      Hey Fenna, I do understand your woes, as I've lost a lot of money in my early years learning the art of trading. It took me about 10 years, no joke, to get it right, and I now offer others the chance for others to copy my trades in about 5 min a day copying my trades. Every trade is detailed on how to get into and out of the trade. I can't guarantee a certain return, and I am NOT a financial advisor, but I can tell you that last year we did 46% returns... and this year is also on track for 40+ %) This stock market is likely to make a downturn now or very soon, and I will use the right ETFs / Patterns so we can still make money..

      Absolutely! Wealth is made in bear markets. We aren’t in a bear market, but nibbling heavy red days has proven to be fruitful for me over 9 years of investing. I am at 2.25 mil. Biggest positions PLTR, TSLA, SCHD, NVDA, and now looking to build up DRGO alongside finding quality value/growth stocks to buy. I got $48k divs last year in taxable divs. Q2 taxable divs this year was $17,388 this year. Don't sell when the market is down. Having a skilled CFA that puts the time in to do in-depth research can be invaluable in strategizing your portfolio.

    I recently bought a few ETFs. It's also a bad idea to save for a market decline. There are various viewpoints on recessions and depressions, we can't always count on seeing big returns, and taking chances is better than doing nothing. The bottom line is that you will get amazing results by diversifying your portfolio and making wise decisions. My portfolio generated a $608,500 profit in 2022.

      The market's uncertainty is one of the reasons I have my daily investment decisions guided by an investment advisor, as their skill set is built around going long and also shorting the market to maximize returns, both employing profit-oriented strategy and laying off risk as a hedge against inevitable downtrends, and when combined with exclusive analysis, it's nearly impossible not to outperform. Since the 2020 pandemic, I've made more than $1.5M after subsequent investments thus far.

    An important aspect to keep in mind for any investment is that they entail risk. Markets go up, markets go down. When that happens, your balance in the investment will naturally change.
    That’s market risk and it’s just one type of risk you’re exposed to when you invest. There’s also interest rate risk, inflation risk, currency risk, and many more.
    However, target date funds attempt to lessen the severity of some risk by gradually and automatically transitioning your asset mix of stocks and bonds to a more conservative mix as you approach retirement.

    My advice is always to keep the majority in ETFs that cover multiple sectors. Then have a couple stocks, as a good percentage, picked out that you feel personally attached to or interested in. That way you can mitigate a lot of the risk but also have a personal touch to your portfolio. I feel this mitigates some of the emotional downsides or disinterest people have with investing. Also helps with the urge to constantly buy/sell with fluxes in the market.

    As an lnvesting enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?

  • @williamhorn2500
    @williamhorn2500 2 роки тому +1

    I appreciate the info and the resources. Other folks comments as well. Here is another strategy you may want to consider. I watch about 10 ETF's : TQQQ/SQQQ, TNA/TZA, SOXL/SOXS, URTY/SRTY, SPXL/SPXS. Nasdaq, Small Caps, Semi Conductors, Russel, and the S&P 500. The correlation of all of them are opposite to each other. There is overlap between the pairs but what I do is have them also on a watch list. The only thing I have to decide from a little reading the night before is whether or not the market is going up or down. Rarely does the market go straight up or down on opening. Today was an exception with the CPI at 8:30 am eastern. Pre-market bulls went down more than a little and bears went up by the same. At opening it reversed and bulls went straight up and didn't stop till lunch. What is unique is that the indexes they track were all negative. I find it very educational to watch what happens when the market opens as day traders are out to make cash and they have a lot of manipulation money. They bid under current pricing to drive a bull down and it almost seems like they are trying to restrain it. Multiple under bids and they get a good entry point. I use Google Finance and leave my curser on the graph so it shows me the share price and number of shares purchased. When you see 5 times the number of shares being purchased in the dip, time to follow the smart money. By having the 10 tabs open, you switch to its counterpart and see if you are correct by seeing how few shares are being purchased. Case in point, at 9:30 eastern you could have bought SOXL at $47.40. At 10:42 you could of sold at $52.10. What keys you to sell? 5X's the volume increase of share purchases on SOXS that traders are buying in the dip. You could have bought at $3.69 and rode it up to about $4.13 as I usually don't stick around for the last 30 minutes as you get hurt by the selloff of traders dumping shares. So if you buy and hold, the spread is not as good. Day to day, previous close was $51.15 on SOXL, and it dropped to close at $46.42 today and lost 10%. So you could have made over 20% in a perfect world with my system. Do I get it right to the perfect high and low everyday? No. Can you be out by a few % from the high and low and make money? Yes. Even with the brokerage fees? Yes. I started this on January 12th and I am up 60%. I am still learning everyday. Things to watch out for? CPI Reports, earnings day when a company's market cap is in the top 50 of the index you want to put your money into(rough lesson as I have been reading so much, I was tired and missed Facebooks earnings), applying what you learned the night before from the Google News on the Nasdaq as a whole, small caps, semi conductors, the Russel, and the S&P. You know what I really like, is the stop loss. If the combination of the the pair hits 10% in the opposite direction of its trend, you had best pay attention at 15% you are in the wrong one but the real key is the share purchases of the opposite ETF that you have your money in. Check it out, I love it. Peaks of one are the buying opportunity of the inverse. My plan is too never have more than 10K in and I only bet on one ETF at a time but if you can make 20% like today and pocket 2k, how does that match up to the portfolio level of profit. Take your profits from the 10k and put it into whatever you want. Enjoy! I am not a financial planner and this is not financial advise. Just telling you what I do. Thanx

      No worries for me, I don't try to time the market. When I see that stock drops below its fair value with some margin of safety - I buy. Past 2-3 months have been huge shopping spree for me.

    Great video overall about ETFs BUT he did not explain further about the "spend" or "risk" u need to make if u invest in ETFs. S&P everyday is going down now since last year, buy when the stock is really really really cheap. Only invest if u see this as long term to help u build "future" savings, compunded while u sleep. This is a passive income only if u buy stocks that generate high growth so analyze the stocks first before buying. U also need to hv the extra "money" on the side to make this investment because u need to 1) invest money to buy stock, 2) pay for the transaction fee 3) pay commission fee 4)when u buy stock and u make profit and u sell the stock, u also need to pay withdrawal fee (so make ur own calculation for a period of time, look at the average growth of the stock, learn more about the hidden fees as well guys thats my 2cent advise)

It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong.
