take it from me.. stay as far away as you can from the stock market. some people make money.. at the end you lose it if you are a day trader.

 

1999 lost 100k or so

2004 lost 40k or so

2008 lost 60k or so

2011 lost 20k or so

15-2016 losing 50k

 

I short a stock it goes up. I buy a stock below book value it goes down.. lol. I almost feel like there is a monkey on the other side of the screen waiting for the deposit and takes it.

 

 

I recall something on CNBC where the money maker ( all the volume you see ) i.e GE stock does 15,000,000 volume a day, 88% of that volume is not real volume. to create a market...

 

One day i will learn , no easy money.

 

In the future tell me all your trades. I will do the opposite.

there are certain pivot points where the big guys know the large number of people will sell/buy.

Wasn't it you investing with Liquid assets making a "big return?" or am I confusing you. I know when he was still around someone was talking about that, maybe it wasn't you.

The only real form of the stock market I have done is through my 401k, and it hasn't done much up or down.

 

Don't worry about the stock market Andrew. You bought a Miura S (and from your profile I see a Urraco now as well). I think your retirement plan is setting up nicely. ;)

In my opinion making money on shorting a stock is not that hard.

All you must do is be patient and wait till a stock gets hammered, rebound a bit (dead cat bounce) and then short sell it.

 

I will name two stocks I would short, TSLA and SCTY. With cheap oil and a weakening economy neither is going to do well.

I'm not an expert but I have played around with shorting a little bit and have had more success doing that than anything else.

 

A simple way I look at it is like a sports team. For example, the Lakers suck this year. If they start winning 5 games in a row, I know they're not actually that good and they will fall back to earth. So I'd short them because I know they're over performing and will come down.

Yes, I did have a little luck with that one since I bought in 2012. For the sake of current owners, I hope the high prices remain. I do believe the vintage lambos were undervalued for a long time, but the recent big upswing in the market really surprised myself and many others. I didn't think the Diablos would come up for another few years, but it happened. I also never thought I would see a Jalpa sell for over $50k... now you see some nearing $100k. Which is fantastic for the Jalpa owners because just a few years ago you could buy a Jalpa for $25-30k, put $30k into it, and it was still only worth $30-40k.

 

Wow things have changed... never imagined an Espada for over $50k either!

Liquid is doing well with my money. He is way more disciplined. I am referring to my account. All my calls are usually right.. just my timing SUCKS.
