i dont need it now but im reading some articles about the whole cutting losses thing, which ive never really done before, and its sort of resonating with me
a lot of them say cut losses if it goes lower than 7% of your buy in price. mine are at >15 now
then others say 'would you buy the same stock at the current price'
and to that, seeing the current market sentiment, no i probably wouldn't
tech is on a crazy discount atm, and it still can't hold even 1 good day - despite being in some cases over 50% off from ATHs. to me thats not a good sign

Me personally, I'm mostly in index funds, so nothing crazy. My few individual stocks are all tech and growth lol. So I feel ya.

the stuff im talking about is down so much, its worth taking a punt on at current prices
the difference is of course it isn't a fresh position and i could just be compounding losses
