not that Im sad about that prediction
Is anybody else buying anymore of these?
Also, when it comes to US stocks, what’s the charges for selling them on Freetrade?
Sorry, I’m new to this.
I am replying only because you are ‘new to this’.
Stock prices rising means by definition that people are buying. It does not mean they (i.e. people) are doing a good thing. Opposite also holds true: Because people are selling doesn’t mean you should sell. Always beware of people and posts pushing a stock. Buy and sell based on your assessment of value. Always ask yourself what the risk is. Remember that share prices often go through phases and this may not necessarily be because of fundamentals. So for example, it is entirely possible for a profitable business to have a static share price. Work out what is going on. Remember, businesses and business environments change so a ‘gung ho’ stock from yesterday will not necessarily be a ‘gung ho’ stock tomorrow.
Freetrade will not charge you a commission for buying US stock. But you will pay Freetrade a substantial currency exchange fee both on the buy and the sell.

It’s probably better to state what the fee is rather than call it substantial.
- Basic: 0.99%
- Standard: 0.59%
- Plus: 0.39%
I wouldn’t describe it as substantial when there is no dealing fee.

Thank you for your comment. I do agree that the term ‘substantial’ is subjective. Some brokers charge more, some less. I am quite OK with the comment I made.
I am fortunate to pay no currency exchange in my non FT trading account as I trade commission free and in dollars. In one of my ISAs I pay almost no commission and significantly better currency transaction fees than Freetrade. I don’t need to name companies as I am not touting them here. People’s needs are different.
I understand that some FT investors get tetchy and defensive about these things. But sorry, I am allowed to have an opinion and express it in my way.

It’s very rare for anything to keep going up like NVDA is and not plunge 50% at some point. predicting when is the hard part
See Tesla for a recent example

I agree and I got burned by TSLA. I was thinking of selling for a while but never decided to do it. I have created a stop loss for NVDA, so I can avoid a big loss. It will eventually happen it’s a matter of when, not if.
Always learning.

Thanks for your reply.
I only have four shares in Nvidea, from when I bought them last year. Which has recently switched to 40 shares after the split.
They’re with Revolut though, which was when I trust started experimenting with trading. There was no charge on there though.
But, I’m thinking now, as Revolut only seems to deal with stocks on the NY stock exchange, if I wanted to ever buy anymore Nvidea, would it be better to buy on Revolut, or buy a few on Freetrade instead?
I would look at the fees of each platform and where your ISA sits. I don’t know about Revolut fees specifically
This is by far the luckiest investment I did. Luck was all I had with this one, because the reason I invested in NVDA had nothing to do with AI back in 2019. My best return so far as well, almost 1000%. 
Worst of all, I sold half of my position at around $250 a share… It could have been my biggest position…

Is there has NVDA 3X in Freetrade? Because it can trade 3x in Trading 212
No, there isn’t as this isn’t actually a stock. It’s an option and Freetrade does not support options trading.

I believe it’s a leveraged ETF rather than an option, Freetrade does have a few of those. Although I’m not sure if any are for individual stocks
