this is literally the worst trading month I've ever had (June 15 - July 15). Hopefully things will turn around for me soon.

Fidelity is really strange sometimes
I can buy thousands of shares of a graphite mining company that doesnt even have an active mine(WWR), a pharma company with only a pipeline of prospects(ELOX) but I have to sign a Designated Investments Agreement to buy Plains All American Pipeline company that has billions of revenue and just announced a really big deal JV to consolidate the 2 largest oil midstream gathering systems in the entire Permian basin because its a "risky" investment
Just remembered I had $50 bucks in my old robinhood account still so screw you Fidelity i bought some August 11C calls instead

PROG, ELOX, ENG, RIG, and IDRA have completely wiped out my (lucky) gains I cashed out from the CLOV meme run a few weeks ago.

Not sure who is still in EBON just hit 52 week low. Have some net free left but has anyone seen anything meaningful?
Powell talked about the fed's digital dollar today. Crypto and miners will be worthless IMO when they release that. Personally, I'm done with crypto and miners, I don't care if they go to the moon or to zero (likely). It's not worth the risk for me.
They were always going to come up with Fedcoin.

There's still going to be a market for other crypto, lots of people who won't want every transaction to be under federal scrutiny for wrongpurchase.

Exited both EBON and DPW at significant losses several weeks ago. Both were amongst my earliest purchases after discovering this thread early this year. Not bringing that up to deflect any responsibility for the trades. That's always 100% on each of us. Just wanted to give some context for this next statement: psychological benefit of unloading those dogs was off the chart. Really freed my mind towards focusing on better places to generate profits both via trading and MA. I had no reason to continue to just sit and hope DPW and EBON had any strong prospects to regain their higher stock prices. Just my newbie opinion and experience. Worth what you paid for it.

Side note: does reading this thread post-colonoscopy qualify as degenerate behavior? LOL. I noticed yall didn't fix up WWR or ELOX while I was preoccupied earlier.


Agreed and typically have the same mindset. Holding net free shares on a declining stock or path can still be burden to compounding growth

What happens if governments, including ours, forbids transactions of cryptos within their borders? If they don't do that, what happens if they regulate the hell out of it?

If you had the ability to create an e-commerce company and at the same time have the power to eliminate AMZN, EBAY, BABA, etc, wouldn't you do it?

ETA: That's a risk I'm not comfortable taking when I can make money elsewhere.

Look at how bitcoin has grown and there's not a lot of places you can walk in and pay with it.

I have a hard time seeing bitcoin getting torched. You had Apple, Mastercard, and others start brokering payments with it this spring. Those companies are so in bed with our government, they wouldn't have started down that path if they were going to get told to shut it down.

I agree the world governments will likely make it tougher to use - they don't like competition.

Days like today are lessons for sure. A few 7/16 options are seriously out of the money and with no time to react while in meetings leaves me just hoping for a jump tomorrow. Man, down 16% in a day is an L for sure.

Hoping tomorrow something turns around to try and preserve some capital.

Your reasoning and forecast are sound, your timing is just a little early IMO. I've been zeroing in on August. GS and JPM were a good indicator. They beat earnings and dropped. I believe puts on earnings release are the play over the next 5 weeks. There's more headwinds for the market at these levels than there is catalysts to propel it higher. I'd advise everyone to not be on margin or make arrangements to get off of it. I'm not piling on you brother, just offering my opinion.

I went ahead and took the L on a bunch having lost trend or SRs. Even though Wednesday it will take a lot to move some back to break even.

Don't like looking at a red portfolio panel. Mental games.

Without knowing mechanically how to set up limits in my account, I rely on my ability to be accessible to it. That didn't happen today and cost me. Live and learn and fight back smarter.

At this point, losing the entire value of what is left in those premiums isn't worth much so I'll wait.

Almost my entire trading portfolio is small caps and SQQQ. Let's hope they soon cover and short the overheated Qs.

Lately my portfolio has been perfectly correlated with Houston weather!

I'm not as familiar with crypto as others and not trying to convince anyone, the potential roadblocks is out of my comfort zone when so many safer places exist to make money.

I use a notification to set a low limit on investments. Once I get there, I reevaluate but I wasn't able to "physically" not mechanically set those today. .

Yeah I am done with margin... I had Robinhood (I know I know) change margin limits from .6 to .75 on WWR over night and margin call me over night.

I am not sure how often this happens but it slaps you in the face out of nowhere...

Being in small caps right now must be like being bullied in school. You go to school and get your ass kicked every day!

Wasn't it OA that said a bull run like this only ends when small caps run too (they are the last to rocket upward).

He said .15 in his tweet, did he mean 15 cent increments down?

From here, I'd think we bottom at 52wk low, 1.34? Maybe Meade will be right. I'm long a ton of ELOX, selling puts on it too.

I read it as adding more every $0.15 down and looking at the timing it was around $1.63-$1.65 so could be
Also wonder if he trading buddy is now full up on his ballpark million shares
