I have now been invested in Crypto for almost a month. It has been quite the ride so far. Just last week I was up over 50% in my Wealthsimple account and I was up over 40% in my Coinbase account. I was up in my Newton account as well but I decided to consolidate

Playing the GME

This has been a pretty crazy 2 weeks. I have never actually witnessed a short squeeze like this in my whole time investing so far. It has really been an emotional roller-coaster for me personally.
