I have been waiting to get into $Apple (AAPL.US)$ for a while now but the pullback has not really happened in a meaningful way. Missed a few opportunities in the earlier months but decided to dive in earlier this week.I felt the time was right and the EV hype seemed to have returned of late with Tesla and others. I did not want to miss the boat when AAPL announces the Apple car and so I bought in at $148.
Come on, 🍎 🚘!!! 💪🏼

Been a rocky few weeks for the stock market. Here are a few of my trading highlights.
Firstly, let's talk about the wins!
$Tesla (TSLA.US)$ 's price action has been explosive, with the stock price breaking $1100. This has certainly be a profitable play. The question now is whether this has more room to run.
$Camber Energy (CEI.US)$ was a fantastic pick for my casual day-trading ventures, especially on days where the volume was massive. What's important is knowing when to take profit - the 15% rule worked well for me here!
$Apple (AAPL.US)$ has always been a safe option, but it never fails to be profitable, or at least it hasn't failed me yet!
Now, the losses!
Chinese EV: Was going smooth up till $NIO Inc (NIO.US)$ disappointed with deliveries. Though unfortunate, it is understandable as they are doing their R&D. Yet, it still sucks as it has harmed the general sentiment even after a great run up. I'll be holding for now. Hopefully we see a nice run up to NIO day.
Chinese Fintech: This has to be the most volatile of the bunch. Regulatory concerns have caused $Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU.US)$ and $UP Fintech (TIGR.US)$ to fall in what seems to be a bottomless pit. Thank goodness there's some clarity now with the new regulations being released, and I do hope that dust will settle soon. Have been averaging down at these super cheap prices.
Paypal and Pinterest saga: I FOMO-ed into $PayPal (PYPL.US)$ when they announced that they were cancelling their acquisition of $Pinterest (PINS.US)$ . What I failed to take into account was that this was very reflective of the poor management of this entire situation on Paypal's end. Hopefully earnings will save this play.
And that's a wrap for my trading highlights!

Something that my dad had adviced when I started investing. Being a beginner, it is easy to hear of the rumours that certain stock are going to the moon very soon. Always, always do your research on the company. Listen to others take and opinions on it and collate them to churn out your own perspective. Also, do not take loan or borrow money just to invest. Invest within your own means, so that when the market goes down, you do not incur debt. Sincerely, from a fellow student small investor. ...

My #1 Trading Rules:
Remember:
1. you don't gain the $ until you sell.
2. you don't lose the $ until you sell.
3. So if your stock is in the green, capture your gain!
4. And if your stock is in the red, don't panic, hold it until it's green. (unless you're sure it's not going to come back.
