senkoi : I am short selling.
I was surprised. I understand.
It's still around 20% in the positive, so I will observe quietly.

fujikenner : It will drop more next week.

181629116 OP senkoi : If the presidential election becomes turbulent, you may continue to sell, but if the results calm down, there is a possibility of a quick rebound, fearing significant losses and immediately buying back a pattern. The performance of nvidia itself is excellent, so I think selling is high risk.

181629116 OP : Well, it's not just short selling, but also the overlapping sell orders from individual investors, so it's a tug-of-war taking that into account. The temperature and weather for today and tomorrow may be off, but looking at long-term climate change, it's unlikely to drop in a few years even if it temporarily drops today or tomorrow.

181629116 OP : There seems to be a movement to find reasons for selling, including profit-taking, as it has risen somewhat since September.

181629116 OP 181629116 OP : If a certain level of selling pressure is relieved, there is a risk that it may rise sharply due to the unwinding of short sells and put options, making it difficult to move both in buying and selling scenarios.

181629116 OP : In conclusion, if you are already a hodler, it seems best to do nothing as Jim Cramer suggests.

181629116 OP : Well, in my experience, even though short-term trades may occasionally result in wins, as the number and quantity of trades increase, individuals often end up losing significantly. Institutional investors, who are counterparts to individual investors, utilize algorithms including AI. Therefore, I believe that individual investors do not have a great chance of winning against institutional investors in terms of win rates in short-term trades. However, at the current stage, AI and algorithms cannot predict the future for the mid to long term. From a mid to long-term perspective, institutional investors do not have much advantage and, on the contrary, I think institutional investors are at a disadvantage compared to individual investors when it comes to the need to do something in the short term for fund investors' reports.

181629116 OP : After the spike post-COVID, we hear that there are many institutions and short-selling funds that have incurred great losses and gone bankrupt by taking excessive risks. They are in quite a tough business as well. If we can imagine a future where AI will revolutionize the way society functions for many years to come, there is no reason to sell nvidia now. I believe that institutions that come in with mechanical and speculative risks through AI and algorithms for short-term gains are at a very high risk of getting completely burnt.
