Is worth to try with small monthly amounts? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 04:44 AM PST Hi! First of all, I would like to say that I'd never invested before, so I'm a total beginner. I have savings of around £90K in different bank accounts, and a good monthly earnings. I'm happy with my current savings and I would like to keep them to buy a property in the future, but I feel that is not worth it to keep saving more money and I would like to start doing something with the new monhtly incoming money and start making the money work for me. According with my calculations, after bill payments and personal expenses I can have a remaining of £2K. I was thinking on using £500 or £1K of that reamining amount (which I don't really need) to start buying stocks and build a long term (5-10 years?) portfolio. The rest I can keep it to continue increase my savings until I get more experience with stocks. Or should I find another ways of investment? Is it worth it to get involved in stock markets just adding £500-£1K per month? [link] [comments] |
Stock Market Basics: What is an ETF? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 08:08 AM PST Saw this earlier and thought it might be of some use to people :) https://www.tmxmoney.com/en/news/newsletters/201712_ETF.html [link] [comments] |

Currently Invested in CRUDE OIL, Time To Sell? :( Posted: 06 Dec 2017 11:44 PM PST Hi guys wanted to know if i should sell ? Or hold? Kinda scared! Thanks! [link] [comments] |
BABA now or wait? Missed the big sale Posted: 07 Dec 2017 12:15 PM PST Few days too late but is it still a great time to get in? [link] [comments] |
Disney buying out 21st Century Posted: 07 Dec 2017 03:02 AM PST Should people be buying because there's a good chance of this happening or is it not worth the risk? Still relatively new at this so thought I would ask you guys first. [link] [comments] |
Investing Pre-Market Right After Breaking News Alert Posted: 07 Dec 2017 06:45 AM PST What is the best trading platform if I want to trade pre-market immediately after a breaking news alert? For example, yesterday I happened to see a press release for positive results of a clinical trial at 7 AM and I wanted to buy the stock pre-market before the jump. What's the best platform to use to catch the stock before the price jumps due to the breaking news? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:08 AM PST Said it before but bears repeating: when in doubt buy renewable energy… Simple as that. Solar stocks will fluctuate with the market and with fossil fuel stocks but one day on some market swing (maybe this one) they will leave the fossil fuels companies withering in the sun, so to speak. Recently emerging from oversold, here are a selection of solar stocks charts on screencast. [link] [comments] |

What is a regulated public offering, and how does one buy into it? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 12:13 PM PST A company I follow, Biocept, Inc. (BIOC), is having a common stock offering of $0.68/share for 4.9 million shares, through today. However, the stock is trading at $0.77 today. So what does this $0.68 offering actually mean? Where is that happening and who can take advantage? If people can buy that stock at $0.68/share, why can't they just turn around and sell it immediately for a 13% ROI? [link] [comments] |

How do you interpret short float? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:36 AM PST I've been following the short float of a number of stocks and was wondering how to best interpret the data. Intuitively, I'd think that if the % goes up, then more investors believe the stock is overvalued/will go down in price. But, is it also possible that institutional investors are shorting the stock just to create a correction in which they buy back the same stock at a lower price to hold long? Just a thought, not sure I have a great handle on the topic but any help would be much appreciated! [link] [comments] |

Monitoring your biases isn't enough. Be aware of the vacuum. Posted: 07 Dec 2017 09:32 AM PST During bubbles, it seems that the psychological ambience is rather one of public inattention to the thought that prices could fall, rather than firm belief that they can never fall.

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 06:34 AM PST I'm trying to build up my portfolio but I really need it to work for me since I have to work for rent. What great stocks would you recommend for someone just starting out with not a lot to spend? [link] [comments] |
First-Time Canadian interested in investing Posted: 07 Dec 2017 12:23 PM PST Hey everyone, I'm 26 (Canadian) who recently started beginning to think about ways to better my immediate and long term finances. I've recently acquired a better paying job that will lead into a long term career. Long story short, I want to start making investments primarily in share/stock trading and doing as much research and learning various terminologies as I can. I know I have a long way to go but I'm very excited about engaging in this very diverse lifestyle! My question is, as a first-time investor looking to just start his digital wallet, I've been looking into various trading platforms, so far QuestTrade seems to be the go to as a Canadian. I've talked to people who have started out with financial advisors but then switched to doing it themselves and I believe I want to do the same. I'm looking into getting into a diverse portfolio into various Tech, Pharma, and Entertainment sectors. So far, my biggest interest is in Marijuana stocks. I will have a relatively low threshold to start investing ($100-$200 a month to start) with some minor student loan debt (25k) and minimal savings at the moment. If I'm heading in the right direction, let me know! Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Do you think General Electric $GE is a good investment? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 11:45 AM PST I want to hear your thoughts regarding their job cuts and whether that would make the company more attractive in the long term. [link] [comments] |
Drive Shack (DS) is a great pick for 2018. Posted: 07 Dec 2017 11:26 AM PST DS is the first major competitor to Top Golf, with the first location opening in Orlando in January. They own 77 American Golf locations, and currently have 182 million in cash to open Drive Shack locations in major metropolitan areas. Each location costs between 20-25 million, and they just received permission (2 days ago) to build a location at Palm Beach International airport. They also plan on opening locations in Phoenix, Raleigh, and Richmond VA in 2018 alone. If you're looking for a solid stock for 2018, this looks like a good pick. [link] [comments] |

Buying ETF's that track the DOW NASDAQ and S&P 500 Posted: 07 Dec 2017 06:40 AM PST I see a lot of people saying it's almost impossible to beat the market (which I'd agree with). So I was wondering, why not funnel all investment money into 2 - 3 ETF's that track the average returns on the NASDAQ, DOW and S&P 500? If you look at the yearly returns of these sectors, it doesn't look too bad. Would there be any sort of downside to doing this? Anything I'm not considering (probably a lot of things to be honest) ? It seems like a pretty good idea to me, track the 3 major markets and that way any inconsistencies in one can (hopefully) be compensated by another's performance. If they're all down, the market would be down anyway, right? It seems to be a decent way to safely (as safe as it could be) generate average returns. I am looking at DIA VTI QQQ and SPY equally distributed. [link] [comments] |
What investment software/website are you using for risk management? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:24 AM PST My broker is eTrade. The tooling (eTrade Pro included) it provides is far from what I need. There is almost zero reporting of your portfolio's historical performance/risk metrics. So there is no support to validate/improve your investment strategies. I don't do technical analysis. My style is mostly Peter Lynch's growth investment. What I really need tooling for, is risk management. Like calculating a possible trade's impact to the risk metrics of my portfolio. Or provides calculation on risk hedging trades, etc. etc. Which software/website should I be looking into? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
What non-tech, non-dividend stocks would you recommend? Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:22 AM PST I don't want to over leverage in IT and would like to avoid any stocks that have a dividend due to my residency. I already have a few stocks in these criteria (two of my three biggest holdings are BRK.B and BAM), but I'd like to be tipped off to some other good ones. Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |
When a support level or base is about to break, and dealing with hype and outside influences Posted: 06 Dec 2017 11:01 PM PST Nothing groundbreaking, another post geared to the less experienced traders like me. I wanted to share my experience about a trade where I initially thought this was going to be a long-term investment. This one had a tech analysis component to it but it was also a mental battle about whether I could be objective, and deal with the realities of trading and being active on media like reddit or stocktwits, investorhub, discord etc. We're not trading in isolation, we're always inundated in a sea of outside commentary and influences. So for the ticker I'll just put in the image since it's on the pump and dump stock list here: https://imgur.com/AZedMP7. I put the snapshot from my statements to show that you can recognize these patterns and act on them in realtime and not in hindsight. At the time I had a third of my funds that were settled (small portfolio, poor guy just starting out this year) and I jumped in on FDA approval news. For some context, I think HMNY and a few other stocks had gone on insane runs somewhere in this timeframe. So I had this mentality that this is going to my HMNY. Why not? FDA approval, only 1 incumbent competitor, reasonably funded, instant huge moat. If a junk company can be pumped up a couple 100%, a legit robosurgery one should be able to run no problem, right? It was at $5 for a few minutes (first and so far only time I was ever up 100% on a stock while holding it), then immediately turned bearish. There was that scientist with the ridiculous pump job thread. I backed up another poster here calling him out, but I still thought 'wait and see if the stock can absorb the dilution from the warrants. It's reasonable for the stock to sell off at $5. Let the profit-takers get out of the way." Eventually I did catch on. I annotated the chart here: https://imgur.com/oAxp77k. I scalped it again for another 15% off the 20MA bounce so I don't feel as bad about missing the 100%. I didn't consciously choose to let the pumpers influence me (obviously), but this stuff happens especially if you're new to this. Are my thoughts on the direction of the stock my own, have they been influenced by someone else? And if so, to what extent? That's what I try to remind myself to assess. And obviously cost-basis matters. For me on Oct 24th given an entry of 2.5 I understood I can get in at that entry or lower so I have no 'reinvestment risk'. So by not selling, I'm burning money for no reason. But someone at 1.50 looking to hold long term, if they sell, they probably won't be able to buy back there for a while so their optimal move is closer to hold longer-term instead of selling and rebuying was for me. But they are incentivized to pump the stock, they hope you become a bagholder instead of taking profit, then put a limit sell on your shares so they can't be borrowed to be sold short while you're stuck waiting for the next catalyst. Meaning we can't go mix-and-matching advice that's good for other people but makes zero sense for our own position. A more recent one I was watching was CTRV https://imgur.com/SPR67m3. Same patterns, except there was more price history and there's a fakeout I annotated. It is my first hat trick stock so I checked up on the chart, and was tempted to get back in since it had returned to its base at 0.47-0.48. But, again, descending triangle, so didn't take the trade. If I was a fundamental investor who knows the company and drug and the science and all that checks out, I'd have waited for the break and move down before buying. I have one more, https://charts.stocktwits.com/production/original_102090285.PNG?1511199579. This one immediately broke the lower trendline by not putting in further higher lows, so I just sold flat. No problem, don't need to turn it into a 'okay, let's hold and see what happens' gamble-play. Kind of the flip side to CTRV where a bullish pattern is developing and fizzles out on low volume. In conclusion, you'll likely be in a situation where you'll have that inkling in the back of your mind that goes against the grain. You'll face conflict between the instinct that's made you money and what the rest of the people are telling you. You should listen to the first thing. [link] [comments] |
