You can have your broker send you an automated SMS instead of using stop loss.
I honestly don't get why people feel the need to enter and leave stocks so often. My shares are going to be owned by me for at least 20 years anyway, so I don't give a shit about fluctuations.

>CGC has pumped 121% in 3 months due to these speculative effects
>every other weed stock exhibits the same pattern

I cannot simplify this any further for you. I have explained this several times now. It is a bubble.

What positive things can you say about weed stocks other than "DUDE WEED MIGHT BE LEGALIZED KEK LMAO"?

I don't give a shit about you. You said these stocks aren't worthless, and have been saying they're "good", asking me to prove that they're "not good", and trying to argue that this isn't a bubble.

You haven't actually come up with any investment ideas on your own, you're just riding on the coat tails of people that told you to buy this shit.

Your only argument in favor of these stocks is pure speculation (which reinforces my point) and insulting my investments that you know nothing about. You have not addressed any of my points.

stop losses overcomplicate things. just set aside the money youre willing to lose, and choose the leverage to set liquidation price to your "stop-loss" price.

Depends on the stock but usually 30%. I don't put money into companies that don't have a future though. Only retards buy penny stocks.
