Been investing for a while now. Here are the 3 biggest mistakes I see people repeat:

1. Chasing tickers after they already ran 40%+

By the time it's on your timeline, you're late. The money was made on the setup, not the hype. If you're buying because "everyone's talking about it," you're the exit liquidity.

2. No plan, just vibes

"I'll sell when it feels right" is not a strategy. Every position needs an entry, a target, and a stop. If you don't know when you're getting out, you shouldn't be getting in.

3. Overcomplicating it

You don't need 15 indicators and 3 screens. Pick a simple strategy that works, size your positions properly, and let time do the heavy lifting. Consistency beats complexity every time.

I started JA Investments to help people avoid exactly this. I share clear ticker picks across three categories — beginner-friendly, quick trades, and long-term income plays — all for $10/month.
