One cannot go back in time, but one can learn lessons by reviewing the events of the past, to better handle similar situations which may happen in future.[Eye] [Eye]
For pcwSg's time warp, only focusing on 1 big loss and 1 missed opportunity.
Biggest Loss
Biggest loss last year was in chasing $VinFast Auto(VFS)$ , with many positive news released and strong potential, was sure that the stock would rebound, but it never did.
Lost a total of nearly US$2000 by buying short dated calls, hoping they would pay out.
At the current point in time, all of them have expired worthless [Facepalm] [Facepalm]
Have already accepted the loss and moved on from this symbol, lesson learnt is to control position sizing and not allocate too much money into low probability set-ups.
Missed Opportunity
One strong symbol this year is $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ .[666] [666]
NVDA has tripled in price from the opening price of 148.51 at the start of the year.[USD] [USD]
Should have stocked up on NVDA shares or traded NVDA calls more for decent profits this year.
Summary
Have learnt much from these 2 significant events this year, hope to be able to allocate funds better in future and be able to take actions when opportunity arises. [Victory] [Victory]
Comments
I also lost a lot of money on VinFast Auto at that time.
VinFast Auto’s good news is a scam
It is indeed a pity to miss NVDA
