>CAT Keeps going up

STAP

How lack luster from GOOGL

i remember hearing CAT laying off a bunch of people. i also remember them being raided by feds last year for some reason. and theyve been selling off since BEFORE the market started acting up. they beat earnings and just dropped for like a month. i remember that all too well

who comfy bull here

Well they Market doesn't remember and they Just keep buying.

Why Can't they just let it die.

brand loyalty? using past performance as an indicator of future rewards? idk. that kind of behavior is rampant these days. people are buying things that are just barely hanging on, solely on the fact that it worked before. i dont know why everyone doesnt realize that our economy tightening up changes the landscape severely. theres no reason to think that overbloated companies on huge margins are gonna do well in this kinds of environment, but theres been no interest forever, and investors seem to have forgotten what such things do to overvalued, overbloated and debtridden companies and institutions.

to say nothing of how some of the megaliths of our economy arent even profitable (cough zuccerboii cough)

We need a Good Bear Market to teach people a lesson.

They'll do it just before midterm election and blame it on Trump

it looks like you might be early on the short desu

if youre having trouble an honest to god safe bet is to try shorting bonds. you can do it either by holding inverse (or inverse leveraged) ETFs, or with calls and puts on bond ETFs.

bonds move slowly and have nothing but downside left to them

check TMV TMF TLT VCLT JNK HYG etc. i like options because bonds move so slow, but its about as safe as it can get. look what happened to bonds in the 70s

Nice try, Reiko

Where that nigga at who was all “I’m gonna throw all my money into random ass Mattel, cuz it going to the mOOn.” I watched it all day because of you, gj man.

Right here.
made 16% on 2:1 leverage.

Took Profits early though, It fluctuates 10 to 25%. I just needed a win, could go higher tomorrow.

Today, I made back half of what I lost last week. Lets hope the rest of the week goes well.

Posted this last thread but will ask again. Does anyone here hold any NVCN? Or have any opinions on it? Is it likely to pump up close to a dollar before compliance in July?

Help me turn my $8 into $10 on Robinhood please. Thanks.

Get a job.

we can turn your 8 into .50 cents in 2 days buy Buying INXP

Sick. Buying as much as possible. Thanks.

*INPX

My opinion is that any stock trading for .04 is trash and only good for pumping and dumping. Invest in something smarter or trade options.

What are your picks for most under/over valued right now?

Holy fuck, down near 100%? Actually just bought all I could. How much lower can it get?

I know it’s most likely going to 0 after the compliance date but I was thinking there’d be a nice pump and dump here trying to make it to a dollar

Amazon has to be the most overvalued company in years.

wrong
still undervalued at this price

No, the instant the internet dies Amazon will die.

give yourself more time to be right in the future. You are likely to be ITM at expiration.

we cow market now

Yeah I kind of wish I would have given myself more time, especially on DB. I've never let an option expire itm. What happens if you are itm at expiration but don't have the money to cover the 100 shares?

>Be me, know nothing about investing
>Put 5k into RH for lulz in January around market peak
>Oh shit.png
>Down 14% since I started

It has been a learning experience. I'm not too upset about the losses because most of that was from Trump JUSTing Amazon literally a day after I bought in. I also made the brilliant move of holding through all the losses in February, then selling before the rally into march. It has been a learning experience.

Same here except luckily I'm only done 4%

Wow google went through a month of gains AND a deadcat bounce after hours

My auto-correct keeps changing shit into tickers when I type, what have you done to me /smg/?

Very tech heavy. You're going to carry that weight. You should hedge a few percent with volatility.

>first time using options
>drops 6.5k
You are ballsy user, that's all I'll say. Placing puts on AMRS is bad news, the meme power is too strong on that stock.

I've always been tech heavy. It's been the primary source of my gains for over a year.
My idea of hedging was the puts on TWTR, SNAP, and GPRO.
But yes, the bags were very heavy following March 16th.

>first time using options
No, just puts. But I've only been using options for a month or two.
>Placing puts on AMRS is bad news, the meme power is too strong on that stock.
It's only a few hundred in puts with an expiration of a few months out. Worst thing that happens is I lose a couple hundred over the next month or two.

You missed out on based OJ moon mission.

DB, FIT, GME if you have time anyhow

>you should be selling covered calls on your shares if you have at least 100 of something
I don't have 100 shares of anything unfortunately, but I was heavily considering getting 100 of something just to do this, like AMD
But after looking into how much I can make from JUSTing other people with theta decay, it doesn't seem worth it.
Do you do covered calls? Do you do 1 week calls or longer term calls?

Orange Juice futures

You'll make more money on longer term call sells, you'll just need to watch them and buyback as needed. Usually I set them at a strike I would be OK selling the underlying at. Generally 3 months out with a 10% strike

LTC Properties.

I want to add some monthly dividend paying REIT's to my portfolio and with an aging boomer population I figure a good place to start is assisted living facilities and nursing centers. Shit one day I might end up in one of them so I might as well invest now and reap some benefits.

Kek.
I could not possibly into commodities.

Good advice.
I was thinking of just taking whatever Robinhood recommends people to buy for mid-term calls, bumping it up a strike or two, and selling that.
10% over 3 months is a fuckton for a stock to run though, so that seems pretty solid.

>FIT
I'm interested in shorting that, but I'm waiting for it to pop up before I do. I wouldn't hold that long term, user.
Aren't they still kind of burning money in earnings per share?
I heard the main reason for it popping up on April 12th was rumors of an investment from Tencent
>DB
Oh yay! That's another company I'll considering shorting.
Seriously.
Who the fuck even uses Dropbox? I wouldn't be surprised if they're burning cash too.

No picture because I'm trying out charts on mobile. I'll do the others later tn.
On >DB
Inside bars on the weekly indicate this stock will move sharply. Wether it will break red or left, I've yet to know. DB has been bleeding a lot lately and it has dropped into the oversold category twice in the past month. On the monthly time frame however, it's within the bottom limits of the Bollinger bands. I would long DB based on its relatively low price and proven strength.

It's a gamble though, after all. If we are indeed heading to a recession, DB will go down with all the others. But just looking at the chart and leaving the Jews to their designs, I would actually long DB. Near the money up to Mid-July

appreciate the look

come on user, we need to atleast TRY and make it less like tea leaves. this reads like a fortune

here. looks pretty shite on all timeframes. strong resistance at $15. low, shitty looking volume.bearish indicators all over the place (the daily on is something you would see in a textbook about bearish ichimoku patterns). been gapping down ferociously after hours for months now (showing big money is running). that weekly pattern looks ready to break down again, then another deadcat bounce and down into nothingness. the more one looks into the depths of DB, the more you realize how red everything they hold is.

Cboe says that the guy who bought all those SPX puts last Tuesday was a whale and not a manipulator. What do you guys think?

*last Wednesday.

Here's FIT
>within bearish channel up to the weekly.
>strong support at 4.80, weak resistance at 5.4, 5.6
>start of a bearish reversal on the 30min, but already oversold on the 5
>MACD crossing at .0425 on the hourly

MY guess is that FIT will open bullish and exceed 5.30 in price before it falls down to. How low it'll go, I don't know, but will likely not break 4.8

Doing GME now. Gamestop is shit short immediately.. Jk, but for real this stock hasn't had support since July '17. Its been in freefall once it stopped trading at 20 dollars. Looking at its entire history it has support at 16.

Weekly Volume is weak. Daily is in a bear channel. Bullish MACD touch on the daily, w better than average volume.
On the 4hr a bullish MACD cross took place, but volume was too weak to follow through. Its got a channel between 13.50 and 14, could maybe gain momentum in there and try for a higher low.
Safe bet is shorting. This stock wont be trading in the double digits come summer.

DB is Deutsche Bank, DBX is dropbox.

Robinhood was down, thanks. Still adding DBX to my watchlist as a potential short.

Based bearsama still awake, how will we wake up early to short the market tommorow?
