It's not easy at all. When I first entered the stock market, I thought making money was easy. The reality proved that what comes too easily is also lost too easily. At most, I lost 80%. After going around in circles, I officially broke even today. I'm now heavily invested in Microsoft. If Microsoft reaches 425, my account will be profitable overall. If it returns to the high point of over 500, I can make a big profit. There's still over 100 in potential upside. Of course, it could also hit a new high. There were many opportunities to break even or even make a killing before, but I didn't hold on firmly, like with NVIDIA, ASML, and Google. These companies are leaders or even giants in their fields. I've been reflecting on why. Maybe I just wasn't determined enough. I really can't think of any major company that could be dramatically better than these. ### Related Stocks - [MSFT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFT.US.md) - [NVDA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [ASML.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ASML.US.md) - [GOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [MSFL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFL.US.md) - [MSFO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFO.US.md) - [MSFD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFD.US.md) - [MSFU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFU.US.md) - [MSFX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFX.US.md) - [MSFY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MSFY.US.md) - [NVDL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [07788.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07788.HK.md) - [07388.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07388.HK.md) - [NVDY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [NVDD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDD.US.md) - [NVDX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [NVDQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDQ.US.md) - [GGLS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLS.US.md) - [GGLL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLL.US.md) ## Comments (16) - **W时空 · 2026-04-19T15:19:40.000Z**: Not bad, same here, I've been trading for half a year and only now have I broken even. - **kami神 · 2026-04-19T05:20:09.000Z**: I feel like you're making too many trades and just going around in circles. - **跟进了解 · 2026-04-17T23:42:14.000Z**: Did you also get in at 500? - **纳斯达克的多头 · 2026-04-17T18:56:53.000Z · 👍 1**: Congratulations on breaking even, I hope I can break even soon too. - **抬头看星星 · 2026-04-17T17:53:22.000Z · 👍 1**: Congratulations on breaking even.
