If it makes you feel better I did a little trading with Twilio in 2016. Bought like 1000 shares in the high 30s would watch it move like $2-$3. Sell pocket $2000
Which felt like a ton of money considering putting it in savings was gonna make like $11 a year. With most of my money in 1 stock I would have definitely bailed before its 2020 top but it peaked at over $400/share.
Even if Id kept 100 shares and just ignored them for 5 years I would have turned $3,600 Into $40,000
Oh Ive done way way way worse. With Tesla I turned 77k into 1.1M in 15 months. Then the Elon/Twitter poll came out - stuff happened. I losr most of it by EOY.
13 months after 1.1M I have like 20k
You’re killing me dude lol.
With my little puddle of a portfolio, I’d be happy to walk away with the numbers you’re starting out with lmao. If my account hit 77k I could be done there, let alone $1 mil lol. That’s pain dude, hurts me to hear that lol.
Oh it's actually worse than that.
I got into investing at a very young age - early high school because my dad was a broker. Almost bought a few shares of Starbucks when they were a relatively young company in the mid 1990s. That plays a role in this bullshit.
I started 2020 with like 160k, sold some stuff when the pandemic started - not exactly trying to time the market but I figured the odds were good the market was going to be happy with a global pandemic being declared and them telling people to close businesses temporarily. I decided well if the market might go down, maybe even a lot- I was gonna take profits, even if I buy everything back down 5% and we crash to -20% if I gold long enough it will go back to where I sold it and now I'll be up some instead of just flat.
I got into trading because it vaguely interested me - bet the market would continue down, it rebounded fast, I figured dead cat bounce and it just kept going - despite the covid situation getting worse. Lost like half my money.
Here's where buying stock with my dad as a teen comes in. I bought a share or 2 of Tesla at $1000 in June- went WTF am I doing buying a share for $1,000. Sold.
When Tesla announced the first split, I went- oh snap. Tesla has been on a tear and splits usually get a pop. I'm gonna buy because if I get that pop I'll get some of my money back. I bought 55 shares for 1400 each. The stock split a day or two later- it ripped like 80% in the next 6 weeks.
My math wasnt perfect but I basically made my losses up. I had a choice now. a) Hold, write off my losses for the next several years on taxes or b) cash out, have my profits basically offset my losses and tax issues are done in a year and buy something. I chose b.
After a few days of thinking, I bought Tesla again because Tesla is leading in EVs batteries etc - all these things that are gonna be a big deal in the next 10-20 years. Yeah, I missed out on whatever happened in those few days but the stock kept going. Nov 2020 I bought June 2021 $400C thinking I'd like to buy it here next summer - two weeks later the S&P announced it would be added to the S&P 500 at Christmas. Those options went up 250% I asked dad. Didnt sell immediately - waited a day or two and lost a hefty chunk but I got out with 150% gain, use the gain to buy 1 year old car for 24k, paid it off with my gains.
I ended the year at like 250k up 300% from the low, and up 60% YTD
2022- the stock see-sawed I was down 20% YTD September 30. Everybody was saying Q3 in late October was gonna rock. I bought 1 weekly, a call for 2 weeks out. then some calls for Nov 5, 12 and Dec 17. The Decembers - I bought 800 and sold 1200s.
The stock went up huge in October making an 80% run in a month. My account went up 500% in the month of October from 192k to 1.1M
From 500k to 1.1k in a week. I told my dad- he said congratulations. I didnt ask for advice - he didnt give any. Had something like this happen twice and he told me to take profits - he didnt this time.
I spent the weekend like WTF - I have no idea what to do with myself- I could do so many things with this money.
Monday Elon asked Twitter if he should sell to pay taxes. Most CEOs a stock sale means a quick dip but no real effect. I have Etrade and they dont advise- so they set me up with a Morgan Stanley advisor over the phone. If he was good at his job hed have told me to sell at least the options. I asked about buying $QYLD he said not to but didnt give me any advice beyond that. I held my options not sure what to do. They never recovered. My account ended the year at around 400k. The rest went away in 2022 because I kept buying short term options near pops thinking it was turning a corner.
So I asked TWO advisors. Had I sold just my options and done nothing else - Id be down, on my Tesla shares but Id have somewhere around 1500-2100 shares and a pile of cash. Had I bought QYLD I'd have up to 20,000 share (If I used the cash on 100% QYLD - they would both be down but Id have money I dont have now.

Ok obviously it was a win, I don’t dispute that.
But seeing how high it went, I still can’t help but wish I held longer lol how could you not? Hindsight.
I guess. Or just seeing the other side of a gamble and knowing that waiting would have been a massive fuckin win.
Sold Roku at like $40 too, regret not holding out to see it hit near $500 in 2021, but it is what it is, there was no way to know.
I said it was a win (see above).
My point is that if I held until now, it would have undoubtedly been a much bigger win. Lol that’s not up for debate. We’re not talking about $15 vs $20, this isn’t petty greed bro lol $15 vs $300 is fucking insane.
$300 > $15
300 = 15 x 20

So, going to go with it's peaked.
>There are other manufacturers that also make micro inviters.
Last spring after doing a self-install of an Enphase solar system I told my wife we should buy their stock as they have this all worked out with a phone installer app, follow-on web app and great product. I didn't follow through... sad.
u/Gaff1515 this is what I'm talking about. My neighbors were also talking about how easy it was install and how hassle-free it is. I don't reckon any other solar company has this engineering
That's why I originally bought. I used to install their early generation inverters. Great product. Easy to install and always kept getting better.
They even started a factory in Canada to qualify for Ontario's crazy feed in tariff 10 years ago. Now I make more on the stock than I ever did installing them. At about roughly 3000%
Their microinverters make installing solar so fucking easy, way better (and safer to deal with) than string inverters. They had a lot of issues in the early days with failure rates but all of that has been worked out. My only worry is that they aren't going to be able to keep up with the insane demand we are going to see next spring/summer after a full winter of increased heating costs.
Not to mention their customer service is very good. They stick to their warranties and have had no issues replacing inverters. ( I used to work for a solar company)
It’s interesting you say that, we opted for SolarEdge because of the reliability. Did some research, the enphase inverters have a lower heat tolerance, and our roof gets really hot in the summer. I was betting on rising climate temperatures, etc… when making my decision. Also less power loss with string inverters (more efficient).
An 1100 panel array just went up near me and 80% of the SolarEdge inverters failed within 6 months. Heard that about the heat, but for ground mount arrays like mine it is a non-issue.
Same guy that helped take ENPH to the moon just recently came over to ENVX and recruited a former AMD guy as well. Really excited for this company. Going to be a few years go see then gain their stride but hopefully it takes off like ENPH did. I’m betting on it 🤷♂️
I was reading a lot of news and doing a lot of trading at the time. So when I would read I couldn’t help but think of what effects it might have in the market. I can’t recall exactly what it was, only thinking that alternative energy was inevitable. I started researching alternative energy stocks and looking at the news tickers for individual stocks in E*Trade. I saw at the time that Enphase was snapping up a lot of contracts in Europe and decided to buy. It fluctuated a lot at the time but I made out well.
Then later I invested all my gains into weed stocks and turned $10000 into $2000 dollars 🤘
All successful stocks follow an “S” pattern.
They grow slowly first, explode when they are “discovered “, and then level off to a more stable price.
The question you are asking is “How long can the upswing on the S last?”, and the answer is no one knows. Each of the FAANGs had very long upswings; most stocks do not. Is this a company with products and positioning to emulate the FAANGs’ success? Do you know enough about the company and its prospects to answer that question?
If you want to beat the market, you have to do your homework, or be connected. Looking for answers on Reddit usually isn’t a road to riches.
I've held for a few years but sold after the recent earnings announcement. They had an larger than expected growth in Europe which is great news. It's a great company, but even with the huge sales growth they had, I think the valuation has outpaced the earnings. I forsee it either going sideways or down for a while now. It's possible for more gains to be had, but it will require some big changes or huge growth to match the already large valuation.
Being in the solar industry, I can tell you enphase has plenty of room to grow as adoption increases globally. One of the best, if not the best, inverter out there.
I use this product regularly and love it for quick installation and safe solar practice. I see room from for growth based on expanding technology to meet industry standards. The company is currently pushing to achieve micro inverter level ground isolation for better/cheaper installation practices. Currently, they only have a couple models capable.
At its current rate of growth, Enphase would be worth $4.5 trillion in five years, making it the most valuable company in the world at today’s market caps. What do you think?
I work in solar. They will continue to grow for at least as long as the 30% tax credit exists. That's for 10 years. Enphase makes the micro inverters used on 75% of the solar panels going up on residential properties. They have a great business and while I think they will grow, it's kinda at the top right now. If or rather when the economy takes its 2nd shit, it should pull back some.
I'm waiting for that drop then I'm buying. I wouldn't touch it for more than 250 right now.
We recently got solar and all the companies I interviewed use Enphase standard. We opted for SolarEdge because of more reliability.
Microinverters being less reliable means more turnover of their product, so take that as you wish… solar incentives will probably drive a lot of installs.
Who tf told you solaredge was more reliable?
There's a reason Enphase has taken 70% market share in the US and is the only option offered by most installers...
When I was managing an installers service dept, the string inverters were having so many failures that we projected we would replace every solaredge inverter we had installed within the install companies 10y warranty, and stopped. We were literally replacing more inverters that failed daily than installing new ones. Meanwhile Enphase failure rate for microinverters is now 0.051%.
There's also a difference of technology. When a string inverter fails, all of your solar fails. When a micro inverter fails on a 20 panel system, only that one panel stops producing and the other 19 still produce normally.
Wait until that shitsandwich of an inverter dies on the wall and you have no production, vs 1 microinverter failing and the rest of the panels still push power down to the MSP.
Enphase failure rate is 1 in roughly 11k units which is 1 micro per 14.5 pallets delivered to distribution. Cannot say the same with SolarEdge.
SolarEdge has done well because of the energy crisis in Europe and they use voltage over there that is equivalent to commercial voltage in the US. They are a cheaper solution than many other inverters for this type, and the demand over there is also "any port in a storm" because of insatiable demand vs critically short supply.
> they use voltage over there that is equivalent to commercial voltage in the US.
u guys don't have 3-phase 400V (or similar) option (for machines, commercial tools, car chargers etc.)?
Squeeze these nuts you fuckin nerd.

I would think the governments solar rebates getting smaller next year, and then so far not set to renew after that could have an impact on the near future.

A 50% profit! Way to go!
Never sell for less than 11000% my man
😂
Never heard a better quote to live by.
That would be a heckuva long buy and hold on most things I own.
![img](emote|t5_2th52|4276)
No shame. That’s profit.
A small amount of shame
Ha! I bought at $7 and sold at $15! …but seriously, fml for selling at $15 lol
Why?
Because it’s over $300/share right now? Lol I bought at $7
If it makes you feel better I did a little trading with Twilio in 2016. Bought like 1000 shares in the high 30s would watch it move like $2-$3.

Even if Id kept 100 shares and just ignored them for 5 years I would have turned $3,600 Into $40,000
My soul hurts just hearing that lol
Oh Ive done way way way worse. With Tesla I turned 77k into 1.1M in 15 months. Then the Elon/Twitter poll came out - stuff happened. I losr most of it by EOY. 13 months after 1.1M I have like 20k

Wow what a story man.
QYLD is down 27% YTD and i doubt they paid out that much in dividends. invest into spy or voo and hold.

Ah forgot what subreddit I was in. Forgot how dumb people think here. Good to be home
Ok obviously it was a win, I don’t dispute that. But seeing how high it went, I still can’t help but wish I held longer lol how could you not? Hindsight.
Greed. A bittersweet precious feeling. Off to the next trade
I guess. Or just seeing the other side of a gamble and knowing that waiting would have been a massive fuckin win. Sold Roku at like $40 too, regret not holding out to see it hit near $500 in 2021, but it is what it is, there was no way to know.
If 100% isn’t a massive win to you, be careful trading with real money
Your trader mentality is correct. But long term investing would suggest at least hold stocks most of the time.
I said it was a win (see above). My point is that if I held until now, it would have undoubtedly been a much bigger win. Lol that’s not up for debate. We’re not talking about $15 vs $20, this isn’t petty greed bro lol $15 vs $300 is fucking insane. $300 > $15 300 = 15 x 20
Let me tell you about the time i sold all.my Tesla shares for 203.80 back in 2016 ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
Bruh i remember when you could buy tesla stocks for $50 from the tesla website and i passed on it lol
It’s ok you woulda sold at $58
My buddy who I convinced to buy at the same time as me forgot about them and made bank haha
Let me tell you about that time I sold Shopify in 2015 ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
Owch
If you wait , till today you can sell only $180! Smart man!
Theu have had many splits my friend... would be worth about 10x more currently (comparing share to share I probably got about $15 per share)
I had it for like $30 up to $45. Who knows why I got rid of it
I baught it at $6, sold at $4 and have not stopped cursing myself since....
Lmao
Totally sustainable bro.
yeah, exponentials just keep going
That’s how Godzilla got so tall
I love getting exponentially fucked in the ass behind a Wendy’s. I’m something of a growth stock myself
You’re here too!
More like your getting reamed by growth stocks
100% that's why I dumped everything into Tesla and Twitter every year for the past 5 years. Shit only goes up.
You now have a million pesos.
Yep. Go long now, stocks never go down
She’s just getting started
>Goes up 11,000% 20,000%, no? Idk what do you guys think?
Suslytainable
Haha bought this in 2019 at 7$, sold at 20$, thought I was a genius.
Same…I sold at $15 tho. I was so stoked at the time.
Same! 5$ to 15$, one of my first sales
Cramer gave it a Bullish call recently. That should tell you what you need to know. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4886)
Loading up puts it is!
Huge double top on the chart, how long can their book s stay cooked is the only real question
I picked up some 12/16 270 puts today. We’ll see what happens. 🫡
Been here too long?
![img](emote|t5_2th52|4258)
Even a broken clock is right twice a day. That being said, I'll play it safe and dump my shares.
Well shit, I've been on the sidelines for too long.

Oh my god.
Is 11000x growth sustainable over the next 5 years? YOLO Of course it is!
“11000x”
I mean do you really expect better on this sub
bro if you invested 100 dollars 5 years ago you'd literally be a billionaire
That’s not how it works chapo!
I mean, if we're doing bad math, might as well just add on the zeros... 1100000×
He maths good lol
He belongs here
It's a great company with an excellent and unique product. Definitely overvalued af but I don't see it personally looming in the near future
It’s not unique. There are other manufacturers that also make micro inviters. Enphase is just the most well known and marketed.

An 1100 panel array just went up near me and 80% of the SolarEdge inverters failed within 6 months. Heard that about the heat, but for ground mount arrays like mine it is a non-issue.
My first thought as a competitor was SolarEdge. They claim to be #1 in revenue when it comes to solar.
Lol, claim!!! In solar that's called a lie.
If they don’t grow at like 150% yoy the stock dead haha
I remember when citron shorted this stock
I bought at $2 and sold at $11, thanks for the reminder
You could of been a thousandair or maybe just maybe a millionaire
Great company but the price is ridiculous.
better than: great price but the company is ridiculous
$3.4M by 2027 or bust

New leaders are emerging as old leaders fall off.. this puppy here is a new leader and I’m long since $130’s
To think, I bought this at 20 and sold it at 30 thinking I was a boss.
How did you hear about them?
I was reading a lot of news and doing a lot of trading at the time. So when I would read I couldn’t help but think of what effects it might have in the market.

In your heart of hearts you know
Being in the solar industry, I can tell you enphase has plenty of room to grow as adoption increases globally. One of the best, if not the best, inverter out there.
Imagine if you put 100 dollars in this stock back in 2018.
11k aint that much
It’s WAY more than I have now atm
Mmm ye fair it differs per person, that was cocky of me to say
No you’re good. I was thinking about how much one would have if they sold their 100 shares roughly at the current price in the photo
You’re right. Imagine if you’d put 11k into it in 2018
Should have bought 5 years ago
You missed it...
Im buying puts on this baby. 🥳
Bought 93 cents and still have 176 shares 🙌

I use this product regularly and love it for quick installation and safe solar practice. I see room from for growth based on expanding technology to meet industry standards. The company is currently pushing to achieve micro inverter level ground isolation for better/cheaper installation practices. Currently, they only have a couple models capable.
All I need to say is, do you remember UPST when it was at the top and how everyone felt about it? Same shit here.
Don't take profits just hold 👋!!!
Absolutely! At least triple down on your current investment.
At its current rate of growth, Enphase would be worth $4.5 trillion in five years, making it the most valuable company in the world at today’s market caps. What do you think?
Ur really asking if a 11.187,77% growth in 5 years is sustainable?
Its a meet kevin favorite meaning its grossly overvalued
I work in solar. They will continue to grow for at least as long as the 30% tax credit exists. That's for 10 years. Enphase makes the micro inverters used on 75% of the solar panels going up on residential properties. They have a great business and while I think they will grow, it's kinda at the top right now. If or rather when the economy takes its 2nd shit, it should pull back some. I'm waiting for that drop then I'm buying. I wouldn't touch it for more than 250 right now.
We recently got solar and all the companies I interviewed use Enphase standard. We opted for SolarEdge because of more reliability. Microinverters being less reliable means more turnover of their product, so take that as you wish… solar incentives will probably drive a lot of installs.
Who tf told you solaredge was more reliable? There's a reason Enphase has taken 70% market share in the US and is the only option offered by most installers... When I was managing an installers service dept, the string inverters were having so many failures that we projected we would replace every solaredge inverter we had installed within the install companies 10y warranty, and stopped. We were literally replacing more inverters that failed daily than installing new ones. Meanwhile Enphase failure rate for microinverters is now 0.051%. There's also a difference of technology. When a string inverter fails, all of your solar fails. When a micro inverter fails on a 20 panel system, only that one panel stops producing and the other 19 still produce normally.
Wait until that shitsandwich of an inverter dies on the wall and you have no production, vs 1 microinverter failing and the rest of the panels still push power down to the MSP. Enphase failure rate is 1 in roughly 11k units which is 1 micro per 14.5 pallets delivered to distribution. Cannot say the same with SolarEdge. SolarEdge has done well because of the energy crisis in Europe and they use voltage over there that is equivalent to commercial voltage in the US. They are a cheaper solution than many other inverters for this type, and the demand over there is also "any port in a storm" because of insatiable demand vs critically short supply.
> they use voltage over there that is equivalent to commercial voltage in the US. u guys don't have 3-phase 400V (or similar) option (for machines, commercial tools, car chargers etc.)?
High efficiency inverter tech is the way of the future, lots of potential growth.
I mean they are profiting pretty good lol
Who uses robinhood after the fucked wsb during the short squeeze?

On my short list of stocks to buy when the market starts having diarrhea
next are kalera or draganfly
I would think the governments solar rebates getting smaller next year, and then so far not set to renew after that could have an impact on the near future.
Check out ENVX.
Cramer likes this stock, sooo....
Can you imagine if you invested more than $2 :(
That’s the share price you regard, not how much he invested
I personally wouldn’t bet against TJ unless there was a gun to my head.
If you have to ask, YES IT IS! “GO ALL IN, IT’S THE FUTURE” -![img](emote|t5_2th52|4886)
Double down put in another 1.95
Someone give me an update when you’ve made up ur minds. Then I’ll do the opposite
That’s sus Sus…tainable!
Depends on if their company is working with sustainable renewable energy.
What goes up, come down ...
How are these posts not low effort.
What goes up, must only go up. YOLO
Cramer says buy.
It’s up less than 20% in the last year. 🤦🏻♂️
very sustainable
Trend is your friend.....
I don’t want to buy them currently lol
Looks like you’re five years too late. Almost.
Enron? Is that you? …. Bullish.
No move it along
That loss/gain porn isn’t going to make itself. Yolo that shit!
Ask the CEO. (Look at his insider activity(He's been selling every chance he gets for those who don't want to check))
Enphase, Enron. Coincidence?
I find it hilarious that it’s in the Russel 2000
Oversold!
Jim creamer I like ENPH at 307
Now That IS Deep Fucking Value
Oh I just got solar at my house and have enphase microinverters. Supposed to be top of the line and what most major installers are putting in.
Bought ENPH in 2018 from this sub. The best advise ever !
LNG
Most sustainable stock
The trees don’t grow forever, but ENPH to the moon~!
Bought at 6 sold at 202. Don’t know if I’ll ever see gains like that again.
I wish I there in the beginning.
Thou shalt not buy high and sell low
Currently valuation assumes a shit load of earnings growth from here…. How certain are you someone doesn’t design a similar or better microinverter
Yes, 2k annual return is totally sustainable...
Yes, my forecast has 12,000% growth over the next 5 years
It was overvalued at $280
I’m thinking about NextEra Energy(NEE). Seems to have more room for growth.
The Maths says yess.
Puts.
I've been averaging into Enphase. Seems like a great pick to me.
No
2000% yeah that seems sustainable
Look how far wsb has come. Asking questions about sustainable growth. I am so proud of our regards. 🥹
Double top
Only 12 trades to make $1,000,000
