@Multibagger has put me to sleep with 10.33% miles 😛 Should I be ashamed now? 😏😬🙈

All joking aside, it was a volatile month,

drivers were $IREN (+4,22 %)
$RKLB (+1,34 %) and $PNG (+1,11 %)

The warrants on $ASML (-1,17 %) and silver, as well as $HIMS (+3,34 %) and $SOFI (+1,2 %) ...

It was a good start to the year :)

Top Movers

$ASML (-1,17 %) + 34%

$JEDI (+3,06 %) +23%

$SLVY (+2,78 %) +22%

$8002 (-2,06 %) +17%

$KLAC (-0,97 %) +16%

Top Loosers

$HIMS (+3,34 %) -17%

$XS3087774306 (+7,96 %) -16%

$AOF (-0,58 %) -15%

$UNH (+3,13 %) -14%

$QCOM (+1,44 %) -12%

$ASML (-1,17 %)

I like the ASML chart very much at the moment. I will now go long here. TP1 1247, TP2 (depending on momentum) 1260€ - 1270€

SL at 1195€

CRV at 2.71

Security: DE000VJ5EMN2

As announced in my strategy update, I consistently pull the ripcord on my high-flyers as soon as the targets are reached. Today I got serious.

$ASML (-1,17 %) Sold 2 shares at +100%.

$GOOGL (-1,03 %) Sold 7 shares at +200 %.

My original investment is completely back in the account. This means that the remaining shares (3x ASML, 7x Alphabet) in my portfolio are now pure profit positions.

The money now goes into the $IEFM (-0,63 %)

Good morning dear community.

As things have become a little more uncomfortable on the stock market recently, I'm wondering where there are now good opportunities to invest money in good, profitable companies.

Which stocks do you have on your radar?

For me it is among others in the USA

$AMZN (-0,41 %)

$MSFT (-0,18 %)

$GOOGL (-1,03 %)

$NOW (+3,59 %)

$NFLX (+0,87 %)

In Europe

$2GB (+0,27 %)

$WKL (+4,69 %)

$ASML (-1,17 %)

$DB1 (+4,81 %)

These are just a few examples.

What else could you add?

Best regards 💥🗡️

As an absolute noob in this area, I also tried my hand at a short trade. I bought it before earnings and was under water for a while. Today $ASML (-1,17 %) strangely enough, the price fell and I took the opportunity to sell it again. Basically, I don't think ASML has any major difficulties.

But it's generally not my world, so I think I'll leave it alone in future. 😅😅😇

$QDEV (-0,13 %) fell below the INAV of 9.93 and the SMA(50) today, so I brought forward a few planned savings plans.

Buying outside the usual trading hours is sometimes an advantage.

Large allocations like $ASML (-1,17 %)
$AAPL (-2,33 %)
$NOVO B (+1,22 %)
$META (-1,64 %) that this ETF has still convince me and with a future projected P/E of 23.61 not so much overpriced.

A short confession from me: I'm 19 and this year I've burned around €500, which was actually intended for my MacBook (within 1 1/2 weeks), mainly through long and short positions ($ASML (-1,17 %) short, $PHAG (+2,14 %) short , and $MSFT (-0,18 %) ) with aggressive leverage.

It was instructive, but also painful.

Conclusion for me: That's it for leveraged products for now. Too much emotion, too little experience and you end up paying the price. I realized that the quick in-and-out is not for me - at least not at my age and with my capital and little experience.

I've also learned something:

If you just buy what's on the forum, you have to expect exactly that.

Nobody here is responsible for my decisions, everyone is responsible for their own investments.

I'll file this away as an experience, learn from it and focus on calmer strategies in future (or nothing at all for the time being).

Perhaps this post will help one or two people who think that leverage is the fast track to success.

Hello everyone,

I've taken another look at my portfolio. I currently have a mix of a solid All World (23%) foundation, a strong cash/gold reserve (28%) and some aggressive individual bets such as $IREN (+4,22 %)
$HIMS (+3,34 %) and $LMND (+4,57 %) and $BTC (+1,59 %) .

What I've been missing so far is the "strong midfield" - a component that is less risky than stock-picking but has more power than a standard European index.

My plan: I consistently shift profits from my individual stocks (as soon as they reach +100%) into the iShares MSCI Europe Momentum $IEFM (-0,63 %) . Target weighting: 12 %.

Why exactly this ETF?

Instead of investing in the EuroStoxx 50 $CSSX5E (-0,35 %) "old industrial dinosaurs", the momentum factor filters out the strongest players in Europe at the moment (e.g. $SIE (-3,71 %)
$SAP (+0 %)).

Regional diversification: My portfolio is very US and tech-heavy. With the momentum approach, I get the European elite on board, including Switzerland, the UK and Denmark (which are missing from the EuroStoxx!).

Automatic rebalancing: If trends shift (e.g. from pharma to defense or tech), the ETF adjusts every six months. I don't have to guess which sector will perform next.

The strategy: I use my "high-flyers" as a source. When stocks like $IREN (+4,22 %) or $GOOGL (-1,03 %) reach their targets, I withdraw the stake and park it in the momentum ETF. In this way, I reduce my individual stock risk, but remain offensive in terms of the potential return.

The only watchpoint: Since I $NOVO B (+1,22 %) and $ASML (-1,17 %) as individual stocks, I make sure that the total weighting of these stocks in the ETF does not become a lump (limit: max. 8% per stock).

What do you think of the move? Would it be better to invest broadly in the Stoxx 50 $CSSX5E (-0,35 %) or 600 $EXSA (-0,07 %) or does the momentum factor make more sense for a growth strategy? 📈
