General question: is there any certain “rule of thumb” post that you sell to take profiles? I’ve seen some experts (“”) say to always collect at 20% and others say until you see a reason to sell. Asking as rearranged last week and luckily got into the airlines before they exploded and now I’m sitting about 50% up on delta. And after selling Zoom way to early (used to buy my delta), I’m not sure whether to take the cash or let it ride more. This fast a rally makes me think it will plummet soon

If Stocks - I don't have any, I don't swing trade stocks. But yes, I would likely sell airlines except for BA.

Options is different, have a target of "x" because if you get greedy you get burned

Point, not post. Won’t let me edit it 😑

Following because same: i’m in Alaskan, delta, Boeing, and Honeywell. Thinking about getting out of Delta and Alaskan and staying in the others.

I’d say it depends if you’re a long term or short term investor. I’m also sitting on some profits for delta and will be riding it out. If the price drops I’m average-costing more in. It’s too hard to try to find a “good time” right now. I’m also investing for the long-term so I’m not very concerned.

I have to support my family financially. Usually my mom cooks for the family so groceries only cost $1200/month. However, my mom is abroad for 2 months so it’s just my siblings and they can’t cook so they’ve been using my card for doordash. I think there are days when they spend $100+/day. It’s frustrating because my mom already told them the daily budget repeatedly. I’ll go bankrupt at that rate. However, it’s not like I can take my card back since I don’t want them to starve…
