Interesting how they are all patting themselves on their backs telling each other how smart they are and how important their jobs sound.
It really cement the same failures that occurs over and over when a roomful of smart ppl get together and decides to tackle the stock market.
Almost like academic intelligence is a guaranteed failure in the market. Yet I can't say that the ones that succeed aren't intelligent either.
It almost seems like, to succeed in the market. You need to be intelligent and posses something else. This "something else" I am starting to get a grasp on. It has some similarity to an understanding that intelligence usually lead a person to a dead end where they are sure of a certain fact. They then pursue that fact to prove it just like they do in academia or their job. But the absolute certainty of an event to be true is the exact mindset to fail in the market.
Concerning on anyone thinking of selling their shares to profit take: Instead, consider buying significantly OTM puts instead. Puts that you expect to lose every dollar on, but offer you a hedge / insurance policy on your shares.
As for how to pay for it, you can pay for it by selling a portion of your shares. Or you can sell a call if you think the max potential to run ahead is limited. Or you could sell a call spread if you think it's not likely to run much further, but if runs dramatically you could still cash out.
Selling shares isn't the only way to reduce your leverage.

Haha, you are on Paul's block list. There are more than 7000 of us on Paul's list. I have to say that block list is TSLAQ's best invention to make sure all of them stay ignorant.
I found these shorts, even after they got wiped out, still don't learn the proper lessons. For them the biggest loss is not the wipe out. Missing the Tesla train is their biggest loss. They don't understand true investment and compounding.
Man that intra day sell off and then recovery back to the high(and higher high of the day) was super impressive. We still might see a retracement over the next week or two before earnings but that was pretty impressive to watch in real time. So much selling volume during that time that I thought for sure we were going to see strong selling pressure through the rest of the day...…..but then the buying volume went into overdrive again. Makes me believe there's room to run above 500 even before earnings
Also the volume today

Starlink should be a great cash cow for SpaceX and absolutely will greatly help fund Mars colonization. But the costs to colonize Mars also depend on how fast the funders wish to get it well established. Elon wants a Mars colony to reach sustainability in his lifetime. That will take tens of billions more than Starlink will generate. IMO it's pretty certain Elon will choose to use some of his personal fortune to get there sooner.

Your broker would close it for you and you would owe them the difference. If you couldn't pay - bankruptcy. But brokers avoid this situation which is why they almost always sell your shares before your account can't cover.

Very sage advice.
I really should get some work done....but...

Re, Ghosn... as a reminder. It's possible for a person...
1) To have done a tremendous amount of good (re: electrification)
2) To have been subjected to an unfair, abusive criminal justice system
3) To have had the charges dug up for "political" reasons by opponents within Nissan
...
4) ... and to still be guilty as sin concerning the charges at hand.
The whole situation concerning Ghosn is dirty and ugly. But that doesn't mean he's actually innocent of the charges.
As a reminder of what the charges actually are:
Carlos Ghosn: the charges against him - France 24

Doomsday conspiracy theory... all the major oil companies, plus SA PIF, Koch Idiot Inc., etc., form a secret pact to buy $TSLA on the open market, each keeping below the declaration limit, until they've got a controlling stake between them, they then force buy-out of the remaining share-holders for $4000 per share, and quietly kill the company...
We've seen this kind of thing before!
Same exact story here. I had bought too many shares in the mid-300's, and used the downward spiral to add to my shares, to dilute my average share price, which is now at 305. Still not as good as many here, but I just couldn't bring myself to throw more money at it as it went further down. I am VERY risk averse, but if I had only known.
My plan is to wait until 610, sell half to get back my initial investment, and then just let the other half ride as long as the ride lasts.Similar threads
