On mobile, it prompts you to either "get the app" or "open app" with no way to click past. Screenshot won't upload.

Maybe I shouldn't have bought their stock a while ago... but it was so cheap 😅

I guess I'm stuck with it now 😑

You can sell it?

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But only if you sell it to a logged in account.

i would make a loss because of the tax on stock trades in my country and the fee of my banks broker ☹

but, as I mentioned it was kinda cheap, so not much money stuck in it. (i only trade shares for fun. i spend the money from my gaming budget on it, since i'm not very interested in new PC and console games any more.)

Depending on your country you might be able to do the following:

Use the loss to offset capital gains on other stocks you sell
Deduct the brokers fees from your taxable income.
