Let me add a bit of backstory. I bought this stock that was going up and down like a roller-coaster. I decided that I was ready to lose up to 20% with the opportunity to double my capital.
What happened next is that when it was around -20%, the government commission that regulates that stock exchange (something that may not exist in the USA, I don't know) took the stock out of the market.
After a few months the stock was on the market again with a very reduced price (-70%). I had no way to sell in the meanwhile. So now I find myself with a very painful -80% on half of my capital, or -40% total. We are talking about almost 100k euros.
Yeah, that hurts.
