u/UltimateTraders

Good morning everyone. Some people did have questions yesterday. I did answer them but figured others may have the same questions. I have about 40 bags right now. Let us say the average that I am down is 2,500. [I am down about 10K on ODD but I also made profitable trades on PGY +350 and EPC +425] so we are making this example easier.

Do understand I am a swing trader. I try and buy good quality companies that are dipping. I try and buy things I deem below my fair value. I then swing them and try to make between 200 and 600 per trade. I have been trading since the very end of 1994. I was barely 14! Since about 2010, my goal with trading was to make 100K, no more no less. I have done that and more every year since! 2022 was very slow, was mainly put CITY and at that time I came close to not going over 100K. In 2020 and 2021 I made well over 100k! let us say it was in the 7 digits! I was able to retire thanksgiving of 2021. I worked in health insurance as a Medicare consultant. I was making about 150K a year after bonuses, commissions, started 2014 and decided the job was affecting my trading, and by that time the real estate was growing so fast. [I took a ton of money I made from the market to diversify into the stock market. I started working a W2 in 2012. This was mainly by choice. I had a serious health scare the end of 2016 and started buying real estate in 2017. I passed up some tremendous real estate deals in my early 20s but did not want to be a landlord. Now that I am a landlord, it is actually worse than expected! Then again, I am in C+ or B- areas, where people are paycheck to paycheck, but that is the only way you can make money! I do not recommend D . The cap rates are way higher, you could make more money but you will deal with heavy crime, bad areas.. also the appreciation may not exist! You will get cash flows, if you can collect… if you can turn around the property, and area, you will stand to make the greatest gain, but risk!

So back to the questions… Yes, I probably should do a stop loss, maybe 25%, sadly I have never used a real or a mental stop loss, ever! I have taken quicker losses but never a hard stop. That is a big error that I indeed have. But if you take 2,500 and multiply it by 40 bags. That means I am negative  about 100k.

I have netted above 100K already, more than that, so you know! So if I wanted to just wipe a lot of taxes off, I can just tax loss harvest and take hits on everything. This is why by December 1^(st) I would like to sell at least 10 of these bags….. By December 15^(th) another 10-15. If my average red bag is 2,500… and I average 300 per profitable trade, that means I make 8 trades to wipe out a bag. So you can see how I do well.

If you calculate all my trades, I am really right about 99% or higher! That is because I make quick trades and take my profits… is it the best way? You have to do what is comfortable for you. I had:

NVDA 90

AMD 85

MU 80

SNDK 43

SDC 83

WDC 50

But I also have MNDY bag 140, DOUL 165, TTD 36 and 55… and I can tell you a bunch of trades where I have taken the profits and the stocks are down like 75% or more!

I did last week read about another famous hedge fund manager who was right about 52% of trades! But if their portfolio had 50 positions, let us say, he had maybe 3 carrying everything! Or slightly 5% of his portfolio, he simply just rode his winners hard. And he said many others do the same! I would do that if I just had 100+ million to just sit and do this… but I don’t! So I hope this answers questions people may have.

 

I am willing to do up to 3 longs today.

I sold 500 PGY from 12.65 to 13.35 [350 profit]

I sold 500 EPC from 15.85 to 16.70 [425 profit]

I am in 250 PYPL at 43

 

Some excellent earnings:

NMM      STEP [Will buy the dip]       NVDA        AVEX [DD may add to Plays]       ELF [A little eh on guidance]        SBLK [May add to plays]

 

Some very good:

RL              NIO       YMM         

 

Some good:

WMS      AAP       DE      URBN

 

INTU did not have good earnings, they were not bad either, they were ok, guidance eh, but down 16% premarket I may add to plays and buy the dip.

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. Taking care of CT again. Here is a list of my 39 bags at the moment. I am not far off on about 5 of these bags. I do not want to have more than 25 bags by December 1^(st). I will tax loss harvest. This is my trading account as I have many different accounts. A tax loss will wash off capital gains, and you can take an additional 3,000 loss per year, you have to wait at least 30 days before you re-enter a position if you decide to.

I purchased 100 shares of WIX at 54

 

I will add up to 2 longs today unless I can sell something off. I will hold up to 50 bags before I stop. Some of these positions like SPT and FVRR I was about to take the loss less than 30 days ago as the stocks did rally some.

 

Huge NVDA earnings today. They have been smoking earnings for more than 3 years straight. What is amazing is at this size growth in sales and earnings has both been over 30% year over year [Check this quarter over the same quarter last year] over and over again. Just incredible. This will give us an idea on big tech as their biggest customers are META MSFT AMZN GOOGL and they carry like 90% of other tech companies.. I think I read somewhere that AI has accounted for something like 30% of the earnings growth for 1^(st) quarter 2026, insane.

 

Good luck! I must run!

Good morning everyone. Will be in and out today. They will start doing the appraisals today for the 3 property deal. I am not sure why they don’t just do it all the same day. The properties are all near eachother but this is what I am told by TD Bank. This will be the first deal I am doing with them. They are much more strict than my normal local banks, and a lot slower! But they have much more money to lend! So you know, TD bank does not normally take on Investment properties/Rentals.. These are all owned by an LLC, but I am told my total portfolio is so big and they want in… They require a 35% down payment, but come next year, when I start building a 50-100 unit building and need 15-25 million I wont have to scramble. My 2 smaller local banks have to use monthly meetings just to approve me. The main issue is that they are out of state LLC owned properties. Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Chase, Citi, even Rocket , they do not do out of state investment properties owned by an LLC. I will be in town Friday and try and be there for the last appraisal. I hope this closes within 4-5 weeks.

3 Properties, 11 Units in Bristol 1.31 million

Fairly good shape.

I am looking for larger deals not a 2-3-4 family… If 1 of these are next door to something else I own maybe. I aim for 400-600 per unit/door after all expenses including the mortgage! Definitely much harder these days, 2017-2020 they were all over…  other investors have come to my areas.

 

I took 250 shares of TREE from 35.25 to 37.50

I took 100 shares of WIX from 56.50 to 58.50

I am in 250 FRPT 48

I am in 500 PGY 12.65

 

I will do up to 3 longs, much of the stuff on the title. I am in no rush. I am about to spend 500K hard cash for major renovations across 3 of my properties. [I now have about 30, 110 units] so I am slowly taking money out of my trading/investment accounts. When I build something new, I will be using the equity from my own properties.

Good morning everyone. I met up with 3 more contractors Saturday in CT. I should be making a decision by Wednesday on a 130k-150K large renovation. This is for a large roof as well as a 3 story porch. I have met up with about 5 so far. It isn’t just about the money, it is making sure it is done correctly and will not be touched again for 30-50 years. So I have to go over some paperwork. This will be short and simple. I am also getting a lot done for my 3 property 11 unit deal from 1 seller, which should close in 4-5 weeks from here.

 

I was tweeting over the weekend on many of my most recent pics. WDC STX MU SNDK GOOGL PENG

I also posted some of my stuff to hedge fund managers like Bill Ackman… I do wish I had the opportunity. I am just as good if not better than any of them. Also, many people do not know but even the best, Jim Simons, was basically very right on a handball of names, they held them thru and it carried the weight of the whole portfolio… I am saying this, because if I had billions of dollars I can just sink in names, of course I would have held many of those names longer! But I don’t have anywhere near that capital. My win rate is crazy high, at least 99%!!! But I am down on some bags like 50% or more. So my only issue is I am taking big losses % wise.. Like last week a 60% loss on GAMB . But for every loss I take, I am doing 99 or more wins! My wins, I try and get 200-600 per trade.

Let us for simple purposes say an average win is 300. Let us use GAMB as an average loss, which was about 4,000.

300 x 99 = 29,700

-          4,000 = 25,700 per 100 trades

Not bad at all to me!

1 of my biggest losses right now is MNDY , 75 shares at 140 = 5,250

Just to give you an idea. I do have near 40 bags right now, some I am not down to much on. I will look to sell 10-15 for tax loss purposes by years end.

 

Excellent earnings : RAMP

Very Good earnings: RNW

Good earnings: BRC

 

I will get up to 2 longs today, unless I sell a position. I am adding too many bags!

 

I sold 250 APPN from 18.90 to 19.75

I am in 500 shares of EPC 15.85

I am in 250 KMX 36.95

I am in 250 TREE 35.25

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. I always tell people as soon as they ask. The stock market is a live auction built on daily sentiment. I often get a question why is that stock going up? I want to invest in TESLA OPENAI SPACEX NIKE SHAK CBRS [New Ipo] .. These are just random names.. They ask me my opinion on them, they tell me these are going to go up, they are making money, the next generation…. I try to tell them the old myth is..

You invest in a company, the company grows sales, grows earnings and it will go up [ADBE TTD PYPL DUOL MNDY these are 5 random names where the companies have continued to grow sales, earnings and are at 3-5-10 year lows!] Just because you chose a company that is growing sales and earnings does not mean as a stock that is the one to buy! TSLA has not grown since 2023! It is sad to say but a stock is pure speculation! A stock price closed at a certain number, and the next day, that was simply a reference point! PLAIN AND SIMPLE! People try and say why a stock went up, went down…

It went up because there were more buyers than sellers…. It went down because there were more sellers than buyers. That is it! It is true, if a company has cash, makes cash they can do several things to make their stock attractive.

Buyback [Direct impact at the auction, they become bidders with way larger wallets than retail, this will also raise EPS and share count goes down]

They can use cash to pay down debt [They will raise earnings because of interest expense 99% of companies have debt!]

They can raise or pay a dividend [Investors/traders can say, wow I will get paid just to hold this]

They can do MA [Buy a business making money or attractive, amazing examples that everyone knows, Google bought Youtube, Did you know they have invested in SPACEX OPENAI and Anthropic ? Huge gains, they can sell them, buyback shares, dividend, pay down debt with invested cash]

They can do RD [Come out with new product]

They can advertise sign new contracts to boost sales/earnings

However, there is no set guarantee that company earns/or sells and then it will have a 20x , 25x, 40x, 60x or 100x…

The reason I use the pace of SPY VOO SP500 is because it is a basket of 500 of the best companies in the world. I didn’t say it, the world does…

So I use this to compare the companies I invest in.

For 2026 the SP500 companies together are expected to earn 300 dollars.

The SP500 is near 7,500….

This means we are trading at near 25x earnings!!! [Super duper high, the 2^(nd) most in history aside from 1999-2000 dot com bubble]

The companies are growing at 13% earnings and 9% sales..

Also, this is nothing anyone has taught me… It is not a rule… It is something I have used because I have been trading since the end of 1994!

So when I choose a company what I am looking at that day is:

Is it trading at 25x ? Is it growing earnings at 13% ? Sales at 9%?

If I am in ADBE current PE 10, the last quarter showed earnings growth near 20%, sales near 12%..... Should it not trade at way higher than 10x? That is exactly how I do it!

I use the name brand, cash flows, financials and my own DD to say it should be at least 16x.

23.55 [33 analysts] x 16x multiple = 376.80.. In my opinion it should be at least that price!

I am in 270 and 343…. So you see, sales, earnings etc mean 0! I am explaining this because I get these questions constantly, about many stocks… I wish there was an exact formula but the market is an auction!

 

I took a loss on GAMB at 3.75… My avg on 500 shares was about 10.50 . I must tax loss harvest to offset some gains…Someone was telling me a lot of DD about the company… yes, margins can increase, yes, maybe their MA to buy another company will pay off, but the company is and has been in the dog house! Meaning last year they grew sales and earnings at both 20% up! And were given a PE of like 20! That PE fell to 18, 16, 14, 12 etc.. and now the growth is negative, EPS is negative… unless you are TSLA GME you can not fool anyone! The story changed so I took the loss.. If they return to growth, I can revisit the company and see if the market has taken this out of the dog house. I am getting killed on PRGS DUOL MNDY TTD PYPL all names that the market once gave much higher multiples and the valuation makes no sense… This has worked for me greatly if you checked my research last year on:

NVDA

MU

AMD

SNDK

WDC

STX

For the same reasons on EPS, Sales and multiple I pounded the table on these names and traded them all… Well sadly, I had SNDK only once from 40 to 43.. That is it! I basically try and find great companies that the market is discounting… I may buy hot stocks but rarely!

So I hope this is valuable for someone.

 

I sold 250 KMX from 37 to 38.25.

I sold 500 GAMB at 3.75, took the loss 250 at 7.95 and 13.25

 

I will do up to 3 longs.

I am 1,000 OPRX 5.25

Good morning everyone. I will be buying the dip on WIX ! At open this will have a PE ratio of around 8-9x. That doesn’t always mean much. The stock market is a live auction. The big thing is that WIX actually bought back 17.5 million shares at an average price of 92!!! They used 1.6 billion! The company at open will be worth less than 4 billion! Now, I am not doing DD on cash flows, interest rates on loans etc, that is important, I am fairly busy, I said how this takes 60 to 90 mins. I am spending the 2-3 mins looking at the headlines. They are still looking for 10-15 growth. So my thought process is growth still near 15%, PE near 8, company still buying back shares, it has a lot of catalysts, but be careful bad earnings!

I may be buying TMDX ! Also worse than expected, but I am buying these in small scales, less than 1% of my portfolio! I may even buy some OPRX , also eh earnings yesterday… the thing is when a company is in the dog house and things turn they explode…

Most recently, check PENG , I just retweeted some of my stuff, in April it was just 16! Now 50+ . I retweeted many of my MU tweets. Do you know I was stuck in MU at 120 for 13 months! I watched it drop to 60! I was trading a 2^(nd) block as low as 80!

Yes, I would rather buy something with great sales, great earnings, hence when I report earnings, I no longer grade bad earnings! I used to give companies a 10 to 50!!! I highlight companies executing because there usually is momentum on the way up [not just the stock price, the company is executing] as well as downside. They almost always come hand in hand… I said for many months NBIS is a possibility buy the valuation already… I just tweeted my stuff from APLD saying how it was worth the risk reward because it was 4! Check! Now up 1,100% in a year. So I do see the growth in many names but your risk tolerance?

Look, I saw ASPN growth explosion, I was trading this 15 to 25… I was making nice gains.. the company stopped executing and I took the loss around 5.50, my avg was like 17? This was last year.. They hammered it for 4 quarters… then all of a sudden results hit the fan… and the valuation wasn’t even insane for what they were doing .[NBIS insane!] We must always follow a company every quarter. More recently I am getting annihilated on TTD and DUOL .. Both companies I bought as growth was decelerating but still above very good growth! Both! 20%

I view 20%+ growth in sales as very good.

Anything over 30% I classify as hyper growth.

The reason being the SP500 great companies grow sales at 10-20%.... So anything above the average great company is very good. 30% is hyper…

I expect every company to grow sales and earnings at 5-10%... if you are growing 5-10%, to me, you get a 65 score on your report card… You are supposed to be in the best 500 companies of the world… So my expectations are high.

The title has many companies I am watching. I will do up to 3 longs. WIX will be 1 of them.

 

I am in 250 shares of KMX at 37.

 

Excellent earnings:

FNV [Again]     PAYS [Tiny Wow]     NXT [Again]       BWAY [Tiny]      NBIS [Valuation]      EOSE [Wow may add to Plays]       TRMD [DD]

Good morning everyone. I have not done full proper DD after earnings on not 1 company. Just being honest. It takes a good 60 to 90 mins to check each individual company. I have checked the headlines on well over 1,000. Usually when headlines pop out at 1 company I will do the proper DD on it. You can get the information free at SEC edgar online. The company submits information there. When you read headlines they are biased by the writer/author, journalist. When you open an actual 10Q you are getting unbiased info submitted to the SEC. It is isn’t just checking overall sales, overall income. It is about checking margins, expenses, 1 time items. Financials, did they get better or worse, what are the interest rates on their loans? Are they wasting money on interest, can they raise money to pay off that old debt? Can they print shares for cash? Why were sales bad this quarter over last? So I compare quarter over quarter, then year over year… it is to dry and gauge. That takes a good 60 mins to go over the full 10Q, and compare…. Then I spend 30 mins checking insider activity, I check for the large owners, did they add, subtract to their position, why? I have not done that on any to be honest. I am so backed up with CT stuff. Evictions, repairs, acquisitions… I have no property manager. I have 30 properties and 110 units. I am hoping to close on a 3 property 11 unit deal the end of this month to early next month… So it is pretty much even more than a full time job. There are a lot of good deals on surface, like CELH . Those earnings on surface was tremendous, I didn’t do DD. So I am in 30.50, I also have 41.50. I have been trading SOFI last in 15.85, no DD….

I may buy the dip on PSIX no DD. HIMS surface looks bad! I have 250 at 32.25.. Oddly the company raised sales guidance for the year… Does that make sense? If you missed this quarter, but you see full year sales up, why, why not? These are things you need to dig into the report and see what the company has revealed to the SEC.

 

Some excellent earnings since yesterday on surface:

VG        TE [DD may add to Plays]      ESOA [Tiny]       PANL [Tiny]      HLIT       GDOT [Getting bought out]        HALO [Bio tech]

 

Very good earnings:

ZBRA        Q        SEPN      EIFZF       NVRI        HLIO        NGS       LIF       DSP      SPG     PLUG

 

Good earnings:

AG       ALLT       JD       SIBN

 

We must also pay attention to CPI inflation. The Fed was trying to get us closer to 2.5% [Historically we were at 2!] We just came in at 3.8%, this is year over year… So even a 0% inflation doesn’t mean things are getting cheap, it means that there is no rise over last year’s already inflated number! This Iran War has hiked Oil prices which will show up everywhere… Unemployment is rising again to 4.5% [Danger may be near 5%] Just things we need to pay attention to.

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. Momentum is real! We keep making record highs daily. We are having tremendous earnings and sales growth. I just don’t think that means we should trade over 20 to 21x. [300 x 20 or 21 which is 6,300 at most!] Yes, this is old school thinking, but I am old school. We should earn roughly 300 on the SP500 which is about 13-15% growth over 2025 which is definitely incredible and which is why I would even consider 21x.

Remember prior to the pandemic 2020, we didn’t trade above 18 to 19x. Ever since 0 commission trading, tons of retail, we are trading at highly elevated levels..

This is like people in real estate paying 25-50% high for the same property.

I usually try and make back my money in 6-8 years, which is like a 10% return… If people overbid and I can not make back the money I will let it go.

I still aim to make 400-500 per unit, after all expenses.

Example…. If I am buying a 4 family property, I would like to make about 1,600 to 2,000 a month in cash flows, this is without appreciation. I don’t want to make this complicated so let us not count repairs or capex..

Let us say 1,800 a month.

1,800 x 12 = 21,6000 per year

Let us say for this example we will use 7 years to make back my initial investment [No repairs, property is perfect shape, doesn’t happen, unless new, but for this example]

21,600 x 7 = 151,200

When I purchase a property I must put 25% down.

So that means this is a good deal as long as I do not pay over 600,000 for this 4 family.

151,200 x 4 = 604,800.

The stock market is like people paying 800,000 for this same property!

I have been doing stocks for 30+ years, real estate almost 10 years.

I am not paying over maybe

21,600 x 8 = 172,800 [This is 8 years to make back my money]

172,800 [25%] x 4 = 691,200 and that is if I love the property… because I will sit and wait rather than overbid…

My thoughts with the market! I am trading but I am going in very light right now. I used to buy 1,000 shares of something that traded at 50, regularly! I am now trading 250! I still and did aim for 200 to 600 per trade. I am just trading less and waiting. Last April, we did fall below fair value. We dipped to 4,800 and fair value was about 5,200. I was trading MU 80, AMD 80 and NVDA 90! Check here at Ultimatraders or on X. I was willing to take more positions as we were getting a deal… Now, the deals are hard to come by.. So be careful!

This doesn’t mean we will fall or crash, it means the risk reward is very high… momentum is strong and we can keep going but I am not chasing! My retirement is 100% vested all the time. I have mainly index funds SPY VOO DIA QQQ I also have about 10 long term positions like AAPL JPM GS GE [Spin offs received at split GEV GEHC] WMT HD . So just trade knowing the past.. Judge your risk tolerance.

 

Amazing earnings:

LINC        CEG [Impressive]        MNDY      LQDA [Wow again]        NESR [DD]

 

Very good earnings:

TUSK      UNIT [Adding to Earnings watch]         CRON       PRTH       VFF        B

 

Good earnings:

XGN         CEVA

 

I am in 500 shares of CHYM 18.50

I am in 250 shares of PINS 20.50

 

I will get up to 3 longs.

Great earnings from MNDY but definitely a slow down. Where do we decide the slow down is too much or not? What valuation makes sense?

Look at TTD 10x DUOL now like 35x or TMDX 30x where once upon a time all these names traded at 50-100x! I have always said I am not comfortable giving more than a 40x. If the market is on fire maybe 60x…. And now these names are getting crushed below 40! TTD near 10x!!! MNDY when the market opens will be in the low 20s, but it was in the dog house. I am in 100 shares at 140… I had traded a 2^(nd) block at 70 and below many times… I may wait for now…

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. I have to head to CT soon to meet some contractors. I am doing some massive renovations. Trying to narrow down who will get this big job. It is 125-150,000 and will likely start in 1-2 weeks. A massive porch and big roof, I just tweeted some videos of it. Was waiting for the warmer weather. So this will be short, the market is my true passion but the risk reward at these highs sucks.

The market is the market, it is a live auction built on daily sentiment, but if you have followed me or read me, by historical standards this is crazy! 23-25x…

Also, I am not defending TTD the earnings were not good, it showed a slow down in growth of just 12%, slowest, maybe ever.. but look, the SP500 SPY VOO is growing earnings at 13% and sales at 9% and trading at 23-25x…

TTD is growing at 12% and trades at 10x! Come on man! Earnings near 2 dollars. I am in 36 and 55. When I first purchased it growth was around 25%... law of sizes too, as we grow in size it is hard to beat comps. Can this get 20x? or 40 bucks and I take a loss on my whole position? Dog house like PRGS !

Good morning everyone. Came back pretty late yesterday. I did share some videos. I did get 1 unit back from an eviction…  court is giving a tenant more time on another eviction. I am in court all the time, this happens as you expand. I am going back Friday to sign a contract on a huge renovation, near 125 to 135,000. This is for a roof and a back porch on an 8 unit building. It is actually my largest single property for now. I am also closing on a 3 property 11 unit deal in 4-5 weeks that I have to get a lot of documents ready for. I have no help, no property manager. I have 3 groups of contractors, who have workers, it is probably about 10 people. I have about 110 units and 30 properties in Northwest Connecticut. I am trying to build a large 50-75 unit building next year. When this is built, I will have a super then, I will first see how that super does with tasks there and may give him more responsibilities and pay him as such. He cant just manage, he actually must do simple repairs too. Change lights, faucets, switch brakers, change outlets, do snow, lawns etc…

 

I have a lot I have to take care of so this will be short.

I cant believe EVER ! like 60% and I sold Monday at 15! Valuation was low, they did revise up. SLQT super fire, didn’t do DD on earnings but was worth the dice roll. I also have EHTH for this same reason, down on it. I may add like 4-5 names to plays but been so busy. PLTR earnings was tremendous! I have a small position in PLTD , it is just the valuation is ridiculous. Even at 60x it is fair about 85 to 90. I rarely pay over 40x. I am old school. For this reason AMD is way too high for me at the moment. Earnings were great, 0 problems with it, but valuation to me. I will do up to 3 longs. I am watching dips on PRIM UPST TMDX they all had bad earnings, I didn’t do full DD, careful! KVYO dip also, great earnings!

 

I am up on 250 shares of TREE 40

I am up on 100 shares of INSP 47

I am up on 250 shares of KMX 37.25

I am up on 250 shares of PYPL from yesterday 44.75 [I also have shares at 54.50 and 59.50 smaller blocks]

I sold 2000 shares of SLQT from 1.10 to 1.20, wasn’t the plan but it dropped to like 60 cents!

 

Good luck! Have to run!

Good morning everyone. Spent a lot of time on earnings. I must get ready for court. Need to be in CT by 9:30. It is 7am.

In 100 INSP 47

 

I will get up to 3 longs but will be in and out with court.

Not surprised with GME . I have said for 5+ years that Ryan is really dumb and a tool. Adam with AMC may be a snake, but he is much smarter. Wow EVER flies after I sold. STRL rips again, years ago I had this under 50! Sad! PLTR earnings tremendous but valuation. Maybe this is worth 60x earnings which is like 85? DUOL awesome earnings, but indeed slowing down. If you gave this near 40x earnings this would be near 125. I am in 165 sadly.

 

Have to run!

 

Good morning everyone. A big earnings week is coming! So just a couple of excellent earnings this AM [95 score and above] :

Good earnings this AM [75 score] :

Friday was an amazing day for me, and I wasn’t even in NY or CT! I came back from seeing my girlfriend in Colorado. She was called in to work in 2023. She was working remotely before that. She is a coder. Hence, I am thinking of buying a house or condo in Boulder, CO.

I really don’t have goals with trading. I try and make 100K a year from trading. Or 2K a week.. There are about 250 trading days a year, or 400 a day. I do have a good amount of capital, I am trading with a small portion of it. Also, I am slowing moving money into Real Estate. I will not leave the market, but at these levels the risk reward is high. I am looking to close a 3 property 11 unit deal at the end of this month. I am still doing a lot of renovations.

 

Friday’s trades:

I sold 250 shares of CLMB 16.05 to 17.25 [300]

I sold 250 shares of CNXC 23.50 to 24.50 [250]

I sold 250 shares of IOT 28.25 to 30.25 [500]

I sold 500 shares of SAIL 11.50 to 12.25 [375]

I sold 10 shares of NOW 88 to 92 [400]

Trades [1,825]

I am in 250 shares of TREE 40

I am in 100 shares of LULU 134

 

I am glad we can now witness the stock market, the open market first hand. What I am writing is not a conspiracy. It is fact, you can check Google, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or even GROK . GME has raised 6-7 billion dollars since 2020 meme. It has not, as a business made money. They have only been profitable because of treasuries they have bought with the cash. [So the business is dilute, shaft retail for cash, because my business sucks, let me close down stores, lower expenses, dilute more so I can figure out a business plan] PLEASE CHECK! Elon is kind of doing this as well! The numbers do not make sense, please check the CNBC interview today. So if GME offers all its cash under 10 billion, all of its stock around 10 billion….. has a 20 billion loan from TD that is 40 billion….. Simple math!

Where is 56 billion?

Ryan slipped up and said dilution!! Wake up people! If the stock goes up, he will  shaft to get the money to buy EBAY!! COME ON MAN!

Now the good thing is Ebay is a real company, a real business plan, and definitely 1 of the biggest, most attractive online market places.. Sure it can be managed better..

I do not know if Ryan would be bad for Ebay, maybe he may even be good… I don’t know, but I know the math isn’t mathing! He can only buy Ebay with insane dilution! More bonds etc….

Maybe long term it would be good? But no one knows, including me…but what I do know now is that GME is a cesspool as it is, Ebay is a real company, maybe he can pull off this move, but it will be massive dilution!

 

I will get up to 3 longs.

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. Will be headed back to NYC over the weekend. Have to head to CT Sunday. Some amazing earnings from those companies in the title and then the horrible numbers from RBLX . RBLX has not been profitable since ipo nearly 5 years ago, it is no where near it, still! Trash! Can't believe it was 150 within the last 52 weeks.

I did make some moves yesterday.

I sold 250 CALX from 41 to 42.50

I sold 500 LC from 16.25 to 17

I am in 250 CNXC 23.50

I am in 250 CLMB 16.05

I am in 250 IOT 28.25

I am in 500 EVER 14.60

Tons of earnings, I hope everyone is having an amazing earnings season. Good luck!

Good morning everyone. Will be headed back to NY over the weekend. We should go out, touch some grass, enjoy the world, as long as we are able to, if we have freedom. Money comes and goes, can be made again. Health, family and time are priceless.... they cant be bought!

Those big 4 had incredible earnings LLY CAT too! Naturally with AI and all the advanced technologies coming at a fast pace these monsters will spend more than ever. That is very good for chip leaders like NVDA AMD ASML TSM and even INTC .

It has been incredible for memory makers WDC STX SNDK and MU ... sad I had all the memory names. Tons of earnings but im enjoying life out west with an important lady.. Who was transferred at her job, in 2023 out west. I try and visit her like 5-6x a year and hopefully with tenure she can transfer to a New Jersey location in a year or two.

I did get my 3 longs yesterday and I could have bought more!

I am in 500 shares of SOFI 16

I am in 500 shares of LC 16.25

I am in 100 shares of NOW 88

Good luck everyone!

Good morning everyone. Wow some earnings! I will be willing to add up to 3 longs, still on vacation so doing many other things but may make a few trades.

Yesterday

Sold 100 shares of WLDN 70.20 to 71, definitely wasnt the plan but saw it at 64 same day!

In 500 share of SAIL 11.50

In 250 shares of CALX 41

Earnings season full swing, best time to add tickers to watchlist. Next week when I have more time I will definitely look to adjust my lists.

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. Away from NY and Connecticut until this weekend. If I make moves I will post here and on X. Huge earnings season but not going to spend alot of time on the market while I am away.

I did trade 100 NOW from 88 to 90.50

I also sold 100 ROOT from 56 to 58, was stuck months!

I am in 100 shares of WLDN at 70.20, didn't check any dd

I will get up to 3 longs, I have unloaded many bags the past 10 days.

$bbby is on fire, just remember this is not the same company that went bankrupt. This is formally Overstock dot com. They purchased the name for 21.5 million in bankruptcy auction because it was a popular name. They also changed their symbol 2 times from.

$ostk

$byon

And finally they took the old $bbby

Meaning careful of memes!

$CAR was 850 and now 184 in a week!

Good luck

If I do make a trade. I will post here of course.

Anyone is welcome to share ideas too, as always.
