JD -Garbage, to use your word.
Brainless stupidity.
Fake information.
You choose to fail to understand - umbrage I suppose.
I'm not a super investor by any means.
It's not like a horse race. You can watch which horse is running fastest.
You can stop the race any time you like.
You can switch horses any time you like.
You aren't even in competition with the other riders.
If your old nag has got you 1% in a month, and a a hundred others have got 5%, only a bloody fool should be staying with Dobbin.
There's a childlike sentiment that because a person OWNS something, they confer greater value on it. LIke faith in a car manufacturer, or something.
It used to cost you broker's time and various fees to switch from one to another. Now it doesn't.
You even know when the snakes and the ladders are coming.
Results dates are published.
Everyone on the planet can see that META Facebook/(Zuckerberg) results were coming out, right, and great things expected.
Last time Teslas were out, there was uncertainty. They fell somewhat, but they're coming up some now. They peaked at ?298, I sold at 291 (and bought -3xtsla for a bit), they're at about 270 now. Not a disaster if I'd done nothing..
Meta's should be musch bettter The shareprice was rising all yesterday, because everyone without clothears is expecting a jump.
Price closed at 298.76.
They will be up a lot. today.
Mottie what's your problem. You ain't lisnin.
I've mentioned several. AMC? BBIG?
Ocado a couple of days ago. Up a lot. And I repeated yesterday
Totay it hit the stop loss (automatic sell) and I watched it, and rebought. I didn't get all the rise, but in at 873p and out at 973p.
I used CFD, which I don't really like but it fitted. You stake 1/5th(say) of the price and your gain is the delta, times the number of shares.
So I "Staked" £5k. If it had dropped part way up, I could have lost a couple of hundred in the first few minutes but after that I was clear. YOu can hit the "close" button any time, but usually the machine is quicker.
The stake is what they call the margin:
I'll let the chatbot explain it
OK?
Ignore the odd graphics:.
The rising blue line on the left is yesterday's
If you make it bigger you should be able to read the numbers
5k by coffee time. Zero cleverness or clairvoyance required.
