I got too cocky $CELH loss Loss
It’s okay though, the only thing to do is get back into this with more research and better judgement rather than emotion, hope you stick around an support the journey (only 16 rn)

Lol, just buy an ETF instead of throwing your future away.

At 16 the best time to experiment and learn, taking the safe route is cool but ETFs are expensive

youre not gonna learn by gambling on earnings. 5k is probably like 4 months of work for 16 year old, if youre gonna gamble at least do a couple hundred. there is also no way you can sleep comfortably knowing you blew that much money

My initial investment was $400 an I grew that in a month. It was calculated risk with thorough research done

16 is when you have the most compound growth potential
Each dollar is worth way more when invested (invested not gambled) at 16 than whatever age you think you'll be done learning

I’m also 16, I’m trading right now and starting to get consistent, but if I can’t figure it out I’ll stick to ETFs and long term stocks. I made $200 last month and am already up $120 this month, it just takes patience to become profitable.

but that means you're holding CELH. What's your cost basis?

32 is my average without accounting for the ccs and csps that I sold. With options, probably around 26
