So my investment portfolio is aggressive and high risk. I go all in about 4 times a year, looking for 20-30%+ outlook. I often don';t sell if the trade goes against me, but instead lengthen the time horizon, provided fundamental change hasn't taken place, in which case a number of 'emergency' exit strategies could be employed but thankfully have not yet had to do so. So in a nutshell, I am a buy and hold investor who goes all in when the conditions are right. 10K becomes 30k within a year via this strategy but I appreciate I am far more stupid and ballsy than most, and one day there may be a black swan event that either keeps me holding for a very long time or having to take a 30% loss on my entire portfolio.
Many ways to skin a cat sums it all up nicely - do what works for you, as long as it is working for you.
Senoir torro and bufaloben. Your comments demonstrate perfectly that there are indeed several ways to skin a cat. Some people prefer shares to property and some people trade shares whereas others simply buy and hold. Some people would buy a property to let out whereas others would look to flip it and buy the next one with a view to owning their forever home mortgage free. Some people will try to own a balanced portfolio of shares with a mix of imcome and growth candidates that they review periodocly and take profits/rebalance whereas others would imsist that the only way to truly make money is to nuy boohoo, stick it in an isa for 20 years and research it daily to convimce yourself you should still hold it! I like to see different points of view but there are some people on here who would do well to remember that whilst ts ok for everyone to go to the pub not everyone has to drimk guiness when they get there!
You should think in terms of percentages to calculate your ROI, but 10k a year is not bad at all. Especially if that's net after all your other expenses. I've been listening to a lot of property folk lately who say either sell right now (if house is sale ready) or wait until 2022 when house prices should be bouncing back pretty hard. The majority seem to think the next year to be a bad time to sell, as prices could dip 10-30% (Which is what I'm hoping for!).
Stick with what works for you anyway - but for me, the property strategies could generate 200% in about 5-6 years, whereas the stock market tends to give me 4 longer term trades at about 30% a year, which I compound and reinvest the profit (powerful). Then I have a small account which I am growing slowly and surely through daytrading and swing trading which has been started with investment profit. The idea being that one day it will be able to replace my salary. The rental income will also do that but I consider that a completely different strategy.
GLTY in your ventures :)

I respect your strategy and see no fault in it if it works for.
I've only got the one property with a reliable client. If I sold now after 2 years I'd be looking at a 20,000 gain. But I'm happy to let it out and have the mortgage paid for me.
I like cashing in most of chips with stocks and having that constant trickle of disposable income.
I spent years never withdrawing cash from my portfolio only for every now and again making an error or failing to spot something and having thousands wiped out. Luckily I'm all house money at moment so my profit is always making me profit.
Please dont think I'm being smug as had I been truly smart or a little more ballsy since March I'd have made 3 to 4 times my annual income from work.
Most shorters are mad.
My strategy is to hold until first quarter of 2021 - Xmas will be huge for BooHoo (my feeling). Looking for an exit of at least 500p.
While property is definitely a good mid-long term investment (though passive income through rentals if done properly can be a very good money maker) it should never be used in place of the stock market which is the best tool by far for creating wealth aggressively.
Personally I am looking to buy my first 2 properties this coming year as house prices dip and wish to start a business renting through serviced accomodation and HMO to get experience with each strategy. The stock market is always going to take first place for me as where else can you make 50% in a day? Sure, some days you are down, and there is more risk, but if done properly and strategically, the Stock Market blows property out of the water in terms of sheer ROI.
You would be mental to short this at 3.50.
I'm holding till results, I might miss out on some pence gains in the run after. But bound to see it drift back and settle into a range but gradually moving up.
I'm a short view with stocks. I like to transfer my paper gains into the kind of paper travel and leisure industry accept. Long term in property.
yeah its caught up now, it was 5 min behind along with freetrade as well.
all good now for another day of hitting F5 lol
319 for me, but I’ll take your number as it’s more favourable Toro.
Seems fine?
