IVV
iShares Core S&P 500 ETF
stock NYSE ETF

Even if you bought IVV at the peak in February 2020 when S&P500 was 3300, you will still be up 75% today. Just remember you are investing in ETFs for the long run. I suggest to setup DCA, stop checking your account and even delete the app.

Being early is the same as being wrong.
I am all in on a CD right now, one expires in 6 months the other in 13 months (1 month already down).
If the SP500 is lower then than it is now, I will all in into my stable "money storage" port (40% IVV 40% FDVV 5% IHDG 5% JBBB 10% XDTE)

Most brokers have decent mutual funds which are low expense that you can just use.
If you want to use ETFs - there are ETFs like IVV, VTI, VT, etc which can give you broad exposure to US and/or world markets.
There are also lower risk bond funds if you want to have an allocation of debt assets since interest rates are quite high.

You're not able to see your different lots? I can't speak to RH, but it's easily available in Fidelity and Schwab. I basically only look at my average cost basis though.
Consider doing an ACATS there - you won't regret it if you ever end up needing to speak to RH's (non-existent) customer service.
Separately, consider using [VT (or the like)](https://www.diyfi.co/#/investing/what-to-invest-in) over SPY. If you're hell bent on being 100% S&P, at least use VOO or IVV.

Majority of my Roth IRA is in IVV. So doing some different things for this account

I agree with the idea to consolidate. VOO or IVV paired with VB is a good idea for total US market exposure, then maybe add a complete international fund such as VXUS, IXUS, or alternatives from other fund providers.
As for selling your other funds, I'm assuming your account is taxable, so if you wait to sell at a gain then you'll be subject to capital gains tax. On the other hand, if you sell at a loss, you won't be taxed and you can use it to offset taxes on other, profitable, sales (look up tax loss harvesting). **Be sure to do more research on the tax implications of buying and selling your funds before you start consolidating your holdings.**

IVV

You can't buy .VIX because it's not an index fund. It's just an index. You can't buy the index. The same reason you can't buy .SPX. You have to buy FXAIX, VOO, SPY, IVV, etc.

Please help! I started investing in November and don’t understand what I am doing. Should I wait for some stocks/ ETFs to become profitable, sell them, and reinvest in VOO/IVV? What else should I consider if I want to keep only 2-3 ETFs?
My initial idea was to diversify into international markets (Australia) and a few other sectors, such as utilities, consumer goods, and real estate. I also wanted to cover some small caps and some dividend-oriented ETFs.
Now, I want to simplify things and not think about investing. I want to keep a small portfolio and invest on a monthly basis, irrespective of market conditions. I don’t need dividends; I want a pure growth portfolio for the next 10-30 years.
Portfolio:
Stocks - 25%: Adobe, Amazon, Broadcom, Microsoft, Nvidia, Synopsys (I believe in the growth of AI, semiconductors, tech).
ETFs - 75%: on the screenshot.

Here's some advice from the 6th richest person in the world:
>Warren Buffett, the legendary investor and chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, has been a long-standing advocate of safe investment options. The majority of his wealth comes from investments in different industries, while his total equity portfolio is valued at a whopping $347 billion.
>Though Buffett’s investment prowess has often been associated with his adept stock-picking skills, his persistent advocacy for index funds sheds light on a simple yet powerful strategy for investors.
>**"In my view, for most people, the best thing to do is own the S&P 500 index fund"**, Buffett had once said. "The trick is not to pick the right company. The trick is to essentially buy all the big companies through the S&P 500 and to do it consistently and to do it in a very, very low-cost way," he further added.

The Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) index is an index (list) of the 500 largest and most successful US companies, familiar names like Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, NVIDIA, Alphabet (Google), Meta, Tesla, Exxon Mobil, Visa, Mastercard, The Home Depot, Costco, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Walmart, Netflix, McDonald's, Starbucks, and hundreds of others. By buying an S&P 500 index fund you own shares in a fund that owns all of those stocks.
There are many S&P 500 index funds available including SPLG, VOO, SPY, IVV, FXAIX, and SWPPX. Pick one. That will get you started with a solid investment while you educate yourself about investing.

At age 18, your best bet is to focus on growth because you have a lot of years ahead. You already have a good set of stocks albeit heavily weighted in tech. I would definitely stay away from crypto as there is no inherent value there. I would hold a few stocks but have most money going forward in etfs. I recommend QQQ, SMH, XLK, SPMO, IVV. Good luck!
