$Figure Technology Solutions (FIGR.US)$ & $Gemini Space Station (GEMI.US)$ just dropped their IPO subscriptions, and I'm already ALL IN on both. 💸
Why both? C'mon, we're not here to play it safe. 😤 FIGR's got that tech disruption sauce, and GEMI? Their fintech vibes are chef's kiss. Could one flop? Maybe. But could one pop 50%+ Day 1? That's the game. 🎰
Here's how to get your slice (no suit required):
1️⃣ Slap "IPO" in the search bar, and...

1. Thoughts Before Investment: Are you ready?
Recently, many readers have contacted me for investment advice, including questions such as: "Which stocks are worth paying attention to?" "What types of ETFs can be deployed?" "What target should be set for this year?" These questions reflect everyone's concern about market trends, but before answering, I want to pose a more important question: **Are you prepared with the right mindset and capital allocation?**
Before investing, one should clarify how much cash is held and what percentage is allocated for savings; at the same time, determine whether oneself is a short-term, medium-term, or long-term investor, and assess the personal risk tolerance. These aspects are crucial and are key points of risk management that have been emphasized for many years. For example, if one is a short-term investor but cannot pay attention to market conditions due to work, it may interfere with decision-making, making a medium to long-term strategy more suitable. If the risk tolerance is relatively low, priority should be given to investing in stable dividend stocks or ETFs. Understanding personal positioning and abilities before investing will help in formulating a more robust strategy.

2. Principles of capital allocation: Avoid putting all eggs in one basket, and it is advisable to retain cash.
In terms of capital allocation, I want to emphasize an important concept again: **Investing is not a game of going all in and out.** Gradually building positions can reduce the chances of making judgment errors and helps alleviate investment pressure. I personally insist on investing only with idle funds, and if there is a possibility in the short term...

WHY CHARTING MATTERS FOR OPTIONS
• Options lose value with time (theta) and move differently than stocks (based on delta, gamma, etc.).
• You don’t just need a stock to go “up” — it needs to move fast and in the right timing.
• That’s why charting is key: it helps you time your entries before the momentum happens.
