Story from Moderna (1)

Moderna is a US-based pharmacy company. I came to know the company three years ago when the coronavirus outbroke. I opened my USA stock market account at that time.
I tried to trade USA stock on a platform. There were some rumors that Moderna was investing in an effective vaccine for the prevention of coronavirus which later was formally named COVID-19.
I read some news about Moderna and knew it was small but with potential. The company had been developing a new advanced mRNA vaccine for a while and probably would succeed.
I bought 50 stocks, and each stock cost me a bit under $30. To my surprise, the next day, this stock increased by nearly 20%. I couldn't believe it and said to myself: "How easy is it to earn money in the USA." I was complacent about my first investment in the US stock market.
I sold Moderna stock for less than $50 in a month, I earned a little money but I also fell into a betting pool.

What do you mean by “complacent”? What action or attitude did you take that you are describing as complacent?

I sold my Moderna stock for less than $50 in / after a month,. I earned a little money but I also fell into a betting pool.

“Fell into a betting pool” means you started gambling with a group of other people, placing bets on the outcome of sports games or other events. Is this what you mean? If so, how is it related to your sale of Moderna stock?

I was complacent(?) about my first investment in the US stock market.

I was happy to make small money, I guess the “complacent” is a prejudiced word?

I think the stock market like gambling, and stock traders are similar to being involved in a betting pool.

Ok, but that’s not what your sentence says. Instead, maybe you could say, “…but my stock trading became like a gambling habit.”

Complacent means “too satisfied with yourself or with a situation, so that you do not feel that any change is necessary.” It implies that you should have changed something about your investment, but you didn’t.

Maybe you mean you were “contented” instead of “complacent.”
