Playing & Trading Strategy

Maybe. Or it could be inadvertent.

Posted by: dubord.s on Aug 18, 07:30 in response to NeilSite's post I have a theory...

I can't really argue against much of your theory - I don't have any facts to back up either side.

But in terms of the massive swings, especially on IPOs, there's a clear trend with some of these that get huge volumes trading. They seem to go on wild swings one way or the other, and then back and forth, for days (or even weeks). Is it market manipulation causing it? Maybe. But while I'm not part of any covert group of manipulators, I've benefited from it by closely watching a few stocks that are part of the swings, and jump on and off at the right time to maximize my gains. If a whole bunch of people are doing the same, then the swings become even more exagerated, and everyone playing those trends make even more money.

Lately I noticed some fairly big spikes with TFRM7, JUNGC, and since its IPO, XXX4. SPACS went through it too.

So ya, maybe there is some scheme at play - I don't know. All I know is if you time it right, you can play it to your advantage if you can catch the wave when "THEY" start the move.

grory is a woman, fyi, and once she hit #1, she retired - her $ holdings did not disappear when she retired; she is not a manipulator {nm} daveart Aug 18, 08:45

Yep. Plus, grory has the lowest YTD gain of the top 10 traders. The suggestion that she is a manipulator is not well thought out. {nm} RogerMore Aug 18, 09:29

Neil, you don't have to spend a lot of time here to do well at the game. DTravel Aug 23, 12:48

In the times I'd forget to check in for a year or more, I'd notice my rank went way down simply due to people passing me. {nm} arf Aug 30, 17:43

I hold every MovieStock; more than half short. I now only make a couple of trades a day. Still doing well. {nm} edzep -- Port Monkey! Aug 24, 04:52
