I know a guy in Nigeria who will give you millions of dollars in return but he needs to pay some fee in order for the bank to relinquish his locked up money back to him.
 
i invest primarily in penny stocks








TCAR is what i am watching tomorrow morning. closed at .32 but there is a good chance it will gap up pre-bell.
 
I can provide some stock advice if you want, just PM me.

Current holdings up 18% Year-to-date.


whats up ? 🙂
 
I'd just put it in 6-mo CD for about 4.75% return in a year just because i don't see stock market will be a lot better in 12 mos timeframe given higher energy costs and interest rate.
If you really want to be in stocks, try energy, healthcare, and discount chain stores. Another alternative is to buy Asian currencies.

Enjoy doing your homework.
 
From looking over this thread, it looks like a lot people have a lot to learn. IE: investing and day trading are not the same, at all.

This is one of those things that's easy to get into, but very few will master. You need to do lots of research, learn a lot, get some experience, then you might make money in the long run.
There's a reason why most fund managers can't beat the market over the long term.
 
If you want a 12 to 18 month pay off, buy Intel. I put 5K in intel a few weeks ago. I seriously think it will double in 12 to 18 months.
 
Wow, I thought this thread had died awhile back.

I am putting my savings in ING while I educate myself on the market. I am trying out a few demo accounts for stocks and the FOREX. Until I have a well designed working plan I'm going to stay low risk.

I am interested in API programming for Oanda's forex platform but the dll's are $600 a month if you don't trade over something like 1mil a month. Automation seems like a good way to go if I can't watch the charts constantly and I have a good system in place. Yes I know it's extremely risky to let a machine trade for you. If anyone knows more about this automation shoot me a PM. I will PM some of the "gurus" that have responded in this thread when I have more time.

Everyone wants low(no) risk, stellar returns and liquidity - it just doesnt exsist.
Its the "Eierlegendewollmilchsau" in german - Egg-laying-wool-milk-pig - something that does it all 🙂

NETL, DIOD, TRID, OVTI or HITT would be a better investment. For that matter, AMD has a better chance of doubling than INTC.
 
1-2 Years?

ING Direct baby! There isn't anything else that is still liquid and will keep a ~4% return.

I'm not much of a risk taker though 🙂
