100 @ 218.44 :mjcry:

:ld:

It says the rumored buyout is between 17 and 18 billion. That puts the final share price between $223 and $236 or so. You might make anywhere from a few hundred bucks to a few thousand. Not sure if that risk is worth it for me. Inevitably share prices always trickle back down after buyout rumors, unless it's 100% solid, offer on table... so you'll either need some courage and patience, or cut out now.

Hopefully the buyout is beyond 18 bill.

On another note. I've figured out a way to get back up one trade at a time - since getting cut in fukkin half with that idiotic TWTR trade

PDT-rule is on my case HEAVY..My broker has these things called CFD's, which are = stocks, just offered by the broker. They allow a playa to trade unlimited amounts, since it's not between me and SEC, but me and the broker. For obvious reasons, these sneaky fukks offer like 3-4 x account leverages on them (with AAPL they offer 10 x leverage)... They only have these for the bigger market cap stocks, and they have to have hella liquidity..

So I just use very tight stop losses, since losses are also magnified, but when getting in at the cheapest points -> I can be making very nice trades.

Could've made fukkin 500 bucks on AAPL today with that 2%ish move - a cool 20% more to my actual account size brehs :wow:

MCD has a nice setup there for me (1% moves = 200 in profits playaaa). Tomorrow I'm looking to cop high 98s or low 99s, and sell right at 100 test - or if bulls come in rolling, I ofcourse let it ride.

Do holla if you guys see any nice setups out there. Ya boy starving out here :francis:

I'm gonna get back up though, no sweat.

I have never heard of CFDs. Are you American?

Are they like repos?

Edit: Who's your broker? You don't want them pulling a FXCM. Levering up 10-1 :heh:

What's that counter-party risk looking like, playa?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contract_for_difference

My broker uses Interactive Broker's platform and all their shyt goes through IB. Broker called Lynx. It's 100% legit as fukk so I'm good on that end of things...

African breh, living in Finland. No ties to the US, so I can trade CFD's.

Counter-party, say what?

Counter-party meaning the guy on the other side of the trade could fail if the market moves against him. And then you dont get paid because they have no money.

There's a currency broker called FXCM... They were letting their clients leverage up 10 to 1... Look what happened to them a month ago or so. Thats what I was alluding to.

I was basically asking are you going through a good broker?

Does anyone here trade through Robinhood?


I'm looking for a long term aggressive mutual fund that I can possibility get quarterly dividends or disbursement if possible. A plus would be that I can buy stocks from the mutual fund to also invest. I'm already have a roth and a traditional investor growth fund with my bank right now if that helps :yeshrug:.

@sayyestothis is a financial advisor at a top 10 bank.

Do some research.

http://money.usnews.com/funds/mutual-funds

let me preface this by saying I'm not a financial adviser, I'm actually not a huge mutual fund fan either so I'm probably not the best to ask. US News & World Report gathers all the rankings by groups like Morningstar, Lipper, Zacks, S&P, etc. into lists of the best mutual funds. That may be a good place to start. Just google "best mutual funds" or something similar you should be able to find the site.

Why don't you like MFs?
