How does one know when to stop? Do you set a $goal or a %goal?
Greediness always gets me burned.
In September, I should have moved out on 9/24 when I had recovered most of the losses.
I stayed too long until 9/30 hoping for more recovery(?) and ended with a loss of $19K.
In November, I already made $10K in gains, but stayed and now down to $4.8K gains.

Maricar19, same here. The good thing is I have had 7 positive months and 3 negative months. My three worst months almost equals my best month ($19,102.77). Can't complain so far. But we still have 2 months to go. :eek:
Knock on wood - so far and I hope to remain this way, September was my only negative month.
 
For the past 20 years, there were only 3 years when C and S Funds were negative and there is a very good probability that 2021 will be a positive one..

Yes. I grabbed 100 shares a couple of weeks ago just to keep an eye on it. Unfortunately I paid 73.43. :eek:

I put a "limit" for $52.00 until today. I have increased it to $58.92 today, hoping DWAC will open at $58. Unfortunately, it opened at $59.71.
 
Big 17 month breakout to new all time highs.


My better half has been an employee there since 95. Buys stock every 2 weeks and WMT adds 15%, add in the dividend reinvest she's a very happy person. This and her 401K is her pension.
