A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Go look for the next opportunity.

Ha, sucker. Know that I will round trip AS MANY TIMES AS IT TAKES! Before I touch my never-expiring lottery ticket.

Then I am happy for the people who come after me.
Bought a stock at 18,60 and sold it for 30, good profit. It's at 50 now, good for them.

a what?

I closed a long on CAD futures at .7249 after Trump's last taco, because I got scared and said "that's enough profit". Right now CAD futures are at .7319. That's .0070 higher than my exit, $70 per contract higher.
I'd be up several hundred more if I didn't close when I did. But I made a fine profit, and I'm looking at a lesson in exit strategy at the end of the day.
There's always opportunities in the market. It's ok.

Am I retard for stockpicking and just buying and holding indefinitely.

I already roundtripped on gold and silver but I’m pretty much back above break even. For example, I bought the service now dip and I’m now up 10%. Why not hold it to previous ATH, no matter what? Why not hold it until I make 200%

Should I just buy indexes if that’s my style?

It's ALWAYS wrong to take profits.

The moment you get into the mind set of profit-taking, you are fundamentally playing a different game.

You are playing a series of games of risk:reward you are mathematically guaranteed to lose if you do not have:
A- A carefully constructed strategy
B- A solid understanding of the potential P&L in every bet

The former is extremely difficult for a retard like the dear reader, the latter is practically impossible to determine.

And the reason you won't win this game:

Play a different game. Own assets, and do not trade them. Because you don't know what you're doing.

take the index pill, I’m nearly a millionaire just indexing like a Boglehead
>>
>>62123402
The reason it's called potential P&L is because you haven't actually gained anything. You don't have that money until you sell it and take profit.

Probably a lot richer than you because I've abided by my own principle
