I kept my 15 shares, 175$ average as a reminder that timing the market is much harder than investing regularly in an ETF World.

Now the same line is saying I am a savvy investor who can make 1000$ on a random stock bet...

Anyway, I am still in, and will start selling on the way up from 500$ I think. In the meantime I go to bed way too late looking at the line going up and it's really tiring. Don't want to do it again in the future... Not on a US stock

Haha, I had 90 shares @ 213 and have sold a few to get some money back. But nice to see my Rakuten finally in the red! (also not sure why it uses red for gains).

Oh and I spent today working on a project that changes the lights in my house to track any ticker (GME in this case) and yell at me if it's tanking/soaring etc. That way I can sleep and be woken up if I need to. Score.

So I went to sleep at 2am when it hit 340$. Did I miss anything?

Also, I have finally been able to set a sell order at $500 (for 5 out of 15 shares) since the price hit >$333, and my French broker only allows for orders at +/-50% of current price. Now I can sleep a bit easier knowing if it shoots way up while I sleep I'll at least make some profit.

Yeah still in haha. I sold 20 shares for a decent profit, and if I were to sell the rest now I'm still positive, but not by much. Riding it out, no idea what'll happen.
