Hit another all time high. Feel pretty blessed. To think I only started with $50k just 12 years ago 🙏
Will my account stay this high? Maybe. Maybe it keeps going up, maybe it goes down.
I don’t care.
I keep the formula the same:
Pick 1-3 high conviction stocks and don’t believe FUD, bears, trolls, jealous people, panicans, nervous Nellies, media, talking heads, doomers…
I believe in myself and my DD. I believe in my conviction. I believe in my judgment.
To all the accounts that add value to X, thanks.
Special shout out to @mvcinvesting who was literally the first person I saw posting about $NBIS.
For some reason your posts kept entering my feed…..I did my own DD and I was hooked.
3.5 bagger for me.
Probably my 10th multi bagger but with each consecutive bagger, they become more and more substantial.
Also major shout out to @daniel_koss his DD is second to none.
Let’s keep the grind going y’all! Just the beginning 🙏👊👍🫡

@BlackPantherCap Not completing putting trailing stops on everything in January
English
My biggest mistakes this year so far;
Not selling $OSS and adding more to my $NBIS position at $85.
Not selling $OSS and adding more to my $AAOI position at $86.
Not selling $OSS and adding more to my $IREN position at $32.
Anyhow, I still like $OSS, I’m down -12%.
But I like money more.
What’s yours biggest mistakes this year?

@BlackPantherCap Thanks for the back story Panther, this is one I’m finally getting familiar with
English
$aaoi is up 43% the past 5 days.
the optical networking story just got a new data point and most people missed the actual signal.
on april 2, $aaoi announced a $71m follow-on order for 800g transceivers from a hyperscale customer.
that brings total contracted orders for this cycle to $124M.
the coverage reaction: $aaoi gets big order. bullish.”
that is the wrong read. Here is the right one.
the order itself is not the signal.
the CADENCE is.
three months ago the order count was smaller. now it is $124m. the hyperscaler is not placing one order; it is returning.
repeatedly. on an accelerating schedule.
when a hyperscaler re-orders at this pace, it tells you one thing: they are building something big, they need the product to keep arriving, and they do not have a viable alternative supplier they are testing in parallel. this is not spot demand. this is a production pipeline.
now here is what nobody is talking about.
the 800g orders are the current revenue. the are not the thesis. the thesis is the 1.6t ramp in H2 2026.
$aaoi secured $200M in pre-orders for 1.6T modules earlier this year. deliveries begin in the second half. the distinction matters because 1.6t modules command materially higher average selling prices than 800g. same production floor. higher margin per unit.
the 800g orders confirm the customer relationship exists and is scaling. the 1.6t ramp is what converts that relationship into a different margin profile entirely.
the risk is real and you need to understand it. over 80% of $aaoi revenue comes from two customers. if one walks, the thesis breaks. full stop. the company is also pre-profitability on gaap basis, funding expansion through an at-the-market equity offering at its texas facility, which means dilution is ongoing.
this is not a sleep-well-at-night position. It is a high-conviction, high-risk, thesis-specific bet that the 1.6t cycle materialises on schedule and margin expansion follows.
the 800g order cadence says the customer relationship is real. the 1.6t pre-orders say the upgrade cycle is contracted.
the question H2 2026 answers is whether execution matches the roadmap.
I hold $aaoi. still holding.

$NBIS new all time high on my birthday!
Now it just needs to hold it.
Let’s go!!!

Another massive underperformance by $IREN today compared to the overall market. At this point in time you have to wonder what is weighing down the stock so much.
A gap will close. Whether it is an opportunity or knowledge gap.
English
Ok, folks, here’s the deal. My source says the negotiations are nearing a conclusion. All of the largest issues have been resolved. The one final wrinkle is the Iranian negotiators want free Chipotle for a year. They don’t have it in Tehran. Has been escalated to Trump. Close.
English
I believe the probability is higher that:
$NBIS goes to $300 than stays at $100.
$AAOI goes to $500 than stays at $110.
$RKLB goes to $250 than stays at $65.
$IREN goes to $150 than stays at $35.
$AMPX goes to $75 than stays at $17.
$ONDS goes to $50 than stays at $9.
$CIFR goes to $65 than stays at $14.
$OSS goes to $40 than stays at $8.
We are living in the exponential era.
The doubt is loud. The data is louder.

@TradersConf Every one has done this a number of times, everyone can deny it all they want

Had my last $8,000, deposited into robinhood. Bought a 0dte option Monday, made $1,500 in 5 mins & was content until an hour later my original investment would’ve been at $50,000 if I was just more patient. Next day I buy $8k worth of options again with the thought of I’m gonna be patient this time. 5 mins passes my $8k is at $16,000, im thinking this is my chance, I’m not selling. Long story short $16k was the peak & I ended up with $0 holding & hoping it would bounce back

High-yield Bitcoin-linked products, some thoughts ...
Once $BTC decisively reclaims $80K and pushes higher, we should see most — if not all — of the recent NAV pressure on $BTCI unwind and recover. Looking further out, as Bitcoin climbs toward $150K, $250K, and beyond, high-yield Bitcoin-linked products like $BTCI, $BLOX, and $MAXI are positioned to perform strongly from today's depressed levels. These funds leverage volatility for income (via options overlays) while still capturing meaningful BTC upside in a sustained bull run. On a true long-term horizon, the downside risk here looks limited — especially if you're bullish on Bitcoin's trajectory.

@crimsonavenger Same, it really is a number. Remember the saying- “comparison is the thief of joy. Let all the others who think they’re old act and look old.

@paradisemint I’ve got about 2k $BTCI and bought 1k $NEHI last week. Once I see some moves on BTC I will give $XBCI a try as well
English
I’m still doing $QQQI and $BTCI .
QQQI has been rock solid and remains a pillar in my portfolio.
BTCI has had its problems only because bitcoin is down so much. But the fund is still doing exactly what it is designed to do. I’m still making great dividends from the fund. I am putting 50% of the dividend back into the fund and 50% goes into USDC that I stake at 7% on Nexo.

March 2026 Monthly Distribution Information for the NEOS High Income ETF Suite Important Disclosures: This material must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus. To view the prospectus for each ETF, visit: www2.neosfunds.com/High-Income-Su… ETF Fund Pages with Standardized Performance: neosfunds.com/SPYI neosfunds.com/QQQI neosfunds.com/IWMI neosfunds.com/BTCI neosfunds.com/IYRI neosfunds.com/IAUI neosfunds.com/NIHI/ neosfunds.com/NEHI/ neosfunds.com/MLPI/ Distributions made by the Funds have been classified as a return of capital and may be comprised of option premiums, dividends, capital gains, and interest payments. As of the most recent distributions by the funds, the distribution composition was estimated to be return of capital in the following amounts: IWMI = 100%, SPYI = 92%, QQQI = 97%, BTCI = 92%, IYRI = 56%, IAUI = 87%, NIHI = 100%, NEHI = 93%, MLPI = 91%. Please see the 19a-1 notices for a more comprehensive breakdown of monthly distributions on each Fund's page. Distributions are not guaranteed. *The Advisor has contractually agreed to keep the net expenses of IWMI from exceeding 0.68% of the Fund's average daily net assets through September 30, 2026 and the net expenses of NIHI from exceeding 0.68% of the Fund's average daily net assets through September 10, 2026 subject to approval of the agreement by the Board. Without the fee waiver IWMI’s expenses would be 0.78% and NIHI’s expenses would be 0.75%. BTCI’s total annual fund operating expenses are 0.99%. **30-day SEC Yield is calculation based on a formula mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that calculates a fund's hypothetical annualized income, as a percentage of its assets. A security's income, for the purposes of this calculation, is based on the current market yield to maturity (in the case of bonds) or projected dividend yield (for stocks) of the fund's holdings over a trailing 30-day period. This hypothetical income will differ (at times, significantly) from the fund's actual experience; as a result, income distributions from the fund may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield. It is important to note that 30-Day SEC Yield does not include income received from option selling. The data reflects the most recent month-end (02/28/2026). The Unsubsidized 30-day SEC Yield represents what a fund’s 30-day SEC yield would be had no fee waiver been in place over the reporting period. IWMI = 0.54% and NIHI = 2.69%. Distribution Rate: The annualized rate an investor would receive if the Fund’s most recent distribution remained constant. It reflects a single distribution, not the Fund’s total return, and is calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution (multiplying by 12) and dividing by the Fund’s most recent ex-date NAV.

"Had I just held on a little longer, I would have made $25k more!"
"Wish I sold sooner, now I'm staring at a -$15k loss instead of a -$1k loss... sigh."
"Ugh should went heavier or all in, my prediction was correct, but I could have made a fortune if I bought more."
I swear to God, the said above played out at least 3 times over for me today alone.
Any of these thoughts ever run through your head as they do mine?
Confess.
I can't be the only one...

@DollarCostAvg I had 15k $NBIG, sold mine today at $12 and will rebuy if they get to $9
English
One of the main reasons I sold 80% of my $NBIS was to lock in profits while sentiment is still strong.
The recent share dilution tied to the $NVDA deal wasn’t something I was comfortable with. On top of that, the $META agreement doesn’t kick in until the end of 2027, which leaves a long window where more dilution could happen before the real benefits materialize.
For me, the risk/reward started to shift.
So I took profits and de-risked the position. I’m still holding 500 shares, but I’ve already secured 100% of my initial investment back, which puts me in a much better position regardless of what happens next.
Sorry guys. I like $NBIS but I like to lock profits 🔐

Sold my 80 % of $NBIS position, moved it to $IREN. ✅ What do you think?
