1k start to 10k

This is my first time investing in stocks, so right now I’m mainly trying to learn while actually being in the market instead of just watching from the sidelines.

Last week I started looking into companies and sectors that genuinely interest me. I don’t really have a perfect strategy yet because I had to start somewhere. For now I’m just learning on the fly and figuring out what kind of investor I want to be over time.

thing I’m currently thinking about is splitting my portfolio into two separate bags. One for shorter term plays where I can take advantage of momentum or trends, and another one focused on long term investing for like 15+ years. Still working that part out.

Today I opened my first positions:

  • NBIS €300
  • Gold €300
  • MU €300
  • €100 still unspent for now

I know this probably looks random to experienced investors, but for me the main goal right now is getting experience, understanding how stocks move, and slowly building a system that makes sense to me.

Over the next few weeks I’m also going to figure out how much I want to deposit monthly and how I want to manage risk going forward.

Of course I’ll be browsing Reddit like everyone else trying to find those gems that slowly skyrocket over time 😄 But I’d also love to hear some tips from people who’ve been doing this longer.

What YouTube channels, Reddit communities, or social media accounts do you follow for stocks/investing news and research? Wish everyone the best!
