My very red points:
1) Fastly - I had accumulated 5k papers. I felt hedged with a stop loss. Until 01.05 last year. There was an earnings call and the share plummeted.
May 1st is a national holiday here and stop losses are not executed.
I then hoped for a bounce the next day and bought more. The bounce did not materialize until today.
I sold at some point and will probably be able to realize tax-free stock gains for the rest of my life. That's how big the loss offset pot is.
That was my confession 1.

2) Lilium - as a Munich resident, I got in far too big and far too expensive with an emotional and "I believe in it" attitude, ignoring all warnings. That was expensive: the lesson for me was: no more emotion when choosing shares.
