After my profitable in-the-money calls went from $4K profit to $4K loss when I looked away for a few seconds (that's what it felt like) and just about everything else got sold hitting stop loss, I'm going back to just do paper trading and read some books. New capital gains tax proposal has already damaged my small portfolio LOL. Best of luck to you, guys!

Capital gains tax plan - they say it won't pass the Congress. I'm not so sure. May pass House. Senate may force a compromise which could be worse - OK, no 39.9% just for 'rich' people but how about 25% for everyone? That's more fair and equitable, isn't it?

So what's next? Stock transaction tax? That will get money from everyone, rich or poor.

Already tanked mine, and I am not 'wealthy'.

Just wait till they re-define "wealthy".

EV companies I'm watching are all up (RIDE, NIO, NKLA, XL, HYLN etc), except TSLA. Interesting.

Sooo..today's like buy anything with the stop at today's low?

Meme stocks seem to be back for the day. MOON outperforming ARKK. MVIS ripping.

LOL... pulled a Matt...

AMZN hit in sympathy.

It's more like "amazingly _________" (fill the blank). One good thing is AAPL stock almost touched 9EMA on the daily, so there may be a support there.

One of the zoomers at wsb subreddit commented, "Did Steve Jobs die for this?" on Mission Impossible-esque stunt video featuring Tim Cook.

Totally cringe-worthy presentations and videos with nothing of substance at AAPL event. Should have bought a ton of puts.

Tim Cook never fails to fail on Apple Day... judging by the stock price movement for now.

IBM is very cheerful AH.

Bull or bear you get fucked in this market, where dogecoin goes stupendously up and Elon Musk tweets "everything to the moon". I'm thinking not doing anything may be the best course right now but then Nasdaq futures turns green and FOMO comes back in me.

MARA - if I didn't try to 'trade' and just held on to the share after I purchased in November last year, I would have nothing to worry now. MARA at that time was $2.88. I think I sold it at $6 or so. Ouch.

Does anyone here own/trade PAX Gold (crypto)? Is it worth owning or trading? I just read that it is fully backed by gold and is redeemable in physical gold.

So far, my bottom-fished ETH and LTC is working. If they tank again tomorrow, I have a bit of stablecoin still left to buy :)

Thank you! I tend to NOT look up and look around to see what else is happening, and that often results in losing gains unnecessarily.

Cryptos - In addition to 'rumors' of US Treasury, CNBC discovered a month-old news about India and presented as 'new' news to further spook the traders, apparently.
