Gritblast is a pathetic schmuck

So I am going to bare my sole here and lay it all out...A story of self loathing. I first heard of ACU in 2017 on a message board for Natcore, another Solar stock. I read a few articles on seeking Alpha and quickly fell in love with the little company frm Vancouver. By January 2020, I had accumulated 900,000 shares at an average price of $0.08 U.S. Covid hit, and I lost my job in Febuary. By May, I made the decision too sell some, as I was still unemployed. Sold 225,000 for about a dime, leaving 675,000 shares. Comes the present circumstance, and I go ballistic on this board when I learn they are only capturing 5 percent of the value added from Insight. Got spooked when the stock crashed last month, and sold at .32 U.S. Simply did not see this parabolic rise coming. Stil a 3x bagger from my buy point, though, but I coulda been a millionaire if this thing keeps going.

I invested a miniscule amount when the stock was .10.  ...more

Gritblast, stock market is all about risk management. I posted something similar on AT board after selling bulk of my position way too early. Similar experience with XBC. Did ok on both, but could have been life changing if I'd held my early positions. While in hindsight wish I'd held those longer, selling for profits has also saved my bacon at times too. CLY was one where I accumulated a ...more

You have nothing to feel bad about, actually you should proud of yourself for showing discipline and protecting your very substantial profits, I followed UGE for years and totally missed the run and look what it did in the last 52 weeks, I am still in ACU as I feel there is something behind this move, close to 30% of the float traded in the last 2 days on all exchanges, I am hoping this will move ...more
