Have you ever bought a share by mistake?

I accidentally bought more today $VUL (+8.18%) wanted to sell it, but was distracted by my meal. Then wanted to sell 100%, pressed buy instead of sell and bought for €100 🤥

I generally only buy shares when I'm driving - e.g. when I'm stuck in a traffic jam. 🎯😋

Accidentally bought $KO shares for €40,000 last year 😄

Not by mistake, but I bought Honda last year because the daily chart at Trade Republik showed -66% and there was no negative news, so I thought I'd take the dip with me. But it wasn't a dip but a split. Now Honda is in the depot rum 😅

I mean if you have so much money that you buy for €100 on the side, you've done something right😂😂

I thought I was in a limit order with TR and unintentionally topped up BAT shares for €1500 at a price of €32 😁
