TSLA down another 6 percent today. Should I close my TSLA short and lock in 220% gain ?

IMO, you shouldn’t have started another Tesla thread when there’s already another highly trafficked and active one that’s 12 pages on this board. Just my $0.02

r/wallstreetbets would ban you for not posting the proof.

Man, you are sooo good. TSLQ is only up 117% . I think you should have conviction and hold your imaginary short until December at least.

I bought TSLQ in December for under 21.
It's now over 65.

Do you need a calculator ?

This shows you don't know what you're doing.

The fact that I am up 220% in 3 months while the stock market is crashing shows that I don't know what I am doing ?
Yeah, that makes sense.

If you are an investor, you should hold an ownership stake IF you think the company over the next 10 years will continue to be profitable.

If you think the company cannot prosper in the next decade SELL.

I’m not in Tesla. I don’t think the grid is ready for massive amounts of electric only vehicles.

I have no opinion on the stock.

People who create alters just to obviously troll every board have a very niche set of narcissistic mental problems.

I'll answer without reading the thread, just so other posts don't influence me, so SIAP:

When evaluating a stock, pretend as though you don't already own it, with one exception I'll discuss at the end.

If you were sitting on money instead of stock, would you purchase said stock today? If you would, hold it. If you wouldn't, sell it and buy something else. The fact that you currently own it really shouldn't really affect your analysis, except...

If you're selling for a capital gain, take into consideration how long you've held the stock and whether holding longer will get you into long term territory instead of selling at short term.

The fact that you are mentioning your return as a consideration for making a forward-looking decision means you don't understand the basics of investing, yes.

I can't hold a stock. When I see a position I have go up. I sell the stock. I am probably doing it wrong.

You are focused on price.
Focus on value.

I’ve traded many stocks, but the best investments I’ve made in stocks are when I hold good companies for decades.
