How pathetic is this getting? 🤮

Before I start, I'd like to make one thing clear: I've never been a braggart or a bigot, but apparently a few people here need the truth!

I placed a short this morning out of FOMO and then probably sold the same short too quickly! So nice, so good! But the fact that some people are now making fun of it makes me think! You can't hit me with it because, to put it mildly, I don't care about a €400 loss, the whole short was just a "kick" that somehow backfired! 👎

But think about people who do care about €400! Instead of giving helpful tips, do you make fun of them?

Think a bit people, we all make mistakes and nobody is perfect, especially not on the stock market!

On that note, I wish you all a good return and FOMO is sometimes just sh*** 😂

No idea what has happened here in the last few weeks. Maybe there should be some kind of entrance exam including an IQ test for an account 🤷🏼‍♂️

Gerald@Irlandfan

@HoldTheMike If my IQ is then below the threshold, I will become Federal President.

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Irlandfan Or rather Chancellor, then you can at least "profit" a little from the special fund 😂

•

jkb92@jkb92

I think it's great that you've made your trade transparent here. It also led to a productive conversation. Just try to ignore the stupid comments :)

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@jkb92 Thanks ❤️ It wasn't really about me either! I can take it 😂 But if someone is new to the stock market and messes up... then you shouldn't make fun of it!

•

He-Man D.@He-Man

I hate schadenfreude.
Best regards 💥🗡️

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@He-Man Thank you 🙏 It's not about pity or anything else! I can take the loss, but what kind of sign is that for "newcomers" to the stock market? Every misstep is ridiculed? 🤮 That was actually what I wanted to say!

•

Raketentoni@Raketentoni

The people who make fun of it are the ones who supposedly only make profits 🙄 Don't listen to them. 👍

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Raketentoni That's the problem, everyone posts their 200% plus shares, but there are no losses...😉

•

Raketentoni@Raketentoni

@BavarianLion But I posted in my introduction that I have sunk several thousand euros into Wirecard 😂😂😂😂

•

teschi@teschi

So I can't really see from the comments on your short that people are really making fun of it seriously.
For a "I'll let the bill run to the end 🫠" such a fuss here...

•

Marcelo@Marcelo-80

Envy, resentment and the resulting schadenfreude are unfortunately on the increase in our society.

•

Chris@Multibagger

Don't get upset, some people are happy when others are wrong as well as you. Take it under the motto: shared suffering is half suffering! Just shrug it off, even if the others don't post the losing trades.

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Multibagger You know what I don't understand? If I really traded (which I don't), I would even post everything here transparently! So what? Whoever wants to go along, whoever doesn't, shouldn't (by the way, I advise everyone not to 😅)! So, that's just my opinion on it, and I'd actually like to close the topic now 🔥

•

Variett@Variett

Well, I see the "you can't hit me with it" differently, otherwise you wouldn't have made a post :).

But that doesn't make the behavior of some any better, we all make mistakes on the stock market or misjudge ourselves.

Since options trading is generally riskier, many just see it as gambling and make fun of it when it doesn't work (if someone makes 20% with a short, of course, nothing is said, you know).

So just keep going, although to be honest Taco Trump would also be too great a danger for options.

•

ThetaShort@ThetaShort

I merely quoted you as saying that you wanted to hold the short until the bitter end, only to close it an hour later.

•

alphawolf@alphawolf

German society has been increasingly made up of envy and resentment, and not just since this year

•

Pascal@Pacco93

I also don't understand what's wrong with people, how dissatisfied are they with their own lives? 🤔

•

Wealth-Accelerator@Wealth-Accelerator

@BavarianLion
I didn't think the reactions were too bad. It's cool that you made the action transparent and got away with a minor injury.
But you're allowed to hand out a little bit of trading cheek 😉

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Wealth-Accelerator That's all very well! But when such smileys "😂" are distributed, then maybe you should think about it! Or am I overreacting now? Maybe I'm a bit thin-skinned due to external circumstances!

•

Wealth-Accelerator@Wealth-Accelerator

@BavarianLion
Try to take it more relaxed.
There's only crying, tearful laughter, SOS, rocket, ... in the quick selection.
And I haven't seen any real hostility 😉

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Wealth-Accelerator I wasn't actually thinking of myself when I wrote this post! I was thinking of people who are new to the stock market and might make a stupid trade! Do you have to laugh at them?

•

Wealth-Accelerator@Wealth-Accelerator

@BavarianLion
I agree with you. Nobody should be laughed at!
But I don't know whether a smiley is a laugh or a laugh at something. After all, what else can you use to deal with a loss in a positive way than humor?
If someone really needs to laugh at someone here, then he or she is just a humble puny creature moving around in the online world.

•

GHF@GHF

@BavarianLion I can sympathize with you and agree with you on the content. But I think you were a bit thin-skinned with that post. Don't get angry, life goes on

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@GHF Yes, you're right! Maybe I should have just ticked it off and that's that 😉

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

Hope you didn't perceive our exchange as hate 😅?

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Klein-Anleger I'm definitely not referring to you ❤️ Our conversation was definitely positive 👍

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Klein-Anleger I wanted to add something in the post, but in the meantime I think to myself, screw it! But it might be good for you to hear: The reason I made this short was because I was at my father's yesterday, who likes to leave the TV on all day! So just war, escalation, Trump... maybe I was on the PC a bit too much for that! So here's a tip: if you're being bombarded from all sides, it's best not to do anything!

•

mami_goes_boerse@mami_goes_boerse

Resentment is everywhere. Those who feel this way have probably fallen into the FOMO trap often enough themselves. Stay true to yourself. I think it's great that you share your trade 😉

•

Chiefwiggum@Hidalidsch

Please don't let people like that influence you and continue to share things like this with the community, I just block them now 🙌🏽

•

fund_navigator_elshq@fund_navigator_elshq

Why don't you take a break from the stock market, then you'll get a different perspective. I think you are clearly too emotionally invested. It's just a trading venue, nothing more.

•

Nuqqx@Nuqqx

People are jealous because they don't have the money or the courage.

Fuck it, it's like in the gym - focus on your investment and leave the others to the left, except maybe your buddy ❤️

•

Felix@Investor_in_Jogginghose

There are people who simply don't indulge. But just posting trades before the outcome is rizz. It also shows reality and not just the wins. The haters probably wouldn't dare to do that.

•

Bagana@bagana

Typical internet. Don't let them get to you. Keep it up!

•

NichtRelevant@NichtRelevant

I found your idea with the short quite understandable. It didn't work out, but it was just an attempt. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@NichtRelevant It was just broken by Taco Trump 😉Well, you can cope with it, plan better next time and don't let emotions get the better of you

•

Georg@Gbud

Maybe off-topic, but if you don't care about €400, you should stay away from day trading!

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Gbud I think I'm done with this topic! I had no experience with trading and jumped in at the deep end! It was a mistake and I got off lightly!
However, I will now look into it a bit more intensively so that I might also be successful with trading in the future! Unfortunately, I've never taken the easy route in life... 😂 I've always preferred to fall flat on my face 5 times over!

Abyss@Abyss

Just block the people and that's it.

••

Matze@Stiller-Invest

Many think they are something special and for some I think it's just frustration because they can't do anything themselves.

••

KOI@KOI_FIRE_2040

Don't short.

Stefan P.@Kamerad57

Keep going and ignore the people, I wish all of us who try our luck on the stock market only the best.
