If youâre too scared to hold through earnings, you should just day trade chart setups. Thereâs no need to analyze fundamentals.

Already found⌠buy n hold⌠do nothing all the time. But I need to conquer my dark side 
Two counters out of 8 is still red⌠UBNT and IRBT.
And still not fully invested 
SHOP leaps call has doubled. Used to have 3, left only one 
Making $ via calls is very fast, the problem is now and then, we have Andrew & similar spoiling the cook like in UBNT and IRBT. This makes me overly cautious, I guess.
Small caps are doing well

Didnât make much money in NTNX because of lack of understanding of what exactly is HCI Sound like middleware, that is that much I know 
Seems like playing with stocks to you is like playing mahjong. Money at risk is too low to really matter but you seem to enjoy it for excitement purpose?
You mean you want to make money through trading?
Didnât WB and wuqijun hammer into you that the only way to make big money is BUY and HOLD.
Out of the 8, based on their performance, it appears to be VEEV and PANW.
You guys need to show me your trading accounts to really convince me of âbuy and holdâ. 
I donât trade but curious to see you swerating the details for so little money involved.
Buy n hold has nothing to talk about. Quietly make BIG money and talk incessantly about small money. Get it?
Isnât it exactly the same as playing mahjong? Most people have day jobs and only play for entertainment.
All my mahjong kah kee are in Singapore. Donât dabble with stocks and options at all when I am in Singapore.
Look like you miss my âsharing is caringâ post.
If proper research or fundamentals are reviewed, BUY and HOLD is fine.
Even after 10% down, I am holding TEVA by buffet effect ! In fact, I bought more today.

I indeed missed your âsharing is caringâ post. Now I feel very warm and fuzzy.
I think Buffettâs âbuy and holdâ is widely misunderstood. What the man said was that he prefers to hold forever. To qualify the business must be doing well. WB doesnât mind selling losing businesses like IBM, or some OK business after huge price run-up like PetroChina.
WB doesnât just blindly buy and hold forever. To do that would mean he never made any mistake.

Trading vs buy and hold account is only up 3.5%. Iâm going to start duplicating the trades in both accounts.

Correct. Selling is a part of strategy. Again, selling decision is tougher.
That is his new thinking a few years ago. He remarked that he should have sold KO when it is excessively overvalued. Guess is not sexy enough for journalists to repeat his qualification of the buy n hold hopefully forever.
