Accidentally sold all my VOO stocks when I was trying to put in a trailing stop loss. 🥲 Feeling real crap.

Just rebuy an ETF that is 99% similar. Can lock in the loss (if there is one) for tax purposes and then just get back into the market at a similar price. If you think it’s a long term hold then you’re fine

This is also why I don't like stop loss orders. They seem far more likely to sell low on normal fluctuations than to save me from a big loss.

smart

Did this create a gain or loss? If a loss just immediately buy VTI. If a gain, just buy the VOO back

I did something similar a while ago, tried to sell a couple but accidentally sold all. Thankfully it was in IRA as it would have triggered quite a bit of STCG and I was able to buy back for a few cents less later that day. Hopefully yours isn't too painful.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos.

My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
