Late night math with Jow Forums
user puts $1,000 into a stock
The stock goes up 20% each time
user has $1,200 now
user puts the $1,200 into another stock
It goes up 20%
user has $1,440
Assuming we don't worry about taxes, how many different trades will this user have to make assuming he goes all in and the stock goes up exactly 20% before he reaches $1,000,000?
log1,2(1.000.000/1.000)
>log1,2(1.000.000/1.000)
only 80 times, eh? thank you user, very cool!
=log(1.000)/(log1,2)
38 i think
>log(1.000)/(log1,2)
very cool, 38, not 80
38 times
>>log1,2(1.000.000/1.000)
i trust you user, can someone else confirm this tho?
fibonaccis and fractals
How's your first day in class
pretty shit
HAHAHAHA user DOENST HAVE 1k NICE JOKE
he does tho senpai
log1.2(1000) or
>log1.2(1000)
I'm assuming the 1.2 = 1,200?
Yes, i am retarded when it comes to math
Has anyone tried this in crypto - since its volatile, and succeeded? how do you set stop losses and how tight are they?
i'd like to know too
$1,000 * 1.20^t = 1,000,000
1.2^t = 1000
t = log base 1.2 of 1000
So that’s 37.887 which is 38 times to get at least a million.
Now you understand why 20% is such a big deal. You’ve just turned $1,000 (the amount that a 12 year old has in his savings) to one million dollars (which is a pretty nice car).
>=log(1.000)/(log1,2)
Thank you
Let's say this user put in $3,000
would it be 13 times then?
>$1,000 (the amount that a 12 year old has in his savings)
maybe if you're a 1%er in a top tier country
Just type this:
1000*1.2^x
Where x = number of times compounded. Try 38 to see if user was telling truth.
Holy fuck you must be poor
My gf is from a third world country and even she had that
plz respond
Only because she took it out of your wallet when you weren't looking.
Just fuck off, no 12 year old has $1000
>assuming he goes al in each time
Jesus fucking Christ user, you stupid sack of retard flesh incarnate. Have you given no consideration to liquidity? How many fucking people/investors do you think there are in the world that are willing to drop such significant sums of money as you progress up your logarithmic value chain on your portfolio? You’re the biggest fucking retard I’ve ever seen post on the internet. More than the redditor who asked if he could return his stocks on robinhood within a “grace period”
Look into optimal liquidity and averaged out volatility in the market you want to trade. Backtest using historical data, see if your numbers hold up on average. Holy fuck, the fact I know I’m trading against morons like you makes my gains all the sweeter
he's so mad
it's what you multiply a number by to increase it by 20%
0.2 of a number is 20%, so x + 0.2x = 1.2x
plz respond
it would take 32 times
This. What fucking use could a 12 year old have for a grand?
I remember when I made my first 1000 in my teens and felt rich as fuck... lmao
can you show the math plz
The correct answer is 38.
Good luck doing that though. In reality what will happen is you'll become a bag holder when whatever you buy goes below your buy price. Maybe you'll get lucky once a year with a 10% gain on something, but to produce 38 20% wins will take longer than the time you have on this planet. You're fucked.
Fucking europoors using commas and decimals backwards jesus fuck.
But yea it's ln(1000) / ln(1.2) ~= 38
Jesus christ nobody once said they were actually going to do this you fucking retard
