The last one was bad. Back in March 27th I used gemini to build an investment thesis for oil infrastructure rebuilding. It recommended GEV, XES, BKR and SLB with entry levels etc. I forgot about that and today checked.I easily missed like 10% gain with conservative risk taking.
Did the same mistake with Google when it was around 170s
How are you guys manage to stay on top of this? Btw I have a day job and other stuff. Is there a low-time commitment method to follow on my in estment thesis and ideas?
I keep seeing opportunity but fail to execute

Sometimes i do shit, sometimes i dont. Sometimes the things i didnt do looked like good decisions in hindsight and sometimes i avoided tradgedy. I just dont overthink it.
I just have a watch list. Then I will pick something with weekly options. I will either place a CSP if I have the cash or buy a share here or there. I work full time too. I check during my breaks or while in the bathroom.
You fail to execute because you believe the time is not right, that maybe it will go down even more. Basically you are trying to time it. Instead, don’t aim for perfect bottom, aim for good enough. Don’t go all in, open a position.
That’s why people recommend a low cost index fund. If you’re sitting in the sidelines and not getting into the market because you lack total conviction, you’re probably better off just investing in the index and stop over analyzing
it is totally normal to miss plays when you are busy with a day job so do not beat yourself up over it. i have been using trylattice to keep my investment notes and stock filings organized so i do not lose track of my best ideas when things get hectic. and just setting limit orders or price alerts based on your thesis is the best low commitment way to make sure you actually execute next time. honestly having a system to remind you of your own research is the only way to stay on top of the market without staring at charts all day.
Sell low, buy High.
