Do you have a No Go list of stocks

I used to think all stocks when applied with a strategy can be traded profitably (not always for sure) but still consistent enough. Then 4 yrs back I started trading $TSLA. Lo and behold till early 2021 I could never trade it profitably enough (even the maniac 2020 run) which is when I realized that there are indeed certain stocks that might not fit in with your personality and where you seemingly will not make money no matter how hard you try. It has been in my No Go list for 1 year and every time I have been tempted to jump in once in a while during this time, I have lost on a net basis so now it does not even sit on my screen. Would be good to know if others have felt like that for certain stocks
 
Anything beyond of 1.5x of fair value.

If it has tits or tires it will probably give you trouble.

Sounds like the young C.Ichan, after he blew up for the first time -

,,I don't remember who left first, my sports car or the model girlfriend"

Cause & effect, different tho. Yet, similar.
 
No China stocks....I don't trust them, their government, or financial/economic data from there.

Since I rarely 'trade' anymore, no momentum/meme/herd stocks (eg GME, TSLA, ARK, FB, whatever CNBC pundits are talking about week to week, etc, etc.).
 
I've divested of all my China stocks after their government open meddling last year.

There are stocks I've consistently lost money on even after cool down periods. Sometimes I have an itch to get back in them but I'm stronger than that, I won't. Probably. SEDG, ENPH, NTLA, QS...
 
Tobacco stocks. Shows you how corrupt the government is. Government wanted to force me to take an experimental gene therapy drug a few months ago (allegedly for my own good), long-term effects are unknown, provide no liability protection, wanted 50+ years to release all the safety data, no exceptions for natural immunity (which they knew offered better protection), but is fine letting me consume products that are known to cause cancer and disease.
