$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$   DJT is bleeding cash. Regardless of which metric, PE,  ROE, ROA, profits, its points to not just a lousy stock, it's a terrible stock.  I told my friend off who went to sell puts on DJT as the premiums were attractive.

First time I heard about left and right side trading. [LOL]   Usually the terms I am aware of is momentum trading and value investing. Trend following or contrarian investing.  In order not to mix up the directions, I will just comment in terms of momentum trading and contrarian trading.  Momentum trading focuses on identifying new trends early and ride the trend for as long as possible until hit set targets or before reversal of trends.  Contrarian trading focus is on identifying Reversal patterns, usually after bull runs or bearish plunges. Then trying to plan early start to new trend or have additional buffer.  Personally, over the years I realised that trend following doesn't suit my style.  Trend following can't start early without clear signals

This rally could just end up being a relief rally instead of a rally with legs.  Investors/traders are relieved that finally there's more concrete news on robotaxi. However, the bar for disappointment is very high. If the event is merely to say that robotaxi is ready, but no concrete details on when will authorities allow it, it's just saying that tesla now has FSD, but government doesn't allow the usage of FSD. Hands still n
