My biggest investment mistake so far: On 1.4.2022 I boldly jumped into the $QQQ3 (+1.9%) (3x Nasdaq 100). Without stop loss na logo. Yolo. Msw suitable action. In the meantime it looks like I could get away with a black eye. On the day with +/- 0 I will make three xxx.

What annoys me: path dependence and negative interest rate ensured that I am still 25% in the red. And that although the flight level of 01.04.2022 in the unlevered course is already reached again.

Instead of great Nvidia successes, here is a place for shame: Which zombie do you still have in your portfolio with a bitter loss, where you long for a day +/- zero?

Um, I still have 3 x $COIN in stock. Bought at 250€/piece 😵‍💫. But there I no longer wait for improvement. I chalk it up to a rookie mistake

Laugh. Oh there are still a few, but I rarely wait until they are back to plus/minus zero, because many will not make it with respect. Sell the always to offset the profits of other positions tax against. Out the sh...! As an example my biggest "graypod" is an option on Varta! I just can't get rid of it because the bill is no longer worth a euro. Must wait there probably until the end of the term.🥹

Something similar happened to me with a bet on the oil price. Before the outbreak of the Corona pandemic, the oil price fell because the OPEC countries were once again not in agreement. I thought, yes, you can go in and take something good. Then came Corona, everything was dead and the oil price has crashed massively🤝🤣 After interim -50% and more I am out at 0 and have only a small position continue to run and later sold at +20%.

Not everything can be successful, so I also realize losses when I am no longer convinced of the company. A few shares are also a little red with me but what the heck, brings color to the portfolio 😜 I'm just trying warrants, sometimes good, sometimes less good, but so far clearly positive.

I had a few yolo stocks and sold them heartlessly and restructured. I don't wait for 0 if I have a better idea to reallocate the remaining money. but I bought one of them again (with a much lower weighting). Let's see what happens with it.

It is what it is 🤷🏽‍♂️$TKA -53.22% (🎢📉)$SNH -91.82% (deposit was already skimmed 📈, so not really loss)$PHE -87,05% (the idea of clean energy ⚡️🔋 from waste ♻️ I still like 😅)$ACB -99.21% (reminder that you should skim instead of slipping when you're in the black 📉 😵‍💫)

The 3x Nasdaq continues to be very interesting to me. In conjunction with the "200 day line strategy". I just don't dare to start at the moment....

Yolo cannot work in the long term. Always nice risk management and sl

Why are you worried here? NASDAQ will continue to rise in the long term and the capital will multiply. Take a look at the long-term chart of QQQ3. Path dependency doesn't matter when prices are rising in the long term.
