Since some people here would also like to see negative trades for reasons of transparency and I also posted the purchase, here is the proof that you can make mistakes even with a lot of experience and that risk trades can also go wrong.

However, it is more important for me to explain which mistakes led to this. First of all, I was fundamentally convinced of the value $NOW (-0,87%) and didn't just want to accompany it in the short term with a derivative. I therefore chose one with an unlimited term and a distance to the KO of almost 10%. Accordingly, I did not initially set a stop. When the price then came under heavy pressure on Wednesday and especially on Thursday, I bought more in speculation of a countermovement and reduced the EK. However, instead of choosing a tight stop on Friday, I chose one that was quite far down, and now comes the fateful part: not a normal stop order, but a limit stop order. The difference is this:

With the stop order, the sell is executed when the stop price is reached at the next price, no matter what it looks like.

With a stop limit order, you specify a limit in addition to the stop price at which you want to sell after reaching the stop price. So e.g.

e.g. sL at €1 with a limit of €0.98.

In my case, the limit price was unfortunately no longer reached after triggering, and so the ticket was knocked out.

Normally, of course, I could have changed it, but as I was at a party last night, I didn't follow it that closely and when I took a look, it had happened 😉

The moral of the story,

Go party, don't trade!😂😂

It's not a disaster now, as the overall ratio of my derivative trades is positive at just under 8 to 2. But total losses don't have to be like this and they happen to me extremely rarely. Especially not when I enter so far from the KO.

As already announced yesterday lunchtime, I had considered investing in a derivative on $NOW (-0,87%) to enter into a derivative. When they briefly fell below $1,000 yesterday, I almost dusted them off at the day's low.

What do you think of $NOW (-0,87%) ? I am currently tempted to enter the market with a derivative.

Have just formed a golden cross and stabilized above the 50 and 200 day line.

My first target price would be 1160$. Medium term 1400$. The management's forecasts were very conservative after the last figures, so I could imagine an increase.

We (around 40 people from SW development) trundled into a bar after work last week and wanted to round off the evening in a relaxed atmosphere. Instead of 2 beers, there were of course significantly more and the topic of our operational business was over relatively quickly, in the end of course (once again) we only talked about AI and the discussion hype/sustainability and how each individual can benefit from it (many do without any company insurance, prefer to receive an annual bonus and invest it in the stock market).

In the end (8 beers later) there was relative agreement that it is

a) it is a megatrend with a tailwind (comparable to the internet or smartphones back then)

b) AI will change every industry (and in my opinion very quickly)

c) targeted investments will lead to significant increases in value in 5-10 years.

What has left us all with questions is the impact on the labor market. Entire industries will look completely different in the future; instead of people, there will be robotics and perhaps a handful of people monitoring everything. Where will that lead? Tax systems need to be rethought (loss of jobs = loss of wage tax and social security contributions), the education system needs to be revolutionized and so on. Where are we heading? AI user tax? Digital value-added taxation?

Very exciting with our political leaders and little hope :D

Of course, this is all minimally frightening, but it also offers us all incredible opportunities.

To return to the core issue: I think we all have an opportunity here to build massive wealth. My portfolio is extremely tech-heavy, so I'm still betting on the big players ($NVDA (-1,21%) , $TSM (-1,21%) , $ASML (-2,37%) - entire value chain for chip development), $GOOGL (+2,21%) , $META (+0,81%) . $AMZN (+0,97%) and also a few riskier ones like $PLTR (-1,43%) , $SMCP, $NOW (-0,87%) etc.).

Quantum computing would of course be the next big highlight, but that's another story.

What do you think about it? How will AI shape our generations, what social impact will it have and where are you investing?
