    my gut was my friend telling me bail Monday and buy again lower. Wasn’t expecting THIS much lower though.

    Yeah I’m setting trailing stop losses from now on.

    I have no idea how to do the stop losses on robinhood. Ugh.

    I’d be surprised if you can’t. I just don’t have any securities on RH to test it out. While the markets going down like this just set a limit sale yourself.

    I just cancelled my stop market order. Looks like nrgu is going to divebomb at the open so I’d probably sell at a loss anyway. Might as well just hold on now. I’ll probably leave my stuff sight unseen for the day. See no evil bear no evil sort of day. I’m in it long haul anyway.

    Trailing stops are a better suited for a calmer market - need to watch them closely when we're having wild swings like now -- a swing can strip your shares on a stop loss and then quickly go back up leaving you gapped.

    I’m anxiously waiting for my extra $500 to clear in robinhood so I can buy more NRGU

    If we have a BIG oil drop don't be shy about taking some OXY in the $15 range...

    OMG these assholes "inventing" masks that open and close are morons...That's not how it works...If the mask isn't N95 and you touch a surface that has spit on on it or someone gets snot/spit on a doorknob and then you touch your mask...the spit dries and you inhale the virus particles right through mask...YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE TOUCHING YOUR MASK...

    I cut a nose and mouth holes in mine for better ventilation. I can breathe much better now!

    that’s just stupid. i have tied in clips on bandanas for easy on off that’s been nice. have also seen clear plastic masks used for (at least the intention is) dementia patients. But would work well for a lot of reasons. Not cheap though.

    I’m just holding on sinking with the ship today. Going with the gut next time.

    Dividend increase by TGT today, for the 53rd year in a row. Investing doesn't have to be so complicated if you just buy great companies.

    I am pretty sure 90%+ of people do the opposite...
