Great technical analysis! 

Always for the win. Not always a win🤩

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Of course aim to make money, but sometimes can break even is lucky.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$  

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ trade to make money better than saving in bank

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ the main goal to trade is to make profits. If a trade is not going your way, it does not mean the trade is wrong. Close the trade and take a loss if the rules you took to open the trade no longer applies. Waiting to break even to close might not come in a very long time and the money could be used in another trade.

Yes the ultimate goal is to have  winning trades for investors and traders. However, it is always not as easy as it seems to be...however prepared you are... Stock analysis and technical analysis can assist with the decisions made but the datas are mostly historical and technical analysis are just tools to assist in the decisions made... Stock market performance is dynamic and that the stocks may go in a certain direction counter to the analysis. So my two cents worth is that we must always trade with caution and not be greedy to over 'indulge' with money that we do not have in hand. Trade with caution and if possible do dollar cost averages whenever possible in steps that can be managed. I always do this whenever there is an opportunity to do so... So in summary, yes I do DCA and di

**Strategic Approach to Minimizing Losses** While many investors enter the stock market with the goal of making a profit, the reality of market fluctuations often leads to a shift in focus towards simply breaking even. This approach isn't about abandoning the pursuit of profits, but rather about adapting to market conditions and protecting capital, especially when faced with the unpredictability of market corrections or personal missteps. A strategic way to manage this is by using options and dividends to create a cushion against potential losses.$Manulife(MFC)$ $MFC 20240621 19.0 PUT$  **Covered Call Strategy for Steady Returns** One effective method I've employed is buying stable

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Trade in stock is to make money, generally is to invest in company's that gives good return in dividends than putting money in bank for that tiny interest. Breaking even to protect your principal is a way to reinvest in stock with better potential. No one wants to lose money .

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ It's the only stock other than $Virgin Galactic(SPCE)$ that I had the biggest loss. Nonetheless Tiger Broker stock is always 20-40cent in play. It's great for day trader. well I did recoup some losses from studying the trend. NFA

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$  There is always something to worry about .. Your success as an investor depends on your ability to ignore the worries of the world long enough to allow your investments to succeed.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Hahaha... of is making money, the initial and ultimate objective, but sometimes or many Times, we did not perform or the market did not perform as we wish. So to speak, when we are fear, break even is better losses. Do u agree guys 😜💸💰💵 

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ I've been thinking about this whole "breaking even" mentality that seems to creep up on many of us. It's like we're playing a game of limbo, trying to get our stocks just high enough to avoid the dreaded red numbers. But let's be honest: who just wants to break even? Isn't the whole point of investing to make a killing? Investors start with dreams of yachts and private islands. But then reality kicks in, and they’re like, “Maybe just a paddleboat and a sandbar?” Suddenly, breaking even becomes the Everest of financial goals. 🏔️ Suggestions for Sanity: Breathe — It’s just money. Unless you’re Scrooge McDuck, in which case, swim away! Diversify — Like a buffet—try a bit of everything. Stocks, bonds, unicorn tears. Lea

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$  I've been reflecting on my journey as an investor, and it's interesting how my goals have evolved over time. Initially, like many others, I started trading stocks with the clear objective of making a profit. However, as I gained more experience and faced the realities of the market, I noticed a shift in my focus towards just breaking even at times. Several factors contributed to this change: 1. Market Volatility (or manipulation???): The unpredictable nature of the stock market has often challenged my strategies. During market corrections or downturn experienced in early August 2024, my priority shifted to minimizing losses rather than chasing gains. 2. Psychological Factors: The fear of losing money can be quite powerf

Great technical analysis! 

Scott Rubner, a global markets managing director at Goldman Sachs specializing in capital flows, noted that over the past month, systematic funds, which buy stocks based on market signals and volatility rather than company fundamentals, have massively sold off US stocks, hitting a four-year high in dollar terms.But now, the market has calmed down. Goldman Sachs pointed out that the VIX, known as the "fear index", is trading around 15, and economic data shows that the Federal Reserve may be close to achieving a soft landing, and systematic funds are expected to buy U.S. stocks again.Barclays strategists also wrote in a report to clients on Monday: "If the market stabilizes and the data gets better, funds may increase buying pressure more significantly."Take volatility control funds, whose p

Most investors starts stock trading to make a profit, but during actual operations, many investors may gradually shift their focus to breaking even. However, the stock market doesn’t always go as planned, especially when facing market corrections or personal operational mistakes, which may lead to losses.For example, for tigers who bought $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ at $140, breaking even is still the main goal despite recent rebound.The mindset of trying to break even often influences investors' decisions, possibly leading them to adopt more conservative strategies or engage in frequent trading during periods of loss in an attempt to quickly recoup their losses. For example, some tigers bought the put options when the stock plunged and incurred more loss

Hi everyone. Today I’ll be updating my TA on a really exciting stock: Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL) CCL has been trading in a bullish megaphone pattern with higher highs and lower lows… since 1997! It broke out of the 2017 resistance trendline (in red) in Jun’23, and has since traded in a series of higher highs and higher lows in the short-term. The weekly chart shows us the short-term bullish pattern that is taking place. Notice the ascending channel (in green) that has been playing out, as well as the ascending triangle coiling pattern with equal highs at 19.46 and higher lows. The Stochastic oscillator completed a bullish crossover with this week’s close, signalling a move higher in the coming weeks. Minimally, I’m expecting CCL to fill the 18.16-18.18 bearish gap and come back into

Whether you are an experienced investor or just starting to explore the market, you may have your own “revenge trading” story—a moment when emotions dominated your decisions, leading to less-than-ideal results.We've all been there: when you're in a difficult situation, staring at the screen, determined to recover what you've lost. The market becomes your opponent, and you're ready to do whatever it takes to win back your pride and money.The Classic Tale of Chasing Losses One investor shared a story of bouncing back from a $10,000 loss to a $2,000 profit, only to lose $6,000 in two days by doubling down on $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ put options. This is a typical tale of chasing losses, driven by a strong desire to recover quickly, but often

Always for the win. Not always a win🤩

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ If you are trading to break even you mite as well give up and put your money in a bank account. Yes as investors we all make mistakes in hindsight, so sometimes cutting your losses is a necessary but deeply uncomfortable thing to do. But realising losses is hopefully a learning experience... what did you do wrong and how will you avoid a repeat. With stock investing knowledge is power, and that power leads to profit. be an information sponge, soak up everything but be highly critical, just because someone has done a fancy DFC on a stock and it looks impressive, it's probably not. As an emotional investor of course I look at the past of a stock and in some cases like $Realty Income(O)$ P

In 2022, PepsiCo invested $550 million in Celsius for an 8.5% ownership stake, at a market cap of approximately $7 billion. Celsius currently has a market cap of about $9.4 billion. These partnerships enable the younger brands to leverage Coca-Cola and Pepsi's extensive distribution networks, allowing them to reach the market much faster than they could on their own. Meanwhile, the established beverage giants benefit by avoiding the need to develop their own energy drink brands, instead backing products that have already demonstrated traction. It's a win-win partnership for both sides Energy drink stocks, Monster Beverage (NASDAQ: MNST) and Celsius (NASDAQ: CELH), have both struggled in the year to date and over the past 12 months. Monster has declined 20% YTD and 18% over the past year. H

It was mid-July 2024, and I was riding high on the success of my investments. QQQ, the ETF that tracks the Nasdaq-100, had been performing exceptionally well, and I felt invincible. But then, the market took a sharp turn. From July 12th to August 5th, QQQ plunged by about 14%. My portfolio, once a source of pride, now felt like a sinking ship. I remember staring at my screen, watching the red numbers flash, feeling a mix of disbelief and frustration. How could this happen? Determined to recover my losses, I decided to engage in what I now recognize as revenge trading. The market had become my opponent, and I was ready to do whatever it took to win back my pride and money. Every day, I would wake up early, analyzing charts and news, looking for any sign of a rebound. My emotions were runnin

5 Rules we are strict about  1. Be greedy for support confirmation Everyone wants to buy a position before it breaks out, in the hope that it goes rocketing higher, this is what the masses do Smart Money will only start a large position once the breakout level has been converted to a Support level, this is where risk is at its lowest. 2. Never chase a stock. If a stock has jumped 20-30%, you've missed it, you either wait for the pull back or move on to the next one and there is always another one waiting. 3. Think Long Term. Short term views are full of noise, understanding the fundamentals and the technical long term set up will always paint a clearer picture. 4. Don't play the Earnings Game. You may get lucky once or twice but there is no way to eliminate your risk leading up to ear

Most of us, the retail investors, enter the arena with the intention of making good money in the stock market. We get more information on the fundamentals, risks vs returns, market dynamics, investors sentiment and take the plunge with optimistic goals. Eventually, we discover that the individual strategy will not always make money the way we want and struggle to break even at hard times. I believe and do have a long term strategy on many solid stocks, but also trade at hot and cold points of the other half volatile stocks. I do follow Mark Howard advice “Buy the market hate and sell People love” when you have reasons to do so. Happy Investing! Stay long , Stay strong!
