$WINS finance had a lovely day.
Manipulated.

I saw this stock (look up the history if you think I’m bullshitting) once run from from $20 to $400 in 3 months. Went up consistently every damn day.

then it got halted for months. thread lightly on this one but with this volume it could go again.

EDIT check Q42016* PPS rise.

RRSP (retirement) portfolio wasn't looking good on the last statement. Was down considerably with the mutual funds ---- long-term investments. 90% medium risk / 10% high risk. Most recent statement mid-week was much preferable. Back up $6500.



Back up another $3600 on the monthly statement yesterday.


Also, a 1-year 50,000 GIC came due today. Going to reinvest that ... just need to look at some better interest rates. The return was pretty good, but could have been better.

Damn, this is why I say sometimes you just have to take your gains and not regret it. I now have to sell Hertz at a loss.
Risk management is key. $HTZ can still bounce back but I don’t see the upside anymore after the delisting.

I was pretty sure $10 was coming but they have too much against them now and are basically in limbo until a ruling is given.

I have to lower my risk %. Been trying to determine the right entry and exit strategy but need to actually stick to risk management plan. I just been putting in whole numbers I can stomach and using a 3x average true range on my trailing stop losses. Still collecting data on how effective this is. Two triggered today.

Yep, learned my first lesson today. I should've sold when I doubled up.

Lost all that profit and damn near half my investment.

Cost for the lesson I suppose.

I fucked up my crypto portfolio by bag holding Ripple.

I screwed up playing around with the premarket. In my haste to jump in on what I felt was a good oil price I rushed and set up a limit order. It didn’t execute and I thought I changed it. Instead I had set one for extended hours but accidentally another for day only that didn’t cancel. Not only did I buy oil way high by not being patient, my second limit order triggered at around the same price while that bitch was crashing to the bottom. I fucking ended up doubling down on a shit price. Now a proud bag holder of $VAL hoping for some decent oil news.

:smh:

PM and AH are tricky. The earlier you get in, the better.

check $DPW, basically a straight drop at opening after a huge run up in PM.

I doubled my money on one of the first big moves I did in pre-market and I think I’ve unconsciously tried to repeat it. Now I’ve moved to more technical analysis but I probably need to aim for 10% earnings as a low signal instead of aiming at 25%-30% profit for every trade. Trying to find the right balance where I take quick profits but don’t jump out too fast to miss them either. Tricky. Any suggestions?

I been having luck with this 1 stock called RETA. I think found a pattern with this stock, its been bouncing from 160s to 140s consistently. Patience seems to be the key on this 1.

$AMBO could be a sympathy play for $WAFU since they are both online educational stocks. Chinese stocks seem to be going supernova daily.

EDIT $WAFU halted*

Brotha - that is a thread in itself :lol:

Depends on the news but nothing wrong with taking profits. Remember, the market is designed to transfer your money to the rich.

My quick advice: if you get a quick run up, sell and if the chart is bullish you can get back in on any dips.

a lot of robinhood traders are losing their $ trying to day trade and they are propping a lot of this stuff up too.
 

Aww Skeet Skeet!

The antithesis of nonsense.

Just want to say this thread had me pumped to begin investing again. I bought a ton in blue chips during the down turn (e.g. 6k DIS @ 86, 8k HD @ 160, a few etfs). The return has been good.

I really need to work up the nerve to start looking/investing in some of these stocks you guys are seeing jump like crazy. Props to those making that money and passing on knowledge.

Did something change?
Why is everybody all of a sudden selling?

Shitty fed forecast, corona surging, and high ass unemployment.

Sounds like the theme from Good Times..

Temporary Layoffs..................good times......

Easy credit and ripoffs..........good times......

:lol:

Real talk, it's been a bloodbath today. I didn't do any day-trading. I'm back in IZEA again @xfactor Expecting PR from them tomorrow.
