I put an order in to sell my VOO shares. I just cancelled it. Hopefully nothing happens Monday. A slight drop is all.

    What? You make a profit when you sell it for more than you paid for it. Any growth before the sale is unrealized gains.

      Thanks for explaining how profits work lmao

      Saying you make your profit when you buy the stock means you have a clear plan on when you’ll be selling the stock. A dip in your stocks is an opportunity to buy, not to sell.
