I would like to share some of my regrets. I did not or could not buy Siemens Energy when it was at €7. I had cold feet but knew it was overdone and the stock was untradeable. The same day it went up to €10. Later, I sold all my Siemens Energy shares $ENR (+3.25%) at around €30 with 70-80% profit. 😢 I had a similar experience with Meta $META (-0.47%) I didn't buy at €90 and sold at €325 with a similar profit. Fortunately, I kept 1/3 of my position. These regrets make me angry and sad. I had "skin in the game" and still missed out on the returns! The stock market often exaggerates, whether up or down. 😔 Do you feel the same way?

Enjoy the profits and don't mourn the missed returns, Burner.
I think that's just part of it and I'm sure every investor has experienced it more than once.

Oh, that happens -
Look at it the other way around. I bought Siemens Energy pretty much as soon as it came out and have held it ever since. Although I was even well up at the beginning 😂 I then also took part in the low of €7 and continued to hold on - now I'm up 50% again.

Well - I definitely missed out on a lot of returns. I didn't buy more, for example. 😅
And it took me forever to get back into the green.

Well - what can I say. I held on to other shares and am still deeply in the red. I only held others for a short time (Apple, NVIDIA at the start of 2021) and sold them again shortly afterwards with virtually no profit because there was too little strategy and I was at the beginning - you can see where it is now.
I wanted to be sensible with BTC and didn't buy it at the time out of great uncertainty. I thought the system was mega and what was behind it, but I didn't feel I understood it well enough. I still don't, but look where BTC is now.

You're just not in it ^^

I bought $PLTR at 7.5 or so and sold at 17/18. I bought $NVDA in 2021 and sold at 23 or so. I can give you lots of examples of this 😄 it is what it is...if it were that easy, we wouldn't all have to work anymore 🤷

$ENR I didn't want to sell it, but unfortunately $PLTR is still sold. I regret that very much!

Unfortunately, that's part of it :/ Get annoyed for a short time and then don't think about it so much. As a small consolation, I sold NVidea $NVDA at a price of 35$. Look at the price now :D

With a functioning momentum strategy, this might not have happened 😀

I'm not selling it indeed. The graphic looks sooo good.
Anyway it's not about looking back. I've done also some errors, but still there are new oportunities the whole time. Really the value that for me it's a big gem now is $MSTR It's really awesome!
