The history of transactions

Today I will share with you the history of my best investment so far in my real wallet and also in the Warsaw Stock Exchange Freedom Portfolio.

Check my video where I talk about my last transaction on CD Projekt shares

UPDATE!

A new post explaining how to buy shares of CD Projekt

UPDATE!

I bought the first shares of the company CD Projekt (stock ticker WSE: CDR) on 26th November 2013. The price was then 14.80 PLN. I sold the company in April 2017 – the average sale price reached 71.79 PLN. The profit during those less than three and a half years was +385.07%.

In the Warsaw Stock Exchange Freedom Portfolio, the company was present from its beginning. During this time it made gains +187.39%.

In the chart above, you can see the moments of buying (green dot) and selling (red dot) the shares of the company.

After buying the shares of CD Projekt, the price was going up while they were preparing their product – the game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. It turned out to be a great success. The game won various Game of the Year awards. Later, they released two expansion packs to The Witcher 3, which were financial successes too. And now they are working on Gwent: The Witcher Card Game and Cyberpunk 2077.

Closing the position

I decided to sell the shares. During the last year, the price went up +163.94%. The success of the game The Witcher 3 and high hopes related to further successes of the company made CD Projekt one of the most valuable company on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. For me, the sign for selling was the recommendation of the stockbroker, mentioning that this is a company which every investor should have in his wallet. Such optimism is usually the pick point, and I prefer to stay behind and observe the situation. I still think it is a company with great potential, but now the shares price and expectations seem to me to be quite high.

  1. I’m in Greece and i recently bought some CD Projekt shares not so much because of the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 game but because the chart of the share price is the best i’ve ever seen. It has a very clear upward trajectory that you don’t find often.

  2. It’s the easiest to buy if You live in Poland :-). Now CD Projekt is about 369 złoty… If the Cyberpunk will be success, who know how far we will go… LPP in Poland is about 6285 zlotych.

    This is not an recommendation, You choice, Your risk, but check other Polish(especially game) companies as well. The Playway for example made from 200 złoty(last year) to about 415 złoty today. Some other companies like The Dust, may or have now signed famous authors, and who know if they aren’t new CD Projekt in some years…

    The Poland have fastly one of the biggest Wikipedias in the World, and it just show how many potential workers with ideas, are ready for Game world. WIG Games(the index of gaming companies in Poland), made more than 10000 points, from last year, and I am really suprised that there aren’t any ETFs investing in it…

    • Yes, that is true. CD Projekt was my best investment. But last year I accumulated much more shares of CD Projekt, Playway, Ten Square Games and 11 Bit Studios. I plan on keeping these shares for the long term.
