Lessons Learned:
1. Research 🔬is Key: Thorough research and staying updated with market trends have been crucial in making informed trading decisions. Long term observation of the company and research on its fundamentals and geopolitical effects are equally important.
2. Stay Disciplined: It's easy to get swayed by market movements, but sticking to your strategy and managing risks are vital for long-term success.
3. Learn from Mistakes: Every trade, whether profitable or not, is a learning opportunity. Reflect on what worked and what didn’t to improve your future trades. (Setting stop loss was a lesson I hoped I started earlier. Bought $AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$ at 25 and it dropped to 3 soon after . Did covered calls to slowly earn back until the recent stunt )
