I think 7-8. Is pretty reasonable target for next year.

Yup, I'd be very happy making 40-60% in a year if I can get in at 5.

I was hoping it would dip this morning but it went the other way, up to 6 before a slight pullback. I have a limit order in at $5.25

Looks like firm resistance at about 5.50

Same. I'm trying to take advantage of these pumps because it's easy money. But at the same time, I want to get back to my plan.

Pennystocks are basically free money atm. Easy 30% gains from any up-voted Reddit penny stock.

Lot of people who left Robinhood are buying OTC now.

And we still are supposed to get our 1400 stimulus so I think this can go on for another month.

Any love for HCMC?

Failure to delivers huge on GME and AMC these past two weeks. People should be going to jail. SEC will do nothing but grill some poor kid who was smart enough to identify the hedge funds had over played their cards.

That's up like 10,000% for the year lol.

I can't touch it now. Maybe it can still go up at 0.005 a share. It has meme potential, but I got a bunch already.

Anybody that uses Robinhood have you gotten a 1099 yet? Part of me is not even sure if my gains (maybe a few hundred dollars) is noticeable enough to wait & report. Rather be safe with IRS but its pretty small amounts too.

Honestly its probably not a huge deal since you can claim ignorance lol but its best to just make sure its filed. Shouldnt change your returns much if at all. Im wondering the same when the 1099 will be available for download. Their website says Feb 16th but the app still has it as unavailable. Same with coinbase, not sure what I need to file since I am holding all my crypto and stocks

I'm enjoying stock picking again. I used to do a lot of it and did a ton with options. Then I got too busy to do any DD. Today was a red day but **** happens.

I'm looking at FRX in anticipation of

I’ll jump on the FRX train with you. I know a lot of BeachBody members. I’ve never invested in SPACS before, but I know you want to get in around 10ish.

If you look at their website, they have their hands in every buzz word out there right now. EV, blockchain, fintech, tech, etc...

Sounds like a bunch of BS. Pretty much like everything in Pennyland. Almost all these stocks are saying cannabis, blockchain, fintech, EV, batteries.

Not even Amazon does all that crap lmao.

The head of the show this week was $SOS.

$CAN, $HUTMF, $ARBKF doing great as well.

From somebody who doesn't really understand blockchain + Crypto, I think it's better for me to just put a little in BTC + ETH instead of trying to chase these momentum plays. Especially, since I plan to hodl.


BTC and ETH is a good start. Not very big on alts, I'm sure there's some gems in there, but right now I'm not sure their fundamentals can compete with BTC and ETH and justify their prices/risk.

I've told my friends ETH then BTC and if they want more exposure to DeFi then try to get DPI (DeFi Pulse Index). I suggest trying to purchase it on Loopring on L2 to get lower fees (once you're on L2). I'm a big fan of LINK as well, which I'm not sure why it isn't included in DPI.
