Plug for that discord: $12 entry was alerted :towel:

Discord is mostly full of idiots though (not you)..  It's kids spending $100 and pumping the stock to try and make it go up... It's hard to filter through the crap and find the GEM's. At least here I know most of y'all and we can decipher what we're seeing.

 

I have been in and out of over 20 channels and I'm only in 1 now because it's all about business..

Our channel is only like 10 of us. Mostly from bc and Ontario, 1 Albertan, 1 Newfoundlander and a couple from texas. And I think 4 of the 10 active talkers are from this thread haha.

Sounds like somebody found Atlas...

Lolol I joined Atlas, holy crap that was a bloody gong show, left that after about 20 minutes.  Now I am just in 2, the one Nucks suggested and another dad one that I am learning a ton and really educational for me.

@nuckin_futz thanks for helping me use a scanner! Bit late but thanks! (your insight is always appreciated, and respected! join our discord please).

 

Atlas Spac Chat is actually good, they made me 6 figures in a month, but @NucksPatsFan chat is better cause we're all normal people trying to make a dollar. I have a habit of selling early and leaving profits on the table, nuckspatsfan has helped me secure the whole bag and not just half.

No problem, glad it helped. As for your habit of leaving profits on the table. I recommend creating a system to govern your exits. For example, take off 25% shortly after you get in the money, then another 25% at a certain % gain. Then use trailing stops to let you ride the rest with peace of mind. Make it as mechanical as possible eliminating the guess work. To the point that you have it completely defined and could explain your exit strategy to someone else (ie a programmer) and they could execute it (program it). The point of all that is to eliminate the second guessing which leads to grabbing profits early and erodes confidence.

 

Thanks for the invite to the discord chat but for now I will refrain. FYI I've actually spend the last 5 years trading foreign exchange and futures (index and commodity). Seventeen years of equity trading prior to that. However, trading markets that trade 23/5 has taken a bit of a toll. I keep rather bizarre hours and have price alerts going off all the time interrupting sleep. It's not ideal. I miss trading a market that actually closes at some point in the day. The dawn of commission free trading (at least in USA) has lead to an explosion of volume in equity markets. It's become impossible to ignore the endless stream of fish who are trading on phones and learning as they go. So why don't I become a financial pescetarian? That said, if anyone cares I have decided to return to equity trading full time. Lots of things to put in place before then but I should be ready to roll by January. ... Jesus, take the wheel. :frantic:

 

P.S. Congrats on the nice month.

Have you quit your job yet ? Lordy... What did you start with ?

 

Not questing you but I would love to see the breakdown of how it all went down. Trades and how much you bought in for. 

 

Storytelling time!!!

Bit hungover right now..so it’ll be more point form.

 

-Sold off all my mind med shares cause I got impatient l which would have been worth a lot more today had I done nothing and just be patient. 
 

-Went in heavy (20k) into SPAQ/FSR, went on a roller coaster ride and barely made away with any profits, cause I got greedy/impatient and didn’t understand the full spac cycle.

 

-Found myself in a bunch of discord’s, some really stupid ones but the few I mentioned early. Atlas is pretty bad, but theirs a few guys in the Spac_Chat that I was able to ask questions and learn from. 
 

-Got the alert from Bloomberg about CIIC from twitter notifications I set for GillianTan (found her via atlas), that they were merging with Arrival. This was my first really big win and I bought my first mass warrant buy at 10,000 warrants for $1.75. I eventually sold early for $3.90 and it went on to hit $7+.  I’d be lying if it didn’t bother me, but I can’t complain about the profits I made. 
 

-Next I bought GIK warrants 15,000 for $1.49 and flipped them for $1.92 (which also ended up going a lot higher after). 
 

-Then I bought almost 7000 warrants in NBAC for $1.96 again sold early for $2.67 (I think they went much higher too). 
 

-Flipped ACAM/QELL warrants real quick in there somewhere.

 

-Got in real early with 20,000 AMCI warrants at about $0.80, almost sold at $1.90 and held longer thanks to nuckspatsfan. 
 

-Also loaded 20,000 ALAC warrants at $0.67-$0.70 which riskier but I could just tell it was going to get pumped next it drove up to $1.40 and I managed to get out at $1.20. 
 

-I currently hold 20,000 warrants in BFT from $2.70s which rocketed that’s to CNBC. 
 

I’m sure I missed some in there, I’m also holding positions in SNPR/SOAC. Basically I just went all in reckless in warrants and the market got hot. I’ve been looking for warrants in SPACs that are closer to net asset value or jump in as soon as a rumour hits. 
 

I haven’t quit my job, don’t plan too as I work for a start up where our provincial healthcare is interested in acquiring. So theirs potential I walk away with a bigger bag of cash here.

I really appreciate it and I definitely need to scale back and stick to a strategy before I do something incredibly stupid. 
 

Thanks again!

Sorry, could you explain what 'get in the money means'?
