/smg/ - Stock Market General

Make sure to dip your way in gradually. The dunning-kruger effect is a real son of a bitch in stock trading. Don't go in hard the first time you start to think you're right on the ball with all your picks. Market has a tendency to fuck your shit up real good when you're on the summit of Mt. Stupid.

Have you ever seen a hype stock die? It looks like this. The tutes are fleeing and retail is buying only to lose 5% on the next day. TSLA may bounce @ 180 but it's been ripping through support like nobodies business. If you were long this last wave, I would not say it was forgiving. I would be surprised if TSLA ever trades above 240 again.

For sure. That's why you need to have a good grasp of statistically advantageous entry points and defensive stop losses to make sure your risk isn't in unacceptable territory on the trade.

I'll remember to keep myself humble.
Plus, I've been reading whatever I can get my hands on and the most important lesson I've learned so far is this:
Do not let greed or fear control your actions or strategy. Remove the two from the equation as much as is possible.

>trading based on "hype" instead of book value and fundamentals
losing all your money will be a good lesson for you

Not your blog. Go back to wherever you came

So i've been trying to build my portfolio and I wanted to get into dividends, but my question is how diverse should I get with only about $2000 to start out with initially,
i'm not sure if I want to stick with hard tested dividends or branch out with ones that have some dividend growth in the future
basically im a fucking retard

Lads, TSLA is offering bonds guaranteed by the monthly payments on their customers' car loans. Don't buy their stock, just buy their bonds and if they expire with the stock valued above the strike price you get extra money. It's a no brainier with way less risk as long as they don't go bankrupt in the next 2 years. I believe they have a may 2021 stroke of $310. If it moons you make money, of it doesn't moon you get a small amount of interest, if they fail then... Well you'd be out of money but they are too big to go bust just yet.
