  • For the past 11wks I’ve averaged a growth rate of 2-3%/wk investing online. Is this good?

    I manage my own stock through a discount broker (like Scottrade, Etrade, Ameritrade, etc.). Like everybody else, I was hit hard last year with the housing collapse. I’ve decided to start comparing my against the DJIA500, S&P500, and NASDAQ. If I can’t beat them, then I’m going to open an IRA.
    I’m out performing them so far, but I have understanding on how to calculate my risk right now. And, this is still very short term. Is 2 to 3 percent growth a week good? Bad? The average (as I write this) is 3.08% for the 11 weeks.

  • Are any of the new stock market beginners having trouble?

    I have been experimenting with an idea that has proved to be very worthwhile. I signed up for a gae at: http://www.smartstocks.com, they provide you with .M to start off with and help you keep track of how much you spend on stock purchases, what your current Cash amount is and so on.

    If I am not to sure about whether a stock is going to go up in value or not, I will buy 1000 shares of that stock on this game and then monitor it. If this stock does well, then I go to my laptop and purchase 1000 shares of this stock online, I try to buy when the stock price is low and then sell when its high. I only use this game to guage which way the stock I am interested in will run, and according to the records on this game, I am ahead ,000.00 in profit, but I only started doing this with the game on June 24, 2008, so thats a profit of K in less than 7 days.

    Doing it online with my laptop, I have earned K in these 7 days of buying and selling
    and with the game, I have had to deal constantly with a hacker that enjoys messing with the live stock quotes, and manipulating the number of shares I purchase and the quotes, but they can’t mess with the actual stock buying I do on my laptop since its using a confidential system that is hacker proof. So, if you are having some difficulty buying and selling , you might want to try this method as it might help you to improve your profit margins.

    Has anyone ever heard of using such a method in the past? Let me know what you think of this and if you have anything constructive to add that might help to improve this method.

    Thank you!
    I am also using a method that my father used that earned him between K to K a week, every week, except during the holidays and thats because we usually spent the holidays down in Tahati. This method does work, even when oil goes up in price, now I am wondering if I can double my profit margins by combining another method he sometimes used to boost his profits.
    muncie birder: Thank you
    Rabbit: This is what I am doing, using it as a tool or guage on how strong a stock is before investing real in live trades.

    This method is working for me and if there are people that think I am setting myself up for a major disappointment by using this tool, then I have to disagree with you. So far, I have been making some real good using it.

    Everyone is looking for a system for playing the , just like everyone looks for a system when gambling at Vegas. My dad’s system for the works quite well, as long as you do not get greedy. Thats the key to always remember.

    I am sorry those of you who feel I am setting myself up for a major disappointment feel this way, I don’t!

    I have also learned how to play over a wide margin, sort of like hedging my bets, I will lose on some, but the losses are made up with the ones that hit it big, its just knowing which to buy and the key to this is, how many shares to buy of that particular stock.
    Today is July 2, 2008 at 9:58AM Houston Time and so far I have earned a total of ,875.00 in pure profits from selling: BIDU 1000 shares at 7.44 (I paid 3.24), YHOO 5003 shares at .50 (I paid .20), RIMM 100 shares at 1.76 (I paid 0.98) and DELL 100 shares at .12 (I paid .18), for a grand total of: ,875.00

    And the ironic part about this is, this is consistent, so anyone that thinks I am setting myself up for a major disappointment by doing this and using this much loved stock method, is NUTS!
    My dad’s stock methods do work and I am getting rich because of it.
    Oh how I love this job!
    Note; I do have ups and downs,who doesn’t, but for the past three months, I have been averaging around K per day, so this method I am using is very workable and consistent.
    I still have 1000 shares of GOOG floating, I paid 4.73 per share and because GOOG goes down sometimes, its well worth my time to keep this stock, because when it goes up in value, its not for a couple of dollars per share, but for .00 to .00 PLUS per share. I also have FSLR 100 shares, ORCL 1000 shares, RTP 25 shares and ESLR 1000 shares.
    Since its about time for the oil to go up again, then on 7.3.08 I will buy MEE 1000, PCX 100 and JRCC 1000, and maybe even XOM 100, GLD 100 and DYN 10000. Will have to see what happens today.
    today is Monday July 7, 2008 and after doing my homework, I picked 11 for today and hit paydirt on everyone of them, for a total of ,940.00! Actually its a little bit more than this cause I invested over half a million into GM and made out like a bandit.

    This method that I am using does work, I have proved it to myself and I am my biggest critic. If someone needs some help learning how to play the , email me and I will do what I can to get you going in the most profitable direction possible. Thank you
    7.8.08 major disappointment today, was only looking for a small profit on some , but got major returns on all of them, earned ,256.00 pure profits. If this is a bad day, I wonder what a good day would be like? Will sit out the stock game on Wednesday 7.9.08 and watch. Time for oil to go back up, won’t invest in oil
    Net Advisor: Although you appear to be knowledgeable about and you claim to be a ‘crack’ detective on black box methods, you should really know better than to ask me what my secret is for making successful stock , that isn’t being polite! and, as afr as me ‘working’ for someone else managing their funds, even at being paid millions of dollars (USD, I assume) is not worth it to me, I am doing pretty darn good for myself, doing what I do, and my methods will always remain my methods because once you allow others to see how you are making such excellent returns, then these methods are no longer a secret are they? My dad used these methods and earned a healthy profit every week, except during the holidays. And insofar as e ‘proving’ to you what my methods are for winning at the stock game, I believe you will just have to keep wondering, as its none of your business.

    And, with all the ‘knowledge and skills’ you have at investing and playing SEC detective, ………
    you are still working and not a self-made billionaire? and in regards to my laptop, which is hacker proof, I was using a desktop before to buy and sell , but learned that a hacker who also is working for yahoo! Inc as an employee and using their servers, was disrupting my computer operations daily, so I went and got a Sony laptop and had a very secure system built into it to prevent this from happening again. I use the desktop for research and the actual investing and selling of stock on my laptop, the desktop is not using a wireless unit, the laptop is.

    And, I do want to thank you in advance for your continued support!
