This is completely batshit crazy. Might as well do a raindance while you're at it. I'm in. BB it is

If it will help anyone sure: When I first started I had massive unrealized gains and sold for 60k profit from like 3k purchase. Next day same trade was worth over 800k. I suppose that’s really where it started. I cursed myself for selling too early. One such example was FB leaps 6-9 months before expiry and I sold them when it had a decent bump but it really exploded. Same thing happened w a few others. After I saw RK hit hard on his leaps I was 1000% convinced of the solution. More leaps HODL. Diamond hands. Tendies .

I like this point. People have not pulled themselves up by the bootstraps if they’re still paying a premium for people to do very basic tasks 🤦‍♂️

He bought AFTER dfv, in fact dfv calls got a lot of upside after the news of burry buying and he roundtriped everything, also Michael burry sold in late december or early January missing big gains (he did make some gains though)

Michael Burry responded to my craigslist ad looking for someone to mow my lawn. "$30 is $30", he said as he continued to mow what was clearly the wrong yard. My neighbor and I shouted at him but he was already wearing muffs. Focused dude. He attached a phone mount onto the handle of his push mower. I was able to sneak a peek and he was browsing Zillow listings in central Wyoming. He wouldn't stop cackling. That is to say, Burry has his fingers in a lot of pies. He makes sure his name is in all the conversations. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Diamond hands is only a good strategy when you have picked solid assets to hodl, like bitcoin, gold or QQQ. Diamond handsing dog turds is for people who hold the chart upside down.

OP please tell us how this fucking happened as a warning to us all….. what on earth happened?

It never fails to amaze me how many people on here have no clue what a bid or an ask (the density of either) or liquidity is. They see a price jump and figure that everyone holding that stock could now sell at this price... Oooor "diamond hands" the price even higher. They waste their life savings not even taking the time to understand what is going on at all.  Diamond hands was a term coined years ago to keep victims steady while performing the pump part of a "pump and dump". Makes the whole ordeal a lot easier because no/less stop losses set. Even better when people start "averaging down" whilst the dump sell off is happening.  And the WSB culture has taken over the term in classic masochistic fashion. Anyhow. Good loss porn. Thank you for playing. Come again!

Invested 16k. Went up. The experience of not selling up 500k last cycle still twists my stomach. I was nestled in my illusion of ‘I’ll sell at 3M’. Sold at 42k. Then put it into a ‘safe bet’ that then tanked to 6k.  Worked it back to 80k now but I need to focus on my patients. And now I work with money on my mind. I didn’t before. I would have been somewhat freer of that being 500k up. Who knows, had I sold at my experience of a top, where it would be with more funds available to the opportunities I scrape for now.  ! Had I known !
