So your strategy there is to cash out the original investment and leave the profits or cash out the profits and leave the original?

Yeah, makes sense to take out the original investment and leave the profits. Then you're playing on free money.

I set a threshold at 20% because I'm lazy, but if I had a little more initiative I'd set up a system where I sold the original investment once I got to the point of a 25% annualized return. If you do that, you can take advantage of random small spikes early in the ownership period.

We were just kicking it around, talking pros and cons.

The big pro to me is developing a portfolio of company's you actually believe in.
Minimizing losses and removing the emotional factor is also important.

We talked about using the fixed percentage OR having a specific exit strateg.

IE If I buy NVDA because I know they are going to kill it in the second quarter because their new graphics card is redefining the market, I sell after the earnings announcement is digested. If I buy it because of their potential growth into the automated driving market, I may establish a long-term hold strategy - or just buy long-term call options. In the case of NVDA I did both. However, I got antsy on my long-term call position after it had basically gained 250% on the value of it. That option would now be worth over 6 times my initial investment. But I am happy just to have raked some gains, even if I gave some up because I am a nervous nelly.

My problem is I feel like any thing I throw at a stock is just throw away money anyway. My bread and butter is real estate. that's why I have a hard time with stocks.

Interesting strategy. Thanks for sharing that.

I am rather new to actually purchasing individual stocks but have researched for quite a while. After pumping my 401k and Roth IRA, it's taken a while to want to use extra money for more investing. Individual stocks still make me rather nervous. lol

So how did you Hog Farmer invest that money. I got 45 dollars I got left over from the end of the month with my solid budgeting. It was a struggle, but every day I only ate out of the vending machine 4 times.

Hog Farmer, I hope you've been investing in Neuromama. And then sold it yesterday.

Dude, you've listed some stocks you've purchased that have had some nice recent runs. I am impressed. You need to start sharing these earlier!!!

Can you guys tell me who you use for online brokerage accounts? I can't remember if we've discussed that.
