-$41 realized this session · running total since April below

A slow week. On June 18 I bought 300 shares of Tilray (TLRY) at $4.75. On the 24th I sold them at $4.61 for -$41. Small position, small loss, no drama.

Back into SPCE

More interesting: the same day I bought 250 shares of SPCE at $2.76 — almost exactly the price I'd first bought it at back in April, after it had round-tripped the entire squeeze. The stock that made me $3,523 was back where it started. Read: the position I did nothing with for six weeks, and what it paid →

I sold those 250 shares the very next day for a rounding-error loss. Which is its own small comment: in April I bought SPCE and held it six weeks for thousands. In June I bought the same stock at the same price and held it one day.

Same ticker, same price, completely different holding period — because by June I'd stopped thinking of myself as someone who holds anything.

Running total: +$5,011. Read: what 890 trades looked like once I reconstructed the statement →
