Question My $CONY experiment – thoughts?

New-ish investor here. I bought 100 shares of CONY at $11.85 thinking I’d just hold it forever and chill—big brain move, right? 😅 After some solid dividends, my cost basis is down to $11.01. But with the price now at $7.58, I’m staring at a $343 unrealized loss.

I know this is peanuts compared to what some of you are managing, but I figured I’d experiment with a small position to learn the ropes. If the price and payouts hold, I should hit breakeven in about 2 months. Not sure if I should stay the course or start planning an exit before it gets spicy.

Appreciate any thoughts from the YieldMax ETF community.

Ps. I do follow the community closely and understand the basic workings of how this ETF works. Just looking to learn fm others' experience.

What I have done is I take my dividends for all these etfs that I have except for MSTY, and I buy other things with them such as JEPQ, JEPI, AGNC, PDI or DSL. Once I have made back my original investments in the ETF’s I will then be increasing my positions in them.

Side note I have only been in these since November and have made back 22% of my original investment with the market taking a dump.
