Playing & Trading Strategy

Easy With Common Sense (: Newb, or not.

Posted by: Panda (a.k.a PolyPanda) on Feb 03, 17:13 in response to Panda's post I like this hollywood stock exchange, but question...

Well to clarify for you all, I do have common sense. I do have an understanding as to how the market works. I know about manipulation, I know that some people try their best to make a stock plummet or skyrocket for financial gains. I know how to spot these things as well (to a certain extent).

In regards to IPO's I quite like them. The most recent IPO I invested in was Tron3, and I did sell out early, but I do understand the basic forces that drive the exchange. Actors, successful directors, storyline,

So far, I've reset my account and taken R.More's advice regarding TAGs and GRIBI, as they seem to be the safest, most lucrative way for me to bring my numbers up at the moment. I've also figured out a couple other things that I can do to stay on the 'news' (reuters on my phone, bookmarked insider pages etc) so from now on I shouldn't be at a complete loss.. I think that the only element I lack now is vocabulary, because some words/phrases regarding the stock market just don't make sense to me (just yet). ><

Anyhow, I do like IPOs They are GREAT ways to make money in my opinion. Sure you should have a substantially larger port than I (~2m), but I believe that I have to start somewhere: Might as well go big and learn my lessons (which I have picked up a few of [reckless, I know]).

I learn, oh so very fast

So fast I can't think.

One just simply has to "Do"

There is a .01% transaction fee per every trade. However, this does not apply tostocks or bonds which delist. # tips tatoufan Feb 02, 07:06

Antibody, please scrub this message. Panda accidentally tagged TOWNI here. {nm} Paul2k Feb 02, 18:28

OK, there are a couple of things to talk about here. Roger More Feb 02, 19:56

I've been playing just over 2 years and the TAG that Roger More just referenced blew my mind Dionisio Feb 02, 22:03

Starbonds are simple - there's plenty of easy money and no real mystery. Everyone should be able to do it. RogerMore Feb 03, 08:33

Beg to differ about 'very small Ports not investing in MovieStock IPO's'. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Feb 03, 11:39

Yes, but you know how they perform. A normal small port (usually newbies) don't really know when to pull the trigger and cash out... {nm} slappydavid Feb 03, 13:13

You're a professional YTD trader who knows what risks to take. Panda's new to HSX and on a learning curve. So, different strokes. {nm} RogerMore Feb 03, 13:16

Most recent example - Bought (TRON3) at 70.00 IPO Price - Sold at 80.30. 18 Hour Hold. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Feb 03, 14:55

Again, you have an idea of the risks, plays and opportunity costs involved in that trade. Someone completely new to the game does not. {nm} RogerMore Feb 03, 15:51

This is a high risk/high reward potential method. Not recommended for newest players... IMHO. {nm} RocketYTD2013 Feb 03, 16:00

You suggest a strategy then recommend against it. So, basically, you just wanted to brag? {nm} eyescovered Feb 04, 04:08

Read the poster's name closer. {nm} RocketYTD2013 Feb 04, 08:56

Apologies, Rocket! : ) {nm} eyescovered Feb 04, 09:38

Too funny. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Feb 04, 12:07

BTW, you can slow down on your main port and let me catch up now, OK? eyescovered Feb 04, 13:21

Commission is actually 1%, minimum 2 cents per share (under c in Glossary) {nm} Rednax Feb 02, 08:58

Which also means that once a stock gets below 2$, it is 2¢ per share at all times. {nm} RocketYTD2013 Feb 03, 16:02

This is a great thread....Good questions and good answers...The worst thing is to be the 4th child..the one who Buy BONDS 20 coming soon Feb 03, 12:56

Easy With Common Sense (: Newb, or not. Panda Feb 03, 17:13

But I proobably don't know it all. (; {nm} Panda Feb 03, 17:23

Sure - you are right that there is good money in IPOs, but it is just a little harder to crack. RogerMore Feb 04, 09:11

Re: Tron3 Panda Feb 05, 00:47

That's not necessarily right, even if most of the time it's the right way to go (only on IPO day) slappydavid Feb 05, 06:56

I don't know that anyone has looked at this systematically, but here are my general thoughts on trading IPOs: RogerMore Feb 05, 09:26

Don't Forget to play a 1-3 Penny Stock. You can strike gold!!! {nm} mike255 Feb 05, 11:47
