>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.

get a real broker, holy shit.

Futures are going nuts. This volatility is crazy for after hours. SP and Nasdaq up over 1% then down in to significant (for futures) red, now bounced towards even.

Why would you use a real broker for four digit or less portfolios? Robin Hood costs me nothing and it's irrelevant that they front run since I'm such a small fish

I WANT OFF THIS RIDE

because you can do essential things like set bracket orders with a real broker.

am not telling anyone for buy GPRO this time around like in May
in May was 100% sure accumulation was happening

but this time around cannot say as easily
it KINDA looks like accumulation, but it also looks like distribution

problem with GPRO = $6.50 was very effectively distributed on, sooo many people bought here and so many people were dumped on
from wall-st market maker perspective, there absolutely no reason for ever returning to $6.50 just so they can compete with sellers

ty :3 will need it
the problem good earnings might just be another reason for dumping gpro ;_;

I'm sorry $3 is a lot of money to you. I genuinely am.

I just purchased 3 shares in Spyd high dividend as my first investment someone tell me how I did

It adds up if you trade frequently, like a lot of the people in this thread do (and I don't)
Most people here are swing traders/options gamblers

Comfy has never held anything in his life for as long as I've held GALT, despite investing in stocks with much less downside risk and claiming to be a long term investor

TVIX Sky High tomorrow morning

You just said people here have 4 digit portfolios, and now you're saying they're trading 10 times per week as if they're fund managers. Get outta here gayboi

You'll be fine. In future take a close look at two things for ETFs: management fee and dividend yield. Sometimes it's a better choice to go with the ordinary SPY rather than a high dividend version in terms of overall returns.

If you're looking for relatively safe and slow go of it, simply buy more shares once a month or a few times a year, whichever suits best. You can also look in to other US and global funds for some diversification. Maybe decide you want more some exposure to utilities and industry (Dow), maybe more tech (Nasdaq) and so forth.

Bull still has juice.
SPY 310 mathematically

They do that tho
They trade 10 times a week with 4 figure portfolios, hence why robinhood is the best option for them

Convenient, but I doubt it's convenient enough to overcome how significant the fees are when your only trading sixty bucks at a time

I trade probably fifteen times a week with my shitty little $400 portfolio. Name a better option for me than Robin Hood

buy and hold with RH

I like making lots of trades, it's fun, and having a small amount of money to play with helps me learn. Someday I'll be a big boy with a huge dick portfolio and a real broker, but I imagine most people who post here are still small time and figuring their shit out

Tqqq lost 50% in the 3 months before that.

Amazin

I appreciate the insights, I will take your words into consideration for my next purchase.

Also slow and steady is the way to do this if I am a younger lad right?

Eh, that's up to you. How much money your job pays, what type of risk you're willing to take on relative to what kind of gains you have in mind to make over what time frame. And also what sort of time you wish to devote to babysitting your trades. Higher the volatility the higher the risk and the closer you need to monitor things.

I don't got a lot invested so if it all goes tits up no big deal. However thanks to AMRN I stand to make slightly double my whole portfolio. Then the rest of my positions which are divvy's are at that point "Free money" for me for the next 15- 20 years.

I stand to also make profit from the GE spinoffs; those I can sell or keep . Same applies with the Fox - Dis merger; Can sell my "New Fox" shares or keep them. After I get my new Dis share from the merger that is. Again, I'll make back every dime I invested thanks to AMRN so anything after that is "free"

Who here is a justed bear. Down 7%

Some would say: take the profit from AMRN and reinvest it. But I prefer to pay myself back first. I loaned myself the investment amount, first thing is to balance the books then any remainder can be reinvested.

FUCK I'M MAKING ALL THIS MONEY

Down 6.9%
Was up this morning but forgot to sell at a certain time.

Aphria about to dip or good buy?

Thanks, i've been at it for 2 months now and my goal is to add $500 a month.

I want people general opinion on my strategy though and my portfolio.

I have it in tiers
Tier 1 swing trades
Tier 2 blue chips
Tier 3 etfs

My strategy right now to spend that $500 typically maybe half swing stocks and half blue chips, I have gotten really lucky with my swing trades, Canopy I made 40% and a couple chinese stocks i'm holding and will probably sell once I feel they are at a top. I funnel all that money to blue chips.

My current blue chips are
Apple
Microsoft
Skyworks Solutions
Verizon
Dollar General
Disney
Heinz
Some Bank (haven't decided which yet)
And JD.com (I can't decide if this will be a legitimate position or a swing for me)

Divvys will buy blue chips for a couple years, than once I get to the point where I am getting about $1000 a month from Divvies move those to etfs

Is this strategy dumb? I feel like layering it like this will help me retain gains while still letting me play around with swing trading.

If you are wanting both Apple and MSFT I would just invest into QQQ.

Anybody here use Martin Armstrong's Socrates for trading?

I don't want to be near it when it dips though.
Also I want to be able to jump off apple if it hits ~220.

I gotta get in to options. Is there a good primer? I didn't notice an options specific one in the pastebin

> record breaking sales and earnings
>investors not impressed
Nobody wants a regular cup of coffee anymore. Buy seriouly, dont even fucking worry about the market at large, seriously.

my only regret was not tapping my margin, i could be up 15x. after the div yield hit 7.3% I knew the buyers were coming. oh well.

I honestly havent looked at the pastebins here, Jow Forums is all crypto.

I just watched youtube vids and googled shit. Definately read up on it and only buy 100$ worth of contracts at a time to begin with. With the amount of volatility in the market, there is dosh to be made

It's not hard to figure out with YouTube. It's addicting to trade options and you can nuke your account real quick if you don't set rules.

Gimp weeds out the weak. Adapt to its obtuse user interface or perish.

Just spend 10 hours on investopedia. Do your goddamned homework ffs.

You know some people slave their whole life for a single home right?

>my only regret was not tapping my margin, i could be up 15x

Well yeah but hindsight in stock trading is a son of a bitch. That would have been crazy risk on a stock that had been in freefall for months before the bounce, including several days in oversold territory with weak bounces last year.

I spend a lot of time reading investopedia, my man, I'm just not sure if it's sufficient. That's why I'm asking for more
