After today’s rebound I went through the positions of everyone currently copying me, and your name stood out, unfortunately not in the way I’d prefer: showing profits. Out of the 90 people copying me today, you’re one of only 4 still in the red (with 2 of those having just joined today). That’s what I’d call pure bad luck. I truly want to thank you for your trust, especially since my portfolio has surely tested it over the past few weeks. I can’t promise future results, but I can promise my full commitment to doing everything I can to get you back into the green. Staying patient and committed through the rough patches is often what makes the difference in the long run and I’m determined to make that journey worthwhile for both of us.

$TSM - Our position in TSMC was automatically closed at 260$, giving a nice +35% profit since opening it on 15/05/2025. (Sorry I wasn’t available for copy at that time) I remain bullish on the company, but I’m happy with these gains. I’ve set price alerts at 230$, and if it dips below 226$, I’ll be considering a re-entry. $NIO - The stock dropped almost 10% today following a share offering. That’s always frustrating news, but my stance on NIO should be clear by now: I continue to believe in the long-term story despite the bumps along the way. $KLAR - Klarna went public today and although I’m not interested in buying during the early days of the IPO, I am interested since they’re active in the buy now, pay later market, similar as $XYZ which is already part of my portfolio. I’ll be monitoring them closely over the next months. With several positions closed this week, I now hold almost 10% cash in the portfolio. I’ll be looking for new swing trade opportunities, any companies you think I should add to my portfolio? Lets hope this was my last message of the week!

I’m happy with that because my faith in $CRYPTO10 has weakened over the year and over the last few years there’s been a serious cooldown on alt-coins I used to hold ( $ADA $TRX …). I’ve made my decision that I’ll avoid crypto for now, although I will keep my eyes on it and when there are extreme movements I’ll reconsider entering a new position, but in which coin… My overall idea of the current alt-coin market is that we’re not focusing on the quality of a project, its purpose and what the team would like to achieve, but that we’re constantly looking for the next best coin. This behavior is in my opinion destroying the crypto market, on top of that we have rug pulls organized by presidents or other influencers, which is also not adding to the credibility of the market… I am contemplating with the idea of adding a large and longterm $BTC position to my portfolio, but now is not the time (yet). The only coin that I’m willing to add/increase is $TRX , its still an underdog between the alt-coins and the only project that has been somewhat predictable. Don’t get me wrong, I do believe there’s still money to be made with Crypto, I’m just not willing to risk it. Not financial advice.

For my +75 copiers and anyone considering copying me, I need you to understand the risk score that eToro gives to any profile. The risk of my portfolio has been set at a 6/10 for the last 7 days. The higher the number, the higher the volatility. It’s important you understand what this really means: - A higher risk score doesn’t necessarily mean I’m taking reckless decisions, it simply reflects that some of my positions (like $NIO) move up and down more than average. - Volatility is part of the market. While it increases the risk score, it also offers opportunities if we remain patient and disciplined. - If you are copying me, know that short-term fluctuations are normal, but my goal is consistent growth over the long run. I would like to bring down my risk score into the range of 2 to 4, but to do so I would need to sell some $NIO, which I’m not planning to do at this point in time. The stock price is currently bouncing on its lower resistance, if it breaks this resistance, we might see a drop of 10-20%, which means 5-10% overall of my portfolio. I can only recommend reading yourself into Nio as a company and review their financials, after that you'll be hoping that it will drop so you can load up some more of this goodness ;-). 𝗔 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 If you are copying me, make sure your stop loss is set in a way that its inline with my risk score. Setting it lower might cause your copy to close during normal market volatility, even if my strategy is still intact. I recommend checking your copy stop-loss settings and adjusting them so they align. In case you haven't copied me already, but you're not up for such a high volatility, you can still copy me and mitigate this problem by opening a smaller position every month instead of all at once. 🔴 Note that September is statistically wise a red month!

NIO

I’d like to take a moment to address today’s events. This morning, pre-market, $NIO released its Q2 results. As expected, they reported a loss. Following the announcement, the stock dropped around 20% in pre-market trading. Because of eToro’s 24/5 trading functionality, this movement directly impacted our portfolio. Since NIO holds a significant weight in my portfolio, the effect was noticeable. For those who joined yesterday, this even triggered a stop-loss of over 10%, for which I’m truly sorry. Unfortunately, this is exactly the kind of short-term risk I mentioned in my pinned post (see point #1 about timing the market). That said, my conviction in NIO hasn’t changed. I remain extremely bullish on the company. The long-term uptrend is intact: sales are growing, there's still a large cash balance, and I see NIO as a key “golden nugget” in this portfolio.

I’ve made a few new moves in the market: $AEVA I re-entered after the stock dropped around 12% today. As I mentioned yesterday, I had closed my previous position with a small profit, but this pullback gives us an entry point of -15% without any company related news. Let's see how quickly thing swing plays out... $OUST Another player in the LiDAR space that has been on my watchlist for a while. I see today as a good entry point, and the fundamentals look promising. This could be a company I'm willing to add to my long-term list. $SMR A new position in a completely different sector for me. I see potential here and wanted to start building exposure.

Today I closed two positions: 🟡 $AEVA with a +𝟯.𝟮𝟰% profit. Not an amazing return, but after DCA’ing I felt it was the OK to close the position. The gain is at least sufficient to cover any costs made, I’ll be looking to reinvest the freed-up capital elsewhere. 🟢 $RGTI with a +𝟭𝟯.𝟭𝟭% profit. I do believe there’s still some upside here, but as I’m not confident about the short-term profitability of the sector I'd rather not keep it longer as needed. Since this was a technical trade, today’s sharp rise felt like the right moment to lock in gains. With these trades I'm taking profits where they make sense and introduce flexibility for new opportunities. At the end of the day, it’s not a crime to take profit now and then.

I’ve just completed my first month as a Popular Investor, and I’m very grateful to already have 15 copiers who trust me with their investment decisions. That trust means a lot to me. 💸𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵💸 For this month, my portfolio has mainly gone sideways, I've made a couple of positive trades, but also a couple of trades that still need to recover for their earnings. Fortunately $NIO has found some momentum is these last couple of days, resulting in 1 of my copiers having a 7.64% increase since they started copying me since 5th of August!!! However, I'll keep pushing to make sure we can lock this in and start compounding on these profits. 𝗕𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿⁉️ Over this month I sure learned a lot about what it is to become a Popular Investor: how the mechanics work, the idea of investing other people's money, the effect this brings emotionally on me as an individual, ... 1️⃣ 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗶𝘀) When you copy me, you open all positions that I have, but you open it at the current market rate. This means that all positions that I'm holding in profit, are opened at todays market and that when it drops 10%, your position is in a negative 10%, but mine might still be +30% in profit. I hope the @eToroTeam can consider bringing the copying of open/new positions back, but remember that time in the market beats timing the market. In case you'd like to copy me, consider copying a smaller amount, but add a little bit each month. 2️⃣𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 In the current world, the economic market is highly volatile and although BullAware gives my portfolio a Beta of -0.79, it typically reacts in a higher way than what the market does. On top of that, I do not fear sudden drops and can enjoy a small market drop like this week. However, for people with a reserved stoploss I felt pressure that my position would get called, fortunately over this horrible month it did not happen. 3️⃣𝗠𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 I really enjoy the idea of sharing my results with anyone who copies me, I picture Opera Winfrey shouting: "You get a Porsche GT3 RS and you get a Porsche GT3 RS and you ...", so yeah I'm committed to making this work for myself and at the same time also for you. However, I also do this with money that I can miss and I haven't planned for when I will take out some bits, compounding is key at this point in my life! And that is something I felt when making highly speculative trades this month, you might think that I'm crazy in buying this or that, but I have my reasons on why I buy and sell something and I should stick to those. I guess you copied me for a reason, I should just do my own thing and keep going the way its going, right!?! 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁!
