I shared this yesterday w Sanjay.... and I ran out of time.... I am a day late and a dollar short. This sometimes happens.  

Pair at the time was 1.52 GOOG shares for every TSLA

I am waiting for the next oppty. I do believe it is difficult for commercial companies to compete with open source software, because they cannot offer the same level of freedom and flexibility. Maybe they can monetize AI over time but they could also be disrupted over time.  My thesis is Tesla has a far higher chance of doubling ie $320 vs GOOG $220. 

The pair now just breached 1.59. I left over 5% on the table.

Don't beat yourself up over it James! In fact, take pride in the fact that you have taught many of us and we (the students) are perfecting our craft. I nailed 1.53 in my IRA also believing TSLA will outperform GOOG over the next several months. The range on these two has been 1.5 to 3.0 (+/-) over the past few years, so even swapping some at 1.59 today, you'll have a 89% gain when it gets back up to 3.0. :-) Glass is half full buddy.

So still worth a trade at this point?

Where do you house your IRA where you don’t have to wait 2 days for settlement? I spoke with the people at T Rowe Price, and they offer nothing that doesn’t require that settlement time. AND I learned this year that options are not allowed in IRA brokerages. I can DM you on Discourse if this isn’t info you want to share publicly.

All good. TD Ameritrade → Traditional IRA with Margin Trading enabled & Standard Margin Option Trading.

I like these kind of updates. Why? Schadenfreude? No no, not that. But because it is a helpful reminder that even pros don't catch everything.

James- wouldn't it be better to just sell both and hold cash for a bit longer? Seems like risk is much more to the downside all around so better entries later in the year?

Will Tesla run faster than AMZN?

Heh I did this more unfavourably when Google lower but Tesla was lower too. I agree Tesla being faster horse more likely.

That is the eternal dilemma. Sit out and miss possible gains or have conviction all will go down this year and develop nerves of steel to hold fiat

I would have FOMOed into the trade. Good to know that you stick to your principles.

Yes a while ago i was praying for TSLA to hit my target entry of $620 (pre-split), At $170, it is $510 for me, I keep adding whenever I have extra change, sometimes 2 shares, other times more. I keep adding and wishing it keeps falling as I am looking at 5 years out

That would be great , even 75% -80% of that would be good, thanks for the outlook 👍🏻
