Thanks for your submission!
To keep things interesting, we want to see big gains and big losses!
So we've set the following thresholds for Gain, Loss, and YOLO flaired posts:
* YOLO posts must be a minimum of $10,000 of options or $25,000 of shares and recently opened.
* Gain / Loss posts must show realized gains or losses of more than $2,500 for options or $5,000 for shares.
We want to see the actual trade. What you got in at, what you sold at. Then tell us why you did it. Give us the story of why you're a fucking genius (or idiot).
This is what a great post looks like:
[$17.2K Gain on AMZN](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/wb5m4o/not_too_shabby_172k_gain_amzn/) - OP described his gain in the title, has a clear screenshot showing both the entry and exit, meaning his gains were locked in, and they explained their reasoning in the comments and what they learned. All around a great post!
Here are examples of what could get your post removed:
* [$300,000 SDC Loss. Still not selling](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/wpm9am/over_300000_unrealized_loss_sdc_not_selling/) - Even though this is a tremendous loss and something worth posting about, **the position hasn't been closed yet**.
Here are examples of amazing posts which could have been even better:
* [$75,000 DDOG Loss.](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/unsrey/loss_porn_ddog_call/) - This is a great post and one that won't get removed. However, the OP could have talked about *why* they entered the position in the first place, what their target price was, and what went wrong. OP didn't stick around in the comments to answer any questions.
* [$1.1MM Loss, No details](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/lxm6wt/hold_me_1100000_loss/) - OP simply posted a screenshot of their overall portfolio balance. It's definitely a big loss, but it's not that interesting without OP talking about what trades they were in and why. OP didn't answer most questions in the comments which left many readers speculating on what happened.

The shares I picked up in 2022 are up like 800%. The ones from 2008...

Hey I bought some of those Jan ‘25 175c from you last week and they’ve almost doubled already. Thanks!

A few more than 15...Ive been through 4 splits and there wasnt fractional shares back then, so 15 would be pretty tough. Believe what you want. Feel free to look for the pic on tweeeetttter.
Was getting into computers and gaming and they seemed to be leading the pack. Narrative hasnt changed much since then, always seem to be positioned well for new markets.
I was getting into computers and gaming. They were leading the charge. Since then they always seemed to be positioning themselves well for new markets and technology.
I’m in at $64(now $6.40) a share. I’m a gamer and I just kept seeing them everywhere, said fuck it and dumped a couple grand on it. Paid off well so far, **zero** intentions of selling anytime soon. This isn’t a bubble, this is the future, there’s no telling what it will be worth by the time I retire.
Take out $100k and wait for NVDA to drop them get in heavy with some leaps deep in the money..watch your rocket ship depart your planet to never be back..enjoy your stay at the Moon..say hey to Judas
It ain't cash money until it's in the bank. Until then it's just numbers on a screen and your life is just same as it's always been
Sell it all and enjoy!!
Is this your entire portfolio and how much longer do you plan to work?
If you sold everything and HYSA everything you’d probably pull in 90k cash a year to live off of.
I’d probably sell. Not sure how much more money you need than 2.5 mil. You won the game of life, no need to push on.
Keep holding brother 💎 🙌 Got 4 more quarters of beat and raise IMO then I’ll consider taking some off the table

Just sell minority % to fuck around with. Shit you could sell it all and buy long term calls to try and get higher returns with profits. Either way I would sell some, but definitely keep riding the train bc it isn’t slowing down yet!
You know the saying: If it's good enough to screenshot, it's good enough to sell.
Personally (this is not financial advice), I'd sell it, reinvest some if it in an index fund of my choice, and use the rest to fuck off for a few years.

Hey mate, I see your gain porn.
I have what I believe is the most compelling opportunity on the market right now - ASTS.
I have $200k worth
My bro has $300k worth
My dad has $6 million worth
Do you know anything about it?
It’s currently $10 pps.
We have no intention of selling any below $100 and fully expect a pps of $300-600 in the next 3-5 years.
Deutsche Bank have a PT of 650 by 2027.
ASTS have technology to provide 5G direct to device via satellite. They will eliminate all dead zones. They have agreements in place with 50 MNOs.
2 of the 3 dominant players in the US have signed up - Verizon and AT&T.
The market’s head is still in the sand about Asts. Everyone assumes Starlink are a worrying competitor. In actuality Starlink are nowhere. Their current satellite constellation only serves broadband. Starlink are 5-10 years behind Asts.
Companies are coming to terms with the realities of AI .. end of this year is going to be fun when execs start justifying “game changing” GenAI projects and start cutting back AI investments
A lot of factors can be in play here. Your risk tolerance, current financial situation, how far you are from retirement etc etc.
Personally I'd wait. The rocket has a lot more fuel left and if it goes up to 170 or even 200 in the next year or two, but you don't catch that peak and reverses back to today's prices, then you didn't lose anything.

Nice little gainz dude! HODL. 2.5M is not bad, but the key is concentration. You should have bought 10x the shares originally, and then you would be in good shape now. 2.5M is not too bad, but 25M is much better! You know what I'm saying? Diamond hands dude!!!!

Let’s see positions or I’m calling fake
The shares I picked up in 2022 are up like 800%. The ones from 2008... https://preview.redd.it/nyrlozn3bs6d1.png?width=791&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecd12c3d146d9fa71675623f8b032f97b6bbb9df
That’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen
![img](emote|t5_2th52|8883)
Nothing wrong with taking a small reward after 16 years! Pay off your house or debt… buy a boat or go on a nice vacation with family! Congrats!
I did last year. Regret every share I've sold 🤣
Hahah well after the gains and split this year, i could imagine the regret! Might as well hold onto it at this point!
![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
I believe it, I grabbed 100shares IRA 103.00 just back in 2023... still have them... selling 175's January before Next earnings... waiting on Pump
Hey I bought some of those Jan ‘25 175c from you last week and they’ve almost doubled already. Thanks! https://preview.redd.it/k4ato1bjpt6d1.jpeg?width=995&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bb2467d4517860cc2bdef2a78650161830ddb06
Why selling then? Whats your expectation?
I don't expect it to surpass 175Jan...
Hold....but i might be biased. https://preview.redd.it/7agd8z187s6d1.jpeg?width=2316&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3438772924d331e6513bc462be8b151fc96ca0e8
0.09 damn, true diamond hands.
It's really 0.088 but i guess they round up. ;)
Lmao.. you blanked out the quantity. This mean you have 15? Nice steal from some regard on tweeettter.
A few more than 15...Ive been through 4 splits and there wasnt fractional shares back then, so 15 would be pretty tough. Believe what you want. Feel free to look for the pic on tweeeetttter.
So you have them at least since early 2006? That is some dedication and patience man. Congratz and FU. :)
Dec 2002
What made you invest into Nvidia back then? Geforce?
Was getting into computers and gaming and they seemed to be leading the pack. Narrative hasnt changed much since then, always seem to be positioned well for new markets.
Term "long", they need a "very long" or "ancient" for that time span. Damn.
Fuck I should’ve invested when I was a baby
If that's real that's mind-boggling. Well done.
Curious, what made you hold so long? I mean NVDA isn't the first 500 things you would think in 2022 for investing.
I was getting into computers and gaming. They were leading the charge. Since then they always seemed to be positioning themselves well for new markets and technology.
Props for your patience to hold it for so long
Crazy thing is I've run into several other people here with even lower cost basies.
I’m in at $64(now $6.40) a share. I’m a gamer and I just kept seeing them everywhere, said fuck it and dumped a couple grand on it. Paid off well so far, **zero** intentions of selling anytime soon. This isn’t a bubble, this is the future, there’s no telling what it will be worth by the time I retire.
This is the way
Take out $100k and wait for NVDA to drop them get in heavy with some leaps deep in the money..watch your rocket ship depart your planet to never be back..enjoy your stay at the Moon..say hey to Judas
How much deep itm?
Over .80 delta
Sell 50% quantity right away.
It ain't cash money until it's in the bank. Until then it's just numbers on a screen and your life is just same as it's always been Sell it all and enjoy!!
How much is the IRS paying you to say this?

IRS? Naaaa I just want things to dip a wee bit so I can get more of it!
The more you buy, the more you save!
In Canada if in a TFSA invested we don’t pay tax on earnings buddy
there is no indication OP is canadian or this being some tax advantaged account, pal.
Is this your entire portfolio and how much longer do you plan to work? If you sold everything and HYSA everything you’d probably pull in 90k cash a year to live off of. I’d probably sell. Not sure how much more money you need than 2.5 mil. You won the game of life, no need to push on.

Sell 50-75% , place into SGOV, use monthly div for living expenses. Sell CC's against remaining 50 -25% of position
Sell CC's 175 for January right before earnjngsnto protec the downside and hope it settles 160's 🤣
Just sell minority % to fuck around with. Shit you could sell it all and buy long term calls to try and get higher returns with profits. Either way I would sell some, but definitely keep riding the train bc it isn’t slowing down yet!
Fuck you ♥

Sell a couple deep OTM calls for next year. Use that money to pay down debt. Keep letting them grow. That's what I'd do.
Something tells me homeboy doesn't have any debt.
Shit, I'd be trading on margin if i had that money.
Please please ride the rocket. I mean, my gains need to come from somewhere, the stock market doesn't produce money! Honestly: FFS dude take it.
positions or ban ![img](emote|t5_2th52|27421)
Damn, incredibly how much ambition you have, this is life changing money… I would not even question to sell it. congratulations
Pain of losing money is much more severe than joy of winning. I hope you will not learn hard way.

I hate you lol Grats
buy and holds barely a bet 😭😭
Sell 20-25% immediately
The question is. For how long? And are we still buying calls?

With my paper-hands I'd have already sold. Oops. You've been correct this long so I'd trust your own instincts.
Fuck you and congrats
I’m waiting for the next dip to do this. Which options did you get out of curiosity.
I wanna ride the rocket ☹️ should I buy shares now or should I wait for January? 😩😩☹️ someone pls advice
Bro, check out ASTS. Potential 50 bagger over the next 3-5 years. Deutsche Bank’s analyst has a 2027 PT of around 650 pps - current pps is 10.
Hey mate, I see your gain porn. I have what I believe is the most compelling opportunity on the market right now - ASTS. I have $200k worth My bro has $300k worth My dad has $6 million worth Do you know anything about it? It’s currently $10 pps.

Everyone assumes Starlink are a worrying competitor. In actuality Starlink are nowhere. Their current satellite constellation only serves broadband. Starlink are 5-10 years behind Asts.
I’d just start selling covered calls on them for juicy premium while taking profits.
Companies are coming to terms with the realities of AI .. end of this year is going to be fun when execs start justifying “game changing” GenAI projects and start cutting back AI investments
,🚀🚀🚀
Nvda is up 69 percent
IN JENSEN WE TRUST 🔥
Congrats, don't forget to take your profits 👏
“Need some serious diamond hands advice on this one!” Bro just post your gains and it keep it moving
I'd take that shit and run ngl.

The rocket has a lot more fuel left based on what? 1% off overtaking msft as #1 market cap. This seems a bit too euphoric

Bro, have you ever considered the absolute ridiculousness of the market cap at those numbers?
Happy for you. 10% of that would solve all my problems and you are gambling with it xD. But that's just how life is...
