Head against stomach challenge!

There has been a change in my challenge portfolio today.

$ENPH (+2.97%) has left this portfolio today. At the end of the day it was up around 38%. However, I had also bought this share in the growth portfolio. It will remain there, as I see even more potential.

I invested part of the proceeds directly in the highly speculative $SPCE (-5.46%) directly.

50 shares at 7$.

The other two stocks $BB (+2.65%) and $RIOT (-2.35%) will continue to run for the time being.

I started buying some last year because I expected it to go up this year during the tests. last year my shares were still at just under €4 and I was able to push the price down further by buying more. When the news about Space x came on the 21st, I made another big purchase and increased my stock to 5800 at an average price of €2.52. Well, you can imagine that I was walking around with half a heart attack just today🤣

When I see sweets, there's always a head versus stomach challenge.

I'm in with 37 pieces, if things go wrong the 230€ won't hurt, but you can look forward to 12.06 😄

I also added 30 shares to my portfolio this morning and hope that it works. As I'm still new and don't really have a plan for "gambling positions", I'd be interested to know what to expect here, especially when SpaceX's IPO comes around. I'm sure many of you have already participated in other things. So I mean now in the event that it happens as everyone expects. Would this share then rise directly or rather before? When would then be the time to take profits, do you continue to raise the SL every hour or similar? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm sure I won't have the emotions under control when the stock goes down😂

@ReachForTheStars169 The share has fluctuated between 7 and 30% + today alone. Where do you want to set an SL? You'll be out faster than you can update your portfolio. As a newcomer without a plan, I would refrain from such experiments. I know it sounds harsh, but I mean it sincerely. But if you want to trade such stocks, then set yourself a limit for the maximum you are prepared to lose and leave the SL there and don't touch it for the time being. If the share is then up 50% or 100%, you can pull it back a little, at least to your entry price. Nobody knows if and when the share will go through the roof. It's best to write off the money in your mind.

@Multibagger
Thank you for your feedback. I may have expressed myself incorrectly, sorry. I have the SL down at 30% loss in my mind. I meant how you/you deal with it when the share goes through the roof, when do you decide when it is enough or when do you pull out. At least pull out the stake. I know I've read a lot about the perfect entry/exit, but almost nobody knows it. Unfortunately, I don't have a TSL at Trade Republic and have to make manual adjustments.

@ReachForTheStars169 I had written that from 50% plus, I would pull up to deuce. If you are more anxious, from 30%. And then I would only move up after the close of trading and not during trading. I know that's not possible with TR, so you just have to do it in the morning.
