Woke up to a surge in US stocks, so I took the opportunity to close out the positions in META, Albemarle, and silver that I bought a few days ago, even though I only made three or four hundred bucks. Now thinking about it, I suddenly came up with a new strategy: stay fully invested all year, then use margin to add positions when stocks crash, and close out the margin positions when they rebound. If the plunge continues, I'll keep injecting funds to cover the margin positions, then use margin again, repeating the cycle. As long as the US stock market doesn't go under, I can make money. I won't touch options or leverage; I'll just slowly pick up little sesame seeds. Little sesame seeds roll into big sesame seeds, and big sesame seeds roll into big watermelons...
