Emotional Investor

For me it’s calculated patience. To be fair, last year I made a few bad decisions in retrospect $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ was one. It just has not performed the way I expected. But others like $Archer Aviation Inc.(ACHR)$ and, $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ and $Venture Global, Inc.(VG)$ have recently gone nuts.
Big question for me is do I cut my loss on the nonperformer, and buy more of the ones doing well? Such an emotional decision.
But I’m not emotional, all four to me still remain very positive long term, so I’ll just keep accumulating all

Is Being Quick to Act in Stock Market a Strength or a Risk?

You stare at a stock, tempted to buy. You don’t. Then it jumps. And you regret not acting sooner. A few days later, it dips again and you feel relieved you didn’t buy. But wait... doesn’t this emotional rollercoaster feel like you're still participating in the market even though you never made the trade? Have you ever regretted not buying a stock or buying too fast? Do you believe decisiveness leads to better returns in investing? In your opinion, what’s more important: quick action, or calculated patience?
