You made a profit, no self-kicking allowed. Otherwise Old Man Mikestew is going to tell us stories about how he rode $STOCK all the way up, didn't sell, and rode it all the way back down to where he bought it, and then watched it dip below that. (Please note that "stories" is plural; slow learner, he is.)
Don't be like me: never, never, never, never feel bad about selling shares for a profit. Sell it, go one about your day (IOW, quit looking at $STOCK, you don't own it anymore), take the spouse/SO out for a nice dinner if you made some serious bank.
Which reminds me that now might be a good time to unload that NVDA I've been holding. I'm not completely unteachable.
- cinntaile 3y agoJust don't unload all of them. In case the stock goes bananas for whatever reason.
- mikestew 3y agoWhat I'm really going to do is put a trailing stop[0] on it in case it does continue to go bananas, and the stop can catch it on the way back down in case the banana scenario doesn't happen. :-) [0] Somewhat oversimplified for discussion purposes.
