because most people only share their wins to rub it in here are my biggest losses so far to show that I'm not winning all the time or that I'm some kind of guru or expert trader that never loses markets go up and down all the time the important thing here is correct position size, and risk management. let us remember that the first loss will always the smallest lose to continue holding to a losing position only adds to the pain and doubt about our abilities. its best to live to trade anoth...

Thank you for your honest sharing. Thank you for making me feel I am normal and it is normal to not have good days. As long as these companies are still earning, I think we are safe.

I am also a big loser, just recently lost more than half of my positions in ionq and qbet after Jansun Huang made a comment about Quountom computer.

yes guys we all know it's hard and painful when we lose big time. but also take that as a learning lesson specially when it comes to diversification and position sizing. in the early days of my trading adventures I would routinely get wiped out and suffered morally for days or weeks to come. now a days I only invest about 3 to 5 percent of my portfolio and if I lost the whole position is no big deal because I know I still have other chances of coming back, granted my earnings are not as big as I would like but are consistent and my account continues to grow, all the best to all and may your future hold fruitful rewards.

I sold my second naked calls ever on quantum tickers last week (the first time was only a single contract, and while I had very high conviction, it wasn’t to the point of feeling that “I know,” and so risky that, well, one contract was a fine start. I did have the highest level of conviction that quantum stocks would correct, hugely and soon. Still sold extra time for obvious reasons. The only “new” idea I had going into the New Year with any confidence. I’m happy it worked out, of course, because the opposite would have been very not good. I’m so sorry for others, however. It was odd, as I mentioned, commented, shared the trade and spoke of the correction in a Moo Moo Livestream. And there was only one single response that considered essentially what Huang said possible, and many others who disagreed, most vehemently, some angrily and a few in an ugly fashion. Also, I explained my reasoning (same as Sir Jensen’s, but also others,) and it seemed that those in disagreement had none. I should think that a few hours of reading on the technology and examination of valuations and other fundamentals would have prompted caution at the least? I feel bad that the trade worked, but also, wish I saw more reasoning behind strong conviction trades from others. Unless trading purely junk pennys with TA, these things do matter, I think.

I was looking at Jensen Huang’s presentation, and honestly, it got me thinking about how far AI has come and where it’s headed. Here’s my take on it: 1. Perception AI This is where AI started. Things like speech recognition, medical imaging, and recommendation systems. Remember AlexNet in 2012? That’s what kicked everything off. It laid the groundwork for all the cool stuff we’re seeing today. 2. Generative AI This is where we’re at now. AI is all about...
