Oh, and actually, the past year of stocks has never been historically better. The only time it came close was in 2017 and it was only half the velocity as it is this year. And before you lecture me on inflation driving the price, you should realize bitcoin is also driven by inflation. And if you want "muh volatility", you can always manage that and your risk with options and leverage.

But fundamentally. Like people who trade and look for volatile stocks arent picking stocks they worry will go down in the first place. We arent even in a position to need a stop loss or want to fumble with one because it doesn't even make sense; like why wouldn't we just be watching the stock, and why would it be tanking without us knowing. We have no business being in that scenario, that long, in the first place.
In the context of scalping, day trading and swing trading you don't need such a measure nor should you use one. And when you talk wanting/favoring volatility you are automatically talking in that day trading/swing trading context by default unless otherwise specified.
Maybe you would have a notification or something turned on? But its not a program you just run and go about your day. You cant just sit there and run a bunch of parameters for selling or buying and leave the bot to do it all for you dude.
You have to pay attention every minute if youre looking to make money off of it. Think of yourself as a security guard who gets paid in crazy commissions every once in a while for baby sitting and watching stocks

Think of the flip side though. If he sold and said that’s it...then what? Stock likely tanks and crushes a lot of people. I think he did everyone a favor by going out the way he did.
I remember watching his streams before he got national attention. Seemed like just a regular guy that liked to have fun. Wish him the best.

It made sense for DFV to make this move.
Plus he said final update on his portfolio. Nobody will know what he does next.
So if this pops or doesn't any time now he can slowly start to unwind the trade.

I would rather make a good entry, sit around for 10 minutes to make sure everything looks good, then set a stop loss a bit below the resistance to avoid candle wicks triggering. 9/10 times a stop loss is better than no stop loss. Worst case you take a slight loss and can try again later. If you’re scalping then sure, who fking cares because your trades last minutes or hours at best.

Basically a powerhouse team with renowned experts. Used a soil analysis study completed years ago for millions of dollars, sent it to a leading expert in Houston who said there has never been a basin this deep without substantial amounts of oil. Conservative estimate they did if the huge land that they rented(12% of land has oil) is 120 billion barrels of oil making it one if not the biggest basin ever discovered on earth. The initial drilling results from well 1 confirmed 660 feet of oil & natural gas indicators over three discrete intervals. Their estimate was 400ft but discovered 660ft.
They are just in a discovery phase so no fracking and hopefully no fracking ever needed for the basin. Not all the resources are recoverable and who knows if some of it even will be. This would put a conservative price range for the stock at around $100-$200 with wild estimates(should they discover a huge amount that's recoverable) of up to a $1000. They need to complete the two other wells before they can create a map of the basin.
Now this is a highly speculative play like you mentioned but Namibian government has a 10% stake in it no strings attached with the possibility of investing more should the pieces fall in place.
There's a lot of misinformation about them doing fracking, un-environmental disposing of byproducts, kicking out the indigenous people etc. but if you look at the videos they've put on their website and interviews done with the management, this is not the case at all.
The way I see it, is if you have some cash to gamble with, throw a couple of grand or more into it and if you get lucky and the discovery is as huge as the management anticipates, your 2k would turn to 200k or more. I only dropped what I can comfortably lose and not cry over on the off-chance that the stars align and it'll print 7 figures.
The current price should be $10 according to some analysts.
If you do decide to join the lottery where either everyone wins or everyone loses, I'd wait a bit as the price is most likely going to drop. 100% increase in two days is not sustainable in any way.
On reddit.com/r/reconafrica you can see all sorts of estimate calculators and a deeper look into what the business is about but this is nothing like EEENF that got pumped and dumped recently.
https://www.bloomberg.com/press-rele...-could-be-here
Bill Cathey, President and Chief Geoscientist of Earthfield Technology is
known as the "geological interpreter to the supergiants," as he has consulted
for every oil and gas major and large independent in the business. Here's what
he had to say about the Kavango Basin:
"Not only was the data on the basin some of the best he had ever seen...
nowhere in the world is there a sedimentary basin of this depth that has ever
failed to produce commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. "
And Cathey is not the only expert to have weighed in on the potential for
Reconnaissance Energy Africa ( RECO .V; RECAF ).

but ive also committed to not selling at a loss. it is what it is
i do think the stock has potential, but insider selling needs to reduce, and they also need to pull some actual figures out on earnings day. no more projections, we need profits.
if those 2 things happen it's gonna be above 30 quite quickly. but i wouldn't be surprised if we see it test 20 and maybe even go lower before then

$5 billion worth of COIN was sold off.
If you were confident in your product why are you dumping it?

To reiterate, that was 506x not 506%.
