Seems almost impossible to keep track of individual tickers updates unless they have a dedicated reddit sub that's active, and then a lot of movement is before/after the market anyway where you wouldn't get a chance to avoid any drop.
even if you are on one of the stock sites like T212 that mostly have outside hours for a lot of stocks, you aren't faster than the algorithms, sometimes stocks will drop 10-20% and you google the ticker/company and there's literally 0 news
I mainly just buy tickers I know I will hold for years and don't worry about it.
I started funnelling more into ETFs in recent months though, as I don't really like the valuations of most the companies that interest me.
most the stocks I have now are ones I've already been holding for 1-2years straight
