Posted: 01 Feb 2020 06:19 AM PST I hope this post helps someone out there to avoid the mistakes that I have made. When I was 11 years old, my step dad helped me invest $850 I had saved up in my first stock. It was 1996 or so, and the first tech boom was just a few years away. By the time I was 15-16 I had a full portfolio and was rocking it. I had around $50k invested. All from money I made working at a flower shop, computer repair shop, (and selling a bit of pot too if I am being honest), and buying stocks. I was going to be the next Warren Buffett of course ... lol. In 1999-2001 day trading took the internet by storm. Even your cab driver had trading tips back then. I got sucked in with many others, and I also got wiped out. By 20 years old, I had blown out my account to 0 on dumb options plays, not knowing what I was doing and taking idiotic risk that I didn't fully understand. For a decade I avoided the market mostly, even though it had once been such a passion. I got a degree. Went into a different industry. Sadly at some point along the way again, I thought I could be a 'trader'. I went through similar cycles as the first time (perhaps with a bit more knowledge, wisdom and maturity than the first time). The game is even harder now though. The HFT's and Algo's are programmed just so perfectly to squeeze out your money, even if it is one penny at a time. Once again, after wasting many years, I found myself at the bottom. I will spare you the rest and jump straight to the ending: I am nearing 36 years old, and my portfolio is nearly non existent. I am not poor, and I own a nice little business ... but I am also filled with regret. Had I never started trading, and had I just continued investing, I would probably be a multi millionaire based on the trajectory I was headed by this point. I also would have gotten to skip many years of shame, doubt and guilt. The amount of people in this day and age that are actually successful traders are so god damn few and far in between. There is a reason the entire world has moved to quant systems. Computers trade better than humans filled with emotions. Moral of the story for you youngins' out there: Buy and hold. Maybe don't buy today at the peak of a fed induced 10+ year bull run and wait for a market correction in the next few years (ironic that I would be giving financial advice by the way), but when the opportunity strikes .... buy and hold. Make smart investments. Don't take dumb un-necessary risks. Sometimes the boring stocks are the absolute best ones. The stock market shouldn't be exciting. It shouldn't be something that makes you lose sleep or feel anxiety. It shouldn't be 'fun'. Hope someone gains something from this post. [link] [comments] |
Swiping their way higher: Visa, Mastercard could be the next $1 trillion companies Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:32 PM PST NEW YORK (Reuters) - Tech and internet titans were the first to reach $1 trillion in stock market value, but the next U.S. companies that could do so are better known for their plastic. Soaring stock prices are propelling credit and debit card companies Visa Inc and Mastercard Inc up the market value charts, where they currently rank 7th and 11th among companies in the benchmark S&P 500 index. The stock prices of both Visa and Mastercard have gained roughly 50% in the past year. [link] [comments] |
Tesla short sellers lose more than $1.5 billion in one day as stock skyrockets on earnings Posted: 01 Feb 2020 10:11 AM PST Investors betting against Elon Musk's electric-auto maker Tesla collectively lost more than $1.5 on Thursday after its solid earnings, according to data firm S3 Analytics. Tesla short sellers are now down more than $5.2 billion this year in mark-to-market losses after losing $2.89 billion in 2019.

AIMT: FDA approves first drug for treatment of peanut allergy for children Posted: 31 Jan 2020 02:33 PM PST Stock up 20%+ AH, but still a lot of upward potential. Also rumors of a Nestlé buy out. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:48 PM PST Seriously this sub seldom has relevant or sophisticated discussions about markets or stocks.. most questions could be answered reading the Wiki. Most posts are: "hey I hear about (topical event) on my Facebook feed.. how do I get stonk monies from this?" Or, "what stocks to turn my $500 into a house in a year". Are there any other subs with better content? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 01:53 PM PST I used to do very little stock market practices in high school so this morning I took about an hour researching my old broker and it's updates/tech - it was E-Trade back then and I'm just finding out I was using the 20-minute delay information. I believe now you have to pay or have a minimum off $1000 and I'm just looking to put maybe 500 for now in just get back at it slowly. I then came across TD Ameritrade and it's ThinkOrSwim technology/platform. With their apparent 0.06 second execution speed and the ability to not have any minimums (for a non-professional) at no extra cost and that sounds pretty dam good to me. Is there anything I should know about TD Ameritrade? I'm sure there are other great things within the software but for now I was wondering if you guys had any other broker recommendations that also have instant quotes for non-professionals? Or other broker recommendations in general? Thanks for reading! [link] [comments] |
Medical stocks i could invest in Posted: 01 Feb 2020 01:06 PM PST You guys know of companies i can invest in right now ,? Im sure with this Corona virus it's an opportunity for you to invest in a company that sells face masks of sorts [link] [comments] |
Which dividend stock or ETF is a definite buy in this Corona dip? Posted: 01 Feb 2020 05:30 AM PST I can imagine that this is the time to add some stocks or index funds. Which stock - preferably dividend - are you eying right now? [link] [comments] |
Why does profit taking lower the price in short-term? Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:41 PM PST Hi, This may be oversimplified, but I'd like to know why if someone had a long position and then they took profits/closed their position after the price went up, why this may result in price going down in the short-term. How does profit taking affect the supply and demand of the stock in the short-term? Thank you. [link] [comments] |
China to exempt taxes for imports of products related to virus control Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:25 PM PST |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:07 PM PST Hi. I bought Apple just before the earnings at $319 (I know I'm a goof, thanks). I won't have money to buy more during the dip and I'm already $100 down. Should I sell, wait for the peak of Corona to re-buy the dip or just hold them at this point? Again, I won't be able to add to my position during the dip. Thanks [link] [comments] |
A question from a total student , regarding trading times Posted: 01 Feb 2020 10:13 AM PST Hello everyone. Just seeking some advice from others , I have no experience and just learning with paper trading and just watching many videos and reading up. I work from Tuesdays - fridays 6 am to 8 pm. Off weekends and mondays. I know the stock market opens from 9-5 ? So regarding my work schedule , do I have no option and should completely stay away from trading since the market is closed when I'm off ? What would you guys recommend ? Thanks for any advice [link] [comments] |

ADVICE NEEDED: how to take control of a custodial portfolio Posted: 01 Feb 2020 09:05 AM PST My father had spent most of my childhood up until now buying stock for a custodial portfolio meant as "savings" for me, however we recently had a falling out and I am sure of the fact that if I don't do anything I will never see a dime of that money. There is easily well over $50K in the account and I had even asked for certain stocks when I was 19 that ended up performing incredibly well I am 20 years old now and am legally an adult, would that mean I am allowed to claim ownership over that portfolio? It's in my name, I was wondering if that is at all possible? Please someone experienced at this let me know because I have sunk so much time and money into that account alongside him and am now fearing that he will just take all of it and I'll never see any of that profit.

Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:08 AM PST I am looking for good resources on understanding commonalities between all markets and how to manipulate them. I would like to one day start investing in stocks but right now I do a lot of sandbox gaming where player markets are MASSIVE and you can make so much in game currency if you know what youre doing. id like to learn how to manipulate, understand, control, and profit off of the markets. I'd love some good reads on all of this because this is an investment into my future. Im using these games as my play ground to dip my toes into large scale trading and wealth growth so that when i have money of my own in real life I can more easily slip into investing. I want to be able to spot holes in the market and exploit them etc that kind of stuff. So if anyone can provide me with some good resources of knowledge id be eternally grateful! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:19 AM PST I have about 50K in my portfolio consisting of Apple and MSFT. Coronavirus is already hitting the portfolio with Apple temporarily closing the stores in China. Whats the better options - Sell on Monday and buy back at a later point or to continue holding my portfolio. I dont have an immediate need for money and have been holding them for > 1 year. Thanks!

Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:16 AM PST With HON beating it's earnings yesterday, can we expect CPAH to start rising next week? And if so in what price range can we expect it to be in/reach? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:12 AM PST I'm seeing this stock at an all time low and after doing some reading it seems like a solid investment for growth but I'm curious if anyone else agrees or think it will flop. What is your findings on this? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:06 AM PST Since I have been right on top of this, I figured continuing the analysis for all makes sense I can see a few scenarios playing out:
One can look at the charts for the past 2 or 3 years and see these types of price action are predominant. Basically the market needs to stay above the 50 day sma or sellers will likely take prices to the 200 sma. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Feb 2020 07:47 AM PST I don't know all the details but I just want to know if that was a very good move or not. EDIT: Either he was bullshitting or he got the year wrong. I'm not sure. EDIT 2: He isn't bullshitting me (just asked him and he showed me about 20000 dollars of value in stocks or whatever the term is.) holy shit. [link] [comments] |
