Imagine not participating in the great fire sale of 2020, which took place earlier today. It will be talked about in history books for ages to come. From here on out there will only be unprecedented gains, frens. We finally made it.
I'm looking to open a third position. I've got KO and RTX and I want to use the rest of my cash to put into one more company until I can add more cash. I was thinking about going into MRVL seems like a decent company and a 5G play
You seem to be butt frustrated by the fact that the economy does support your short-to-medium term bullish outlook. I hope you take your profits when the time comes.
Why do people here think it's gonna tank Monday? The market is detached from reality, explain to me how, outside of some select stocks and even some industries to an extent, it's possible to predict what happens next

>Why yes, I did purchase $3000 of RTX when it was just $60 a share. How could you tell?
Morgan Stanley rose the S&P 500 target to 3000 before the Gilead news.
Monday is gonna be green.

Go all in on NET.

Bears have been screeching black monday big red since they had 2-3 in a row a month ago. Its not happening anymore. Been like a month where there wasnt a red monday but theyre clinging to those Monday gap downs.
Carter Stewart
Beartards have lost everything and the only thing they can do now is hope. Well, I say fuck 'em.
I'm sure sooner or later we'll test and even break those lows from around March 20th, I just don't see how that happens Monday. Though the irony is on one hand I want stocks to go up for one account, while I missed the 3/20ish bottom for buying back into my mutual fund so I'd like that to go down again

My conclusion was that they hurt the results of the vast majority (almost all) trading systems, or resulted in over-fitting of stop parameters. So, I decided not to use them, and not to incorporate the option into systems. I later confirmed this with others. Howard (Bandy), for example, also says that they almost always hurt performance. >Please note the above statement is talking about perfectly executed stops where: >-other participants such as brokerages or ECN’s did not have knowledge of stop points >-stops were triggered by executed order prices >In practice, stops perform even worse because the above two conditions do not hold true.” >I’m sure I’m getting some head nods in agreement, however, I’m just as sure there are more out there ready to tar and feather me who still believe stop losses are as necessary as the air you breathe.

Partly true. If there's a rally or a sell-off you can piggyback off of, you might as well make what gains you can. Make money on the way down, and make money on the way back up. But it pays to keep an eye on what will move the markets in more than just the next couple of days and weeks.

Holy shit i lost money on 2 stop orders today
Nathaniel Johnson
Stop loss is for fucking low IQ retards who don't even know why they are buying the stock they are buying
Michael Gomez
I only buy stocks where I'm confident the value will eventually go up, and only set a stop loss once it's passed above my cost average, so "stop loss" is more like "minimum profit" >but what if stocks go down don't buy stocks that could realistically go to zero and they'll EVENTUALLY go up
Ryan Ortiz
Today I sold some RTX to go all in on NET. I'm pretty content with my portfolio right now and will just sit for a while. Hopefully I played my cards right.
Gavin Barnes
eventually can be a long, loooong time, user.
Elijah Garcia
I hope the S&P dips some monday. I got 2000 more to dump into my funds and the lower it goes the more "shares" and more divvy I bag. I'm kinda done chasing OTC stocks. I've had fun,made some green (only lost 700 thank god) but thanks to events (virus) I'm in a perfect spot to make epic gains over the next decades as the market surges higher.
Brody Edwards
Respectable, but I'd jump back into RTX as soon as it's below $64-65, this shit is on a one way mission to $100sville
Jonathan Watson
Stop loss orders are for "people" with no brains and no balls.
