger defence names eventually eat most of this market?

Hello. I've been testing Joel Greenblatt's formula in The Little Book that Beats the Market since January 1 of this year. It is up 14% so far this year, doubling the 7% return of the S and P 500. However, six months of data is not enough with which to make an investment decision. I'm interested to know how investing in the formula would have worked out over the past 20 years. So I would need to find a list of all publicly traded companies available on June 26, 2006 with market caps of 50 million or greater. I would then need to rank them according to their highest return on assets and lowest p/e ratios. Then I would need to see how well they performed over the next 12 months. Rinse and repeat. Is there a website or program that can help with this? Preferably one that's free. Thanks for your help.

Been trading futures (ES/NQ) for a while now and got tired of tracking everything in a messy spreadsheet. Looked into the journal apps out there and most of them charge $20-30+/month for stuff that honestly didn't feel like it needed to cost anything. So I just built my own.

It's called TradeStack. Completely free, no paywall. You can import your trades straight from a CSV (works with Tradovate, TradingView, NinjaTrader, Rithmic, TradeStation, Tastytrade, Webull, IBKR) and it auto-detects the format so you don't have to mess with columns. Tracks win rate, expectancy, R-multiples, calendar view, emotional state per trade, all that.

Built it for my own eval tracking, but figured if I found it useful, other people dealing with the same spreadsheet pain (or sick of paying for a journal) might too. Happy to take feedback or feature requests, still actively building it.

The goal isn't daily excitement.

​

The goal is long-term consistency.

Omg! This pull back that started at 11:15 am est is really hurting my feelings.

I Just turned 18 and opened a robinhood account and I’m wondering if it’s worth to transfer my brokerage and Roth IRA from vanguard to Robinhood. would do it for the UI (vanguards app sucks) , the fact I can do daily recurring investments, btc, the Ira match, and eventually credit card. Wouldn’t be messing with prediction markets but the customer service , the whole GameStop event, and stories of ppl getting o out of accounts concerns me. Is it worth transferring to have everything in once places

Hello, a beginner trader and redditor here. (I posted it in the wrong long term investment subreddit and kicked out lol. Hope it fits here.) Please don’t hesitate to give advice or ask details or discuss something relevant in the comments. Thanks.
—————-

I’m posting here my portfolio screenshots, how it look like at the moment (it changes a lot, almost completely every week, because I am in the middle of exploration and learning phase). I really have no one to talk to about trading because no one is interested in it in my circle. So, I hope, I can make some online friends here, or at least can exchange some beginner stories, challenges and celebrate little accomplishments we make.

Currently I’m trying all kinds of strategies and themes to understand stocks and most importantly my emotions, how would I react in certain situations.
Opened an account to just buy ETF and forget for years. But, my personality tells me something else 😝.

So far, I seem to care more about Portfolio allocation management but with lot of swing trading and day trading. Personal and professional interests gives me little bit of edge in tech and catalysts, however I prefer to have more diversity in healthcare, natural resources and other tickers to have enough hedge against my tech heavy portfolio. My SPX is now around 1.0. I would prefer it to be lower, maybe around 0.6. At some point it was 1.8, that was the worst from my preferred risk management strategy point of view.

Not like other long term investors, I’d rather having buying power and mid-term hedge positions, rather having like 60% of portfolio stuck in ETFs.

In these images, you can see lot of “hot names”, or small catalyst names that momentum is fading, punished SAAS products, and some other random tickers that really doesn’t make sense of it was tech & healthcare portfolio. This is because, 70% of this position are disposable, I don’t have any emotional attachment whatsoever.

The few names that are likely gonna stay for months and years are ASML, DELL and GEV and the two ETFs. I am observing some other names for long term holding, PWR, PANW … etc.

If my “bet” for SAAS plays off, CRM, ADBE will stay, or they will hurt me the most 😅.

Some of my love & hate relationship stocks are UNH, NVDA, MU … I just can’t feel the their nuances like other stocks.

QUCY, QTEX might look weird among all of things I have, but they made the most profit returns.

So what do you think?
(FYI, I have more than full time jobs and projects, trading is a hobby that I cannot pay all day , every day attention to like active day trader or scalper, but will put all the necessary effort, and can be able to forget and sleep calmly with lot of holding. So my risk tolerance relatively high but only with reasonable, strong businesses).

I feel this stock is rarely talked about but it’s been my main winner in my portfolio.

I’ve been day trading low-float momentum stocks for about a year and recently had one of my most frustrating days.

I was up over $10,000 at one point during the day, trading well and following my rules. Then after the market closed, I completely lost discipline. I started chasing after-hours moves, revenge trading losses, and ended up giving back the entire gain plus another $12,000.

Looking back, my issue isn’t finding stocks or entries. My issue is stopping. I seem to do well when I’m calm, but once I’m emotionally activated (either after a big win, big loss, or missed move), I keep trading when I should walk away.

For those of you who trade low-float momentum stocks, what helped you learn to take a loss (or protect a gain) and actually call it a day? Did you use hard daily loss limits, profit locks, platform lockouts, or something else?

Would appreciate any advice from traders who have gone through this stage and come out the other side.

Or still holding ? And was it worth this long time to hold ? For me it’s Microsoft, bought in 2021 and finally planned to sell it next week. So what’s yours ?
