Put up or Shut up...proof...

Evening all!

The original Doge Coin Millionaire has said that he’s holding for at least a year or until his account balance reaches $10-million. I get it, we all want to dream big, but I’ve found dreaming versus trading where the stocks/coins are right NOW is another form of the “hope and prayer” strategy. 

My thoughts...take the profits. Don’t be greedy, pay the 40% capital gains, take the $600,000 and pick up more Doge on the pullback! Profits are never guaranteed; you have to be opportunistic, lest you get left hodling the bag. 

For those who are hesitant to view what I’m saying here, I wanted to post proof (below) that I have experienced the BIG ups and downs of the market. 

Folks, I’ve been “Diamond hands” on Hydrogen (H2) (FCEL and PLUG) and Blackberry (BB) since last November. I rode the momentum up in my “sandbox” play account from $68,000 to almost over $150,000 at the peak. Guess what, I’m still holding, but I’m back to my original account value. You know why? Greed. I wanted $150,000 even. The value never got there. 

Now, this is just a small portion of my overall portfolio...again money I’m fine if I lose it. You see, I do follow my own advice — most of the time...but learn from my mistakes, RING THE REGISTER WHEN YOU WIN! 

I started this blog to help others avoid the pitfalls that  I’ve hit in my own investment journey. I’m still on target to be a millionaire within 5-years...in spite of my mistakes. And I’ve made a ton of them. 

So ring that register...If you don’t, someone else will, believe that. Don’t be Coudla, Woudla, Shoudla...HODLing until zero. 

Screenshot of my small TD play/speculation account. Since 2005, I’ve taken this account from $20,000 to over $145,000 and back to $68,000:

Almost back to .275!

Yeah, that’s what I like about Doge! A little patience, don’t overreact...she’s back, baby! Still down $35, but loaded up with $200 in cash for any major drops under .10. I’ll take the upside back to $1! Account balance: $504.66; no trades pending. Was down to $378 at one point, I’ll take a patient recovery versus a panic sale.  Strategy, hold to .75 or $1+. Add in 10% trades IF the coin stabilizes again.  Hey, 75% return back to this point. Good example of how emotions keep us from executing on opportunities. How many Coudla, Woudla, Shoudla taken advantage of the move from .16 back to .275? I didn’t. Oh I thought about going in with $5,000. Believe me, but fear kept me out. And only guts kept me in as she dropped. Would I have stayed in with an account value of $5,000+? I dunno, but that’s the point. No regrets. Moving on... Do the math...$5,500 at 75% returns = 10 trades for $1-million. Could you stomach the fear at trade number 9? I couldn’t at trade 1...

The slow dwindling to .15

This will test .15 and lower, gut feeling no fundamental analysis to support that thesis. Technically however, we are already seeing May 18th lows, but instead of positive momentum, we have stalled. As a result, I suspect this will test .19 again — as we’ve already seen .21. It’s a race to zero from there...just my opinion. Again, I see sub .10’s happening again, and I’ll buy some there and again at zero. Yep. Literally trading real dollars for ...emptiness.  My hunch is we will see $.75+ again within the year...just don’t know when, and worst case; I lose the bet... and I’m holding onto 15,000+/- Doge. Could be worse.  And this is all just that, a bet. Don’t delude yourself into thinking this is investing. But I like a good casino just as much as the next person; let it roll!

Long time no Doge...

Welp, I’ve moved out of Doge for the moment. Played Da’HOOD for some nice IPO gains. Looking to flip this trade to a quick $350- to $500, and I’ll figure things out from there. Doge has lost my interest for the moment. Sometimes momentum needs to be capitalized upon...$191 to $375, back to $277. Onwards to $500. On the other side of the fence looking to SELL one PUT option on about $4,000 for around $200 to $250. Trade to come when/if the opportunity presents itself.
