Lots of free to play online sites . They will give you fake money to learn with hopes you will try real $$ later

Everyone needs to know the basics of blackjack , roulette and craps!

Meme stocks summed up in one day: GME drops to $74, gets all the way back to $140, basically gives it all back by the end of the day.

What happens if Lucid falls through, or goes with a different SPAC?

Having some major FOMO after selling my APHA and WEED 3 weeks ago. Sold APHA at 12.83 for 108% gain and my WEED at 41.00 for 168% gain, but they keep going up. Unsure of whether to get back into APHA and see it through the merger with TLRY or not. A little tougher of a decision after a +17% day.

Don't regret taking a profit. If you think the price is high, sell and move on. Worrying about the fact that it went even higher will only introduce emotions to the process. Which is NEVER a good thing.

Greed and fear only lead to bad decisions.

All three of my "but it could keep going!!" holds this year have resulted in smaller returns than cashing out as per my strategy.

Yup, I have targets on my option trades now as it is easy to get caught up in it can only go up. Rode a few to +50-100%, held on and closed +25 to breakeven or a loss.

I personally don't get too bothered if I could have made more money as I flip it into something else. I get more annoyed if I hold on and get hit with opportunity cost even if I close higher at the end of the day, way worse if I close down less than the high.

If you get more annoyed by missing out on gains, have a profit target and scale out. 25% at 50%, 75%, 100%, and 125% etc.

Take the hit and move on. Try not to be the last one out.

Hi, I'm sending you this private message so you could hopefully chare your system with me. I'm new to stonks and have already lost my house to GME and after selling a kidney I have enough capital to try and earn it back. Do you recommend AMC? Thanks.

PS: Please keep this between you and I.

I bought some DT as well. It has gone up over $50 after earnings. Are you looking at getting out at around 55 or is it a longer term hold for you?

Sold a bitcoin fund today...creeping up again and want to get out before another potential dip. Will sell my other one if it is up again tomorrow.

Might buy very.cn today, looks like they are bouncing back nicely.

Not sure what to do about AMCI...what is everyone else doing with this one?

My target price is $55, if it gets there I'm out but do think it's a solid long-term hold.

NAKD is having a nice bounce-back day but I'm still down overall. Thinking about selling at a 45% loss but finding it hard not to just hold and wait for a larger recovery - even if it takes awhile.

Why are you bearish on BTC? I hold some BTC funds and they haven't been great. I also hold BTC - part of me wants to sell off the funds at a small return and hold the BTC.

Just sold mine, i got in really low and made a profit but not as good as it could of been. I dont trust it at all so took the advice on here and be happy with the profits. If it drops below a dollar again i might rebuy

Feels like the run is over on these gimmicks so pretty reluctant to buy in on any of them right now
