SMG will rise edition

>I'm new to the stock market, what stocks should I buy?
Before you buy anything, make a brokerage account and read investopedia articles and/or the books in the OP list. If you don't have a broker, you can't buy stocks, and if you blindly buy things without understanding how the stock market works or doing any research on the individual stocks you're buying, you will lose money and it will be entirely your fault.

You can hold it through a recession while buying more.
Stop being a pussy

nice!

WHO MADE ME BUY ECR?!?!!? IM DONE WITH YOU NIGGAS

How the fuck do I cure my weak, baby hands and know when to strike on this shit?

I could've cashed out 110% on NBEV but panicked and sold when it was crashing hard, only made out at +60%

kek, it's been one day and you guys are freaking out. You remind me of this person.

I need a high yield dividend stock that will be around still in 30 years, which pick? ATT? Ford? Coca Cola?

How many of you think “sub machine gun” when you see these threads
Take profit earlier. 110% is more than enough. FOMO works both ways, people often think of it as buying into an aging uptrend, but it also means being afraid to sell when you should so as to not miss out on additional gains.

My average is $1.28 so i'm not worried. Plus I know what I got myself into. Sell at $1.50.

UVXY

Not supported on robinhood anymore.

MYOS or CARV

That is a dirty lie

Thanks user, I've only recently started to grow my wealth after almost a decade of scraping by chasing a dream.

Don't buy into the "do what makes you happy" bullshit

Yes it is you mong

what was the dream user? tell us your story

Was anybody else in ELAN? Got in at $32.70 yesterday, which helps make up for the NBEV today.

but they let you trade crypto? they must really like making bag holders

Just checked Robinhood web and you can buy it . My mobile app must be fucked.

No it's on the app. You must have looked during the reverse split

What makes me happy happens to pay well and the main objective of it is to make money. Kind of lucked out there
+1 for storytime

set a limit sell immediately after buying

or buy stocks, then uninstall (or just dont look) for a few days/weeks/months

ignorance is bliss

That must have been it.

I'm watching the videos on options right now and about to open a tastyworks account for paper trading. Question is should I do a cash account or margin?
The site makes it seem like there's no reason not to choose margin, no obligation to use leverage but are there pattern day trader restrictions? I intend to play w $2k

I don't ever recommend trading on margin if you can avoid it.

What really helped my weak hands was switching off robinhood. I still have like 100 bucks there to gamble with everyday, but I'm making weekly deposits into TD Ameritrade to buy and hold TQQQ. I only log on once a week to check the balance.
Something about robinhood makes it hard to hold, maybe it's because it's so easy to sell or it's game like interface

Lost half my profits on nbev
Didnt sell in time.
Still made 5k. But damn

Good lord, definitely do not trade with margin if you don't know exactly what you're doing with options

I'm so happy and thankful every fucking day that I'm not in all those shitty fucking social media companies in the nasdaq. fuck that index. if you buy it you're a brainlet

at least you didnt lose all of it, or worse

Gather round boomers, and zoomers and chads.

I'm a high-school drop-out, enrolled in college and faffed around for a while as I sorted out myself (drug problem post-losing my mother), decided that I wanted to dive deep into my love of history.

I transferred from a CC to a state school, got my BS in Archeology and travelled the country for 10 goddamn years chasing jobs and living out of hotels.

Got hurt about 9 years ago, can't go back in the field, lack of health coverage cost me everything.

Now working in IT, new life, moved across the country for it, new trad gf now fiance.

I'm slowly making money, and have a smallish emergency fund but I've got nothing for retirement, besides a .45. I want to change that, I want to get more financially secure but it's fucking tough.

PDT yes
Brokers want you to use margin because it increases the amount of ways they can profit from you. Chances are you don’t need it.
Brokers make money in four main ways:
>spread. The spread between what you and other clients buy/sell to the broker at.
>bid/ask spread. The spread between the market price and what they fill your order at.
>commissions.
>interest on money borrowed (margin). They give you a higher rate than what they borrow for. Using margin also gives them an opportunity to liquidate. This is why they offer leverage btw.
Remember, brokers take the other side of all your trades and have a vested interest in your failure. The tools, services, and platforms they offer are designed to make you trade often and fatten their bottom line.

There aren't any trad women out there anymore. Best to go after mentally ill trannies that want to be trad.

But the only mentally ill tranny who trades is RKG. And there's at least half a dozen other anons trying to hook up with (((her))).

This is true, you'll just have to prove that you are the most superior trader in this thread to win her over.
Comfy I already told you the odds of finding a hermie is extremely rare.

QQQ retesting the lows. Keep selling! Trigger their margin calls!

AMD was priced at $30 for a while now. When it hit $31 and you realize there is water in your boat, it's time to get out.

Buy the NBEV dip?

Fucking love the file names. It's really a shame big5 only stops in here for like 15 minutes a day to autistically post LCI a couple of times and then leave.

HAHAHAHA SOME ONE BOUGHT MY PUTS FOR MORE THAN I PAID FOR THEM!!!!!!

They are probably going to triple in value now.

I didn't sell them all.

Not until some buys actually come in, a lot are jumping ship
