Looks like I’m starting from scratch. Went all in on COIN Calls and now I’m at absolute 0. Unless shit pumps overnight I’ll be lucky with scraps
I made $50 today.
Predictions for what happens to DKNG tomorrow?
Thoughts on SP500 leverage x2? It's more than x20 in the space of 15 years
Is it really as easy as it looks?
ndx brutally rejected off its 200sma. pump is almost over
the US runs on spectator sports so eventually a good chunk of quarterly GDP will be deposited onto DKNG platform
i'm not kidding
SOXL sisters how are we feeling?
I bought 5000 shares at $8, im up $30,000 so far,
were gonna make it
I got traumatized from selling SOXS at a loss so I don't really want to touch either one again out of spite.
WOLF
I regretted not picking it up when it had stabilized in the $2 range, but who the fuck would hold this scam company through earnings?
if you have some money to cover losses when shit breaks like during the last february, and if your broker doesnt charge too much fees
Bought at $12 WAGMI soxlsissies
Reminder
You bought the April low, right anon?
SKYT vertical triangle but I sold that shit at 7.36 because I was tired of it. Now it's gonna violently pump I guess because fuck me am I right?
I'm up like $800 on SOXL, but I've been buying and selling, not holding too long
Oh that happened to me too. SOXL always seems like a good investment until it rapes your portfolio, I wouldn't go all in with tens of thousands just to get totally fucking destroyed.
Damn nigger nice lie
Next time check your math you flaming cock sucking nigger faggot
futures
More green dildos because of hopium. Will Trump fully cuck before shit goes south or what?
An American Pope is bullish
Why is everything pumping again?
I am SO tired of this fake pumps
Trump said 10% is absolute lowest rate, he can easily charge Vietnam 20%+ even after negotiation.
Even if all tariffs go to 0 tomorrow, the damage is already done and we are going into recession
So why is stock market going to ATH and why is Bitcoin $103000?
any other QBTS chads?
retail baggie delusion
call your congresswoman and demand an explanation.
why the fuck did it pump like that
you’re trying to trade on fundamentals and that’s where you’re wrong. markets haven’t been like that for years. i’ll keep drinking bobo tears
Why is BTC at an ath while gold just bullwhips?
fantastic earnings this quarter from what I've read.
I rode it from 6.50 to 11 last time so I bought back in at 6.55 the other day.
one is money 2.0 and ones a shiny rock.
pic
literally me
I don’t know why at this point you’re still trying to make sense of it. Personally I’m just trying to ride the wave and not hold anything longer than a day or two.
Big if true.
This might be the most disturbing AI I've seen
don't be racist.
Line is going down in a day where trump said he may cut tatiffs to 50% lol
The manipulation is starting to wear off
What's the blue line?
custom ma that is written in an attempt to make it hard(er) to jam, bottom is stdev derived from it
the damage is already done
what damage?
hardmode: no mention of "trust in the US as reliable partner"
He fell for the "empty shelves in 2 weeks" meme
Get a load of this guy. Everyone laugh at him for not buying in April.
So why is stock market going to ATH and why is Bitcoin $103000?
The market stays irrational longer than it stays solvent.
says that taxing the rich dont work
taxes the rich
taxes the poor with tarifs still
i dont get the administration
I'm just not buying. The second I buy we'll get bad news, the good vibe will disappear, and a gigadump will happen. I am scared money.
Vatican roll'n cole destroying the atomsphere with all that soot.
my Boeing bags are finally green
uh thanks Trump?
Boomer investing question: I always see people claim that it's better to have a certain percentage in bonds/cash/gold, because 1) it reduces volatility in your portfolio, and 2) you can rebalance so when stocks crash you buy back in with your bonds, and when stocks moon you sell some to grow your bonds.
But in back testing, that never seems to play out. The ideal frequency to rebalance is "never"; the ideal asset allocation is 100% stocks. Am I missing something?
how far back are you testing? The last 20 years of artificially low interest rates have really made bonds unappealing.
I think in a world where you are going to need the money sooner rather than later, taking a small chunk and offloading risk by buying bonds is a sensible course.
Like i have 1 million account and i am retiring on the 50k /year .
There is a small but real possibility the stock market corrects 20-60 %. This would possibly make me loose my principle especially when i depend on it to live. On the other hand if have bonds that are paying 5 % return , I dont have to worry about my principle as i will collect coupons until redemption and cycle through again.
get a job.
id go 100% $UPRO or $BITU until you've got 7 figure net worth and worry about diversification after that.
I…what? Are you literally 4yrs old and don’t remember Trumps first term? The only thing Trump cares about is the stock market, any and all dips are buying opportunities as long as he sits behind the Resolute Desk
Do I need any formal education if I want to learn and eventually make some money trading stocks? Or are all of the things I need to know can be self taught? I'm not looking to make millions, but if I can make 1k to 2k then I'm happy. Then my next goal would be 2k to 4k. Then 4k to 8k. And so on.
My investment portfolio is all into one ATF, XEQT (I'm a leaf) but I want to give myself some 'fun' money and try to learn this.
I'm not though. I expect more green desu.
Do I need any formal education
No, but learning and understanding is required. You can be self taught and be very successful. Trading stocks successfully can work if you are good at it and make money. If you suck, then you will need to do something else for money, and stocks for long term investments.
I'm not looking to day trade, I already have a full time job. I was thinking of learning swing trading where I just keep the stocks for a week. But thanks, I'll read up on it to see what I should know.
I'm also not risking my whole portfolio on this, I plan to start with 1k, which is around 2-3% of my whole portfolio. If I suck then I'll stop and only lose the 1k. I don't want to lose everything.
I plan to start with 1k, which is around 2-3% of my whole portfolio
so your portfoolio is about $40k - look to your current job to see if you can get any good info on your company, or other companies you work with to see if they are worth investing. A lot of people just ignore the free info in front of their face and read the lame news which is designed to help you lose money. Dont try to be an expert on all stocks, but follow the best companies you can find for steady gains, really consider a good ETF as part of your investments. If you want buy in and out of stocks but you need to have some knowledge as to why the stock is going to move, and there needs to be volatility. Enbridge Energy (ENB) is reporting earnings before market opens tomorrow (see the earnings whispers pic near the top of the thred). Would you buy this stock now thinking the report tomorrow is good, or short it hoping its earnigns report tomorrow misses. Do you like energy, mining, defense, IT, whatever try to really learn the sector and companies that are worth gambling on. Why did QBTS rip today? You could have made some decent gains.
Yeah, around 40k in a registered account. 20k in an RRSP but I don't count that. I am already in XEQT which is Blackrock's "all-in-one'' ETF.
I like tech and I follow a lot of tech news, I was thinking to start there.
Oh, and I work in an Amazon warehouse. We don't get news about the innerworkings about Amazon. I guess other than when Prime would start.
I think a serious mistake is underestimating how risky bonds are. Even if you can lock in 5% today, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to do the same when it's time to roll those into the next rung of your ladder. Your principle is at stake too, unless you're okay locking it up for the whole duration, because their price fluctuates with interest rates. And there's no guarantee that your 5% is keeping up with inflation (not a promise with stocks either, of course, but historically they do better at keeping pace). And bond returns tend to be autocorrelated, so bad years run in streaks.
Stocks swing more, but they're negatively autocorrelated: bad years usually lead to good ones soon after.
Oh, and I work in an Amazon warehouse
that could be a great source of info. Does anyone in the warhouse know how to track the number of packages coming in and going out by company? Which company is selling the most shit, what is it, are they public? If company x is selling lots of black dildos to white women maybe invest in the dildo compnay. Lots of business use satellite imagery to monitor parking lots of their competitors to watch the flow of traffic, or use thermal cameras to watch crude oil levels in tanks at Cushing Oklahoma, or port traffic, there is always some info available if you just look, watch, and think - what does this mean? If your warehouse traffic drops to zero, what do you think that means and how would you invest or go to cash?
up 250k ytd
should I keep going or cash out
Unfortunately those aren't public.
My best news is from truck drivers I occasionally talk to when they deliver boxes to us and the most they can give me is that they aren't getting any work so Amazon is getting less and less items coming in. They don't know what kind of items they are hauling.
My best news is from truck drivers
what kind of trucks, do they like them or are they shit. Who does the maintenance/repair/servicing, washing? Where do they get the fuel - does that company have a private contract just for Amazon? Keep asking questions and learn everything about all the operations. What about the service companies - who comes in to service the toilets, lights, paint, roof, AC. Its all business and contracts.
You are obviously locking into the whole duration if your are fixed income looking for stable returns.
The bond is still gonna be worth par value at the end of the term.
There are inflation adjusted governmetn bonds which are essentially a risk free asset TIPS.
Just cuz we havent had a decade of stagflation again doesnt mean it cant happened.
But all things said and done if i was retired i would park a large some of money in bonds .
the worst thing that could happen to you as a retireee is your 1 million dollar nest egg is 500k today , and you need to withdraw 50 k per year. You will end up dipping into the principle and now you have essentially destroyed future returns too.
should I keep going or cash out
What was your original plan?
nothing wrong with locking in gains. I think like a mountain climber, I climb and tie off (cash out some to lock in gains and reduce risk), keep some stocks or reposition. It also depends a lot on your investments, how likely are they going to keep going up in the current and near term conditions? Only you can answer that.
Us and asian indexes were dropping for close to 3 hours. Then eu futures opened and it recovered; currently pumping.
What are the chances orange nigger included a "buy our market if it drops" clause in the deal?
No reason for anything to go up right now (especially not anything from the eu)
futures
It could also just be that Europe is buying a little more American markets because they see the dump isn't happening. The dollar did recover some today as well, DXY is above 100 again which is good.
Futures do retardpump
needs chinaman to say something for minidump
China Vice Foreign Minister Hua:
United States cannot ‘sustain what it is doing’ in trade policy
China has ‘full confidence’ in its ability to manage US trade issues
China does not want a ‘war of any kind with any other country’
China has ‘full capability to overcome difficulties’ amid trade war
‘Ordinary people’ in China do not want trade war but are confident
On US trade talks, ‘if we have to face up to reality, come on. We have no fear.’
WHAT DID YOU LEARN TODAY ANONS????
I've been reading a textbook about market liquidity, the chapters I read today covered the shenanigans that dealers get up to, I got to find an insider to learn more. I bet I could find a anonymous mole somewhere.
working good on both fronts of the war. my stocks are holding up well, stopped drifting down, and my futures trading is doing better, reinforcing good habits and identifying bad actions. but all this week I didn't lose close to as much as I normally lose (still on sim tho) but thats a huge win, I can feel myself gradually turning a corner towards consistency. don't give a shit about profitability, that comes after consistency is carved in stone. I'm aiming to have it so my only down days are due to technical errors or a freak candle outta nowhere. thats what every futures trader should be aiming fo.
hope you bros are learning, informational edge is a real thing, and most of the big dawgs by default have a huge informational edge over retail, so yous gots to be reading reading reading so at the least you don't get conned or rugpulled
btw the book on liquidity is thus:Thierry Foucault, Marco Pagano, Ailsa Röell - Market Liquidity_ Theory, Evidence, and Policy (2013, Oxford University Press
its a cool book, every chapter has a list of other research papers that expound deeper on topics covered in the chapter, this shit is a goldmine.
Somebody post the intelligent investor
What should I buy in my Roth? I was up bigly on ANET, NET, and PLTR before the orange negro went crazy. I just sold everything and dumped it into VOO. I’m also nowhere near retirement and can only invest like 3-4K a year at the moment. I only have like 5500 in there right now.
Pretty spot on. There is an underlying assumption that equity will all be saved which ignores the fact that companies are trading at pe ratios above 20 on average in the USA and in India. Companies are massively overvalued due to banks creating money through loans
You can ladder your bonds to mix short-mid/long term so you don't risk turbulence on roll overs.
I hurt myself today. Pretty sure I gambled up the entire family vacation fund. Bros, I feel so fucking stupid.
China Trade Balance (USD Terms): Trade Surplus $96.18B (est+$93.90B)
• Imports -0.2% Y/Y (est. -6.0%)
• Exports +8.1% Y/Y (est. +2.0%)
So China probably has been exporting to Vietnam and from there to the US. But at the same time ships are empty (news)?
is Trump announcing anything tomorrow? if not i might just buy sit this one out. seems like as soon as SPY goes one direction it gets pulled back to a channel between $560-$565. wish i knew more strategies for options rather than just buying/selling single orders
Why is he so nervous?
I only have 1600, please don't make fun, Im just poor
DCAing till 20 not selling till 60
i should buy a gerbil to tell me what stocks to invest in
Even if they are doing that it will be limited quantities and mostly for small stuff.
I sold 66 puts expiring next Friday on SOXL today. It made me 2200 leafbucks. Not a bad weekly return.
SOXL is pretty near all time lows, I don't really see the risk right now. If it was at $40 or something, yeah, that'd be a concern.
CEO of Outokumpu said their ferrochrome sales have seen serious uptick from the only mine in Europe that produces ferrochrome. Most of it has been bought by the defence industry. This is the first real world impact I've seen from all the past EU defence hype. We gon be eatin' good.
I learned my lesson on leverage and refuse to do that again. I'm way too risk adverse for it anyway.
Do you think when the collapse happens it will have signs or will it come out of nowhere? Took rome two and a half centuries to fall. Why doesn't NQ have 2300AD options available?
regular stock dailies are coming
this will give them the opportunity to script the market movements far greater than they already can (and they can script a lot already)
it'll be predetermined like wrestling and shoots (when things go off script) happen extremely rarely
If somebody has very specific demands/questions there is a very specific interest behind it, so whoever is behind this (behind Nasdaq) has some kind of exploit in his mind
some, maybe all, of the mag7 will probably be among the starting lineup of tickers available
that alone should tell you that the big players want this to conduct the indices more heavily
