Xeno you can work it both ways. Think about it ![]()
Plus this is a 3 month most challenge? Long term outlooks are good, but 3 months are bleak ![]()
Short-term riderz!! We run the Street!
they only thing not good about this game is, trades are not automatic....and the fee is WAY to high for reality.
I pay $7 a trade @ scottstrade. Even that is getting to be to much.
Ameritrade has 1000 moves for the first month free.
Other sites are springing up for $2-3 per trade. what you gotta be careful of here is the small print, ....what is the spread that the trader is keeping ??
THIS is important.
Xeno, stick around, you can learn something else from me ![]()
oh...."Weanies" is my word,.....find your own :<
trump tries to copyright "You're fired"
Now you claim "weanies"
There must be radon in your ground water ![]()
Now WE drink reclaimed sewage like the Fremen ![]()
Irl doe they charge more to do a limit order? Also is it universally illegal to give VIPs trading priority on etrades like NASDAQ got caught doing last decade?
Stop limit should not be charged more.
VIP trading...hmmm.....well, Im sure working w/a live broker, and moving large chunks gets you preferred seating. ![]()
Not sure if its legal to charge more for that preferred seat.
Yes,.....
..... Weanie is MINE !!!

I have XRM set to sell at $2.25 and yes I think it will get there. eventually. it was $1.97 for a while yesterday..
hey you guys know of a site which tells you who's releasing their earnings the coming day? ![]()
tryina find some companies who are...so i can put some money in ..if they should most likely beat expectations
Xerium was finally up enough to sell for a tiny marginal profit. YAY.
Now if my euro currency one will go up, or Rangold, I can finally pass Black Wing.... sooo closssssssse......
fortunately I am very sure in my stock picks other than those 2, having researched them so soundly.
Actually currency shares in euro seems a bad bad place to stay, time to drop it like a hot potato.
"Xeno you can work it both ways. Think about it"
Sure you can, but why? I have better things to do with my time than follow the herd - like RESEARCHING markets, visiting companies, talking with employees, discovering the burgeoning high yield and yet relatively low risk opportunities in rapidly developing economies, where long-term investment opportunities abound. Think about it. It's rank, noisy, and crowded in the herd, is it not? How can you put up with it? Each to his own, I suppose. But you won't find me a part of it. Think of me as the warrior-shaman-scout on horseback way ahead of the herd, getting the lay of the land, deciding which of the many bountiful grass-plains upon which the herd will graze. Think about that, you smelly sheep.
BW, and his 'free' market, lol. What makes you guys so sure of such a thing? The market is a "DOMESTICATED" herd. The only ones that are deluded from that notion are the sheep in middle of the herd itself. The sheep on the edges of the herd are somewhat aware of the dogs that bark them back into it. The sheep at the front are perhaps partially aware of the men on horseback who control the dogs. But the ones in the middle, like yourselves, (BW especially) are, sadly, oblivious to their captivity. 'Free' market. LOLZ
Now, the first step to freedom of sheep from the herd is to realise the global market is a domesticated, CAPTIVE herd, and that escaping from it is a desirable thing.
So, BW, let me free you by asking you to prove the market is 'free'.
well the NYSE is very strictly controlled it is true, becasue we don't want a guy free to take our money and wind up in Costa Rica with bearer bonds.
"So, BW, let me free you by asking you to prove the market is 'free'."
"Free" as in no restrictions of course....... You are able to do what you want, how you want, when you want. In a business sense that is. Lets not introduce illegal activities.....
But....I will say;
After that herd analogy ....... being in the middle and all.
Its ok though. I like having people w/your mind set in the world. Makes my life that much easier.
While you complain and whine about how life sucks...... I drive on positive and happy.
Early retirement to Montana, Wyoming or Utah is in the future for me.
For Xeno ?? maybe some state run nut house, or the local anarchist coffee shop to whine and complain his days away.
"For Xeno ?? maybe some state run nut house, or the local anarchist coffee shop to whine and complain his days away."
Lol. I'm already retired. Did so at age 27, and have been spending it traveling the world, and going back to the homestead every now and then for fishing and writing memoirs.
How old are you BW? 50? WTH are you still doing 'working'? LOLZYLOLZ
About complaining. I simply make observations. You see, the difference between you and I, BW, is that you see things they way the herd sees them, hooked into believing in the idealism of the 'free-market system', believing that 1. it actually IS a fair and ethically sound 'free' system, and 2. that the system makes the world as good as it possibly could be under the present circumstances. For you, the world couldn't possibly be any better, because, if it WERE possible, the all-knowing, infallible 'free market system' fairy god mother would have made it so. In your world, she flies around the world casting magical gold dust on all the companies and industries that are worthy of receiving it. I, on the other hand, see things as they really are, with a broader perspective that is simply beyond your intellectual capacity to comprehend. But more important than knowing and perceiving how the world really works, I am capable of imagining how it could work better. This, my friend, is why I retired in my twenties, and you, still, are not.
retired in your twenties ??
God bless you then. I wish I could have done the same.
I must ask.... how did you retire ? And, what level of life do yo actually live....
I mean.... I could go to the Bowery, and find a bum who is retired as well, thing is, he is not traveling the world.
So, how did you manage to retire at 27?
I think from there, if you are open and honest, after all, who knows you......I bet we can have a good convo of why I beleive in the Free Market.
Used to have a railroad, made it run
Made it run on time
Used to have a railroad, now it's gone
Brother, can you <sobs>
I have my IRL $$ in Washington Mutual bank!! ![]()
ahh....Railroad.
Can be a train traveling hobo as well.....yea.
That would make you a traveler, and you can write your memiors as you roll back into what ever your home station is.
The hat held out at every station.....
Yea.
BW
Silly man. The bum IS traveling the world.
How did I retire? Usually the banks use our money to get rich, right? Well, I just flipped it around, and used the bank's money to get rich, borrowing a ton, taking a huge risk on variable rate mortgaes on risking real estate development, and selling at near peek market value, cashing in just before the mortgage crisis.
the idea of being the "bank not a banker" is a great idea i have just read alot on it and seems extremely logical. however why would you place it into high risk investments??
i realise high risk high reward, but there are simpler ways of creating cash and having your money work for you....
just because you saw the opportunity i imagine ??
Yea....ok Xeno.
try again.
Young 20 something hedges his 300K that he was eligible to borrowing....MAYBE.... and you want to tell me, you got out, flat knowing a flop was coming ?
wanna try again ??
I mean, at least be a little more creative, why not a great idea on a cell phone OS out of college, w/a couple of buddies that Nokia or Microsoft or Sun or someone bought for a ton of cash.
Now, at least that I could swallow.
Not a cool as a cucumber snot nose out of college, no credit, borrowing a chunk, developing and selling, getting out just before the bubble w/enough to retire on for life.
And then knock the exact machine that it was that you claim you were a part of ??
ROFL.......
When you have to lie about your meager life.....be a little more creative.
Mortgages in most of the USA arent that high risk. Most states limit liability to the resale value of the property. So if you borrow $1 million on a mortgage, and default, and the bank reposesses and sells the property for $700k, the bank has to write off that $300k in most states. Thats why there's a mortagage "crisis" according to banks
oh ... bloody different laws with us and new zealand... everything is slightly different.
@BW
I'm not surprised you don't believe me. In your world, you are the smartest human being on the planet, and so no one could possibly do anything or come up with any idea you couldn't. I have to thank you, though, BW, for you have inspired a decent journal entry for one of the novels I'm writing.
