Abstract
Tiny Limited

Setup

I first heard about Tiny because it’s a sponsor on the Acquired Podcast for Charlie Munger. A holding company that buys profitable internet businesses… that sounds super aligned to me! The weekly MACD (see Figure 2) just turned positive, I had no idea where to set a stop but I did like the idea of owning the stock, so I put up about 500 CAD to get in on 2025-11-11.

Entry

The day after my entry on 2025-11-12, we have a ~3.5ATR breakout (highlighted in green in Figure 3), feeling pretty good about this pick I wanted to size up and naturally when the stock settled back in the “value zone” I bot more but this time with a stop at 9.11 (highlighted in red in Figure 3) based off the low set on 2025-12-30

  • Bot 50 shares @ 8.20 on 2025-11-11
  • Bot 50 shares @ 9.72 on 2026-01-21
  • Bot 50 shares @ 9.61 on 2026-01-23

Stop

one week later, the stock broke thru the slow EMA and on 2026-01-28 had a 3.5ATR downside breakout (see Figure 4). I thought my stop of 9.11 would have been triggered but because there’s so little liquidity (see Table 1) I actually had to step in and manually close it out at 8.35

Sold 150 shares @ 8.35 Loss: 124 CAD

Learning

might get back in now around the low with a stop around the 6.64 low set on 2025-09-10 and just adjust my stop up when there are upside breakouts per the L.TO trade

Tip 1: Stops with Illiquid Stocks

or stocks that are likely to gap1… Use stop orders instead of stop-limit order2

  2. Questrade’s post on stop-limit order actually have various illustrative examples on the difference against a stop order↩︎
