I shorted CROX. Hoping all this gloom and doom will drive this Fad Stock down.

Oh, and I really hate Crocs and hope they will go the way of the beanie baby very soom.
 
Hehehe...The guy who was in the lead friday (and this morning too for that matter!) just became dead last.
I certainly hope that's not your real money you're playing with...whoever the heck that is.

Today's Return
-46.18%

I went from 3rd place in just 3 days of joining the competition to the bottom 3rd. I think I'm strangely attracted to the #3.

What killed me? Buying QQQQ's on Friday expecting a bounce. Boy was I wrong!

I had like 10% invested in Apple, then they went down 🙁 So what did I do? I invested another 13% thinking hell.... they gotta go back up.

I was so fucking pissed, i thought for sure increased profits, new products and more marketshare would mean higher price. Guess I'm a dumbass. Oh well, hang onto them for a bit longer hoping they go back up.


Nokia saved my ass though. Bought them at 30.00 the night before they posted their 4th quarter profits. Sold them the next day at 35.50, woot! Just wish I had invested more into them.

Nonsense.
If anything you're at advantage.

Pretty much all the people who started early where slaughtered. Me included.

So your plan in this game is to buy stocks the day before they release their earnings report and sell the day after?
I hope that's not how you handle your real life investments.

Yeah after you bought Keeleysam's stock 😛

BTW - Sam, you are welcome for that tip.

Aggressor, if you really want to learn to trade, as you claim "long term investing" is a bad idea.... I don't agree, but I have decided to make this account a trading account. (something in real life I think is safe to do with maybe 10% of your portfolio)

Check out my holdings... you will see what a real trader holds overnight.
