So I've noticed a historical price trend with FREE

Typically whatever it opens at, you can set a limit order of .003 less and that'll be the low of the day. Sometimes it goes +.001 or so lower but on average the low seems to be .003 minus the opening price if you wake up early enough to see what it is right of the bat. Gonna try this next week and see what happens.

1. Check opening price
2. Immediately set a limit order to buy shares at .003 minus the opening price.
3. Once bought, immediately set a limit sell for .001 plus the opening cost.
4. ...
5. Profit

FREE's daily numbers seems like it all works off the opening price.

Fairly dumb question time.

I know you can't short sell in robinhood yet but these seem to be the market threads right now and I'm doing this in the simulator but; when you buy and short sell the same stock I think that's called a married hedge or something. Why is this a dumb idea? Or why not? Is it because you have to pay commission or fees on the short sell or something to keep it open? I'm just trying to get through to the basics of this and need to have these basic dumb questions explained in a simple way.

It was the first deposit thing that threw me off. Said stuff about the first $1,000 you deposit and, paraphrasing, misread it as "$1,000 is immediately available to you."

What does it say about the first 1k?

That it's immediately available when you deposit it.
If you go over $1,000, the additional is available in a couple days.
Under, it's immediately available.

Pretty much this. Long lasting dividend stocks always make money, because they're bigass companies that pay dividends. My personal fav, Frontier. Cheapass stock (rangebound at about $5 a share,) been paying out $0.40 a year in dividends since 2012 (down from about $0.80/year.) I hold 9780 shares (bought 20/30 at a time every pay period for years now, plus reinvesting dividends.) Next dividend will be $1025 or so into my account, another 205 shares. Next dividend (assuming it sticks at .105/sh) will pay right at 1050, another 208 shares. Just grows.

Looking for other points of view. I bought into solar city (stcy) at an average of 26.60 a share. To date its 56.91. I wasn't expecting it to grow so quickly, I was planning on it having a good first quarter. I think it'll continue to raise due to current news involving green energy. So I'm gonna hold until the first quarter, but I'm curious of how high it will climb.

BECAUSE the point of the format and thread pic is to draw new visitors browsing /biz/ to the /rgt/ thread. If it looks like a professional/reoccurring thread that people take seriously and has a pic saying something along the lines of free trading more people are likely to open/view/join the thread to see what it's all about. The way it should be formatted makes it stick out on the home page, similar to the way the /dbt/ sticks out on /o/.


tl;dr - The format isn't for people already in here, it's specifically meant to attract in new people ya dingus.

I think if I understood currency markets better or anything where the volatility was not too high it could be very nice to expose that with the leverage but still. That is not me yet.

I need to stick to learning what the fuck I'm doing first.
>>
>>1008625

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask the question I came here to ask. There's lots of stuff in here that is marked as CFD (Contract for difference) and the same thing again but marked as DFT which I think stands for Daily Funded Trade. I've tried to look it up and figure out exactly what it is but I can't seem to find a simple explanation of what it is and why it's different.

Anyone able to explain it in a simple, meaningful way?

Yeah but the people here aren't playing with any serious volume. If you have 10K shares of something like FTR or HIHO, it can be worth it for a long time hold. It should only be a part of one's portfolio though.

Just diversify. At any given time, my book is 1/4 blue chip, 1/4 something I've really researched and liked, 1/4 dividend, and 1/4 biotech/small cap bet. So even if the market is having a bad day, my odds of being completely in the red drop significantly. Long as there's action and I'm moving forward, even slowly, I'm satisfied.
>>
>>1008527
For the purposes of Robinhood you just trade as many times as you can and have fun. For your retirement fund investing in dividend stocks is pretty awesome. Its like getting thousands of dollars of free money every year + anything you make off the stock.

AAPL bought at its low of 90 = +25 bucks a share + all the dividends is really nice.

That little rally right at the end completely pulled me back. That wasn't even a very volatile day but that was still a wild ride. Not sure my heart, balls or underpants could sustain this with real money.

Huh that was weird too. There were a couple of things I left open. The index cfd which just kept climbing for about 15 mins after the market closed then eventually did close. I presumed that was the settlement time or whatever but then it opened again and it just kept on going up so I closed it off and realised that gain. I was just going to leave it open for shits and giggles until the next session.

And the other thing that is still ticking along is the EUR/USD cfd. How is this allowed? The markets have closed? I can in fact still buy back into the index one as well or so it seems. The fuck?
>>
>>1008820

And then its closed off again. but the currency one still ticks along.

I'll shut up now. But if anyone can explain any of this shit, please do.

PER mian Sandridge Trust, a little over 2 dollars per share, pays a dollar a year or so, but this is oil money boys, and god knows if they can keep that up with cheap prices.
Trusts are an interesting dividend paying class, say there was an apartment/commercial building owned by a trust.
Income from rents would be divided between maintenance, staff, all the opex (operating expenses and paying share holders.
There is an End of Life for most trusts, when the building is no longer serviceable for example, at that point, the land is sold and proceeds plus anything left in the bank is divided again between shareholders, stock is packed up and rolled off.

brokers push this idea as:

you open a long and short on a stock. i.e. NYSE: ABC

say the share is at $1.00 and you go long 100 shares, and short 100 shares.

the share price trends to $0.50. so you have 100 shares worth $50, and shorts worth $150.

theoretically, you are neutral, and the idea is you close the losing trade and ride the trend further.

i.e., you sell your 50 shares for $50, and wait for the price to trend to $40, then close the shorts for $160. your total cash now is $210, or 5% profit. not bad for a single trade

BUT WAIT THERES MORE

the broker will charge you a commission which is usually ~1% per trade. so actually you paid $1 to buy shares, $1 to open shorts, $1 to sell shares, and $1 to close shorts. so $210 becomes $206, which is 3% roi. more importantly, when you open the trades you are instantly $4 in the red, so if the trend only moves a little bit, you dont even make moeny. you basically pay a broker to hold a trade open for you and close it at break even/loss.

all these hybrids/weird shit futures are just bullshit. the only thing you need to do is go long and short on equities, with or without leverage. anything else is just bullshit designed to make brokers money and liquidity.

Yeah I guess it makes simple sense. You're just eating away at your own potential gains before you even start.

I guess the key is to try to identify companies or products or services that act in opposition to each other. I read that elsewhere in that people are always looking for the perfect hedge. Not really an exact science.

BIZ!!!!! My sort of rich grandfather is getting some inheritance money (750k) next year and he asked me to manage a portion of it for him and as a graduation gift. I took some finance classes back in high school and right now I am just starting accounting in Uni and he trusting me to make sound financial decisions for part of the inheritance so I will try to make a return on the money he let's me invest with.

My one personal rule to avoid draining money is to pick my personal 5 sort of risky but also profitable companies to invest in. For now I am using Robinhood but will switch to Vanguard Admiral S&P500 and TD Ameritrade when the money comes in.

Facebook, Netflix, Apple,
Amazon, Alphabet(GOOG)

But I still need advice...
Can someone help me compare which company has the best P.E and E.P.S. ratios of these companies?
Also which selection this month and next will net me the best return down the line in 6 months?

Also, keep in mind that if I choose to invest in Amazon or Alphabet I will have cash left over in a savings account. Thank you-Out

Im trying to withdraw my money out and it keeps failing? why is this?

It went in just fine from the bank account.
>>
>>1009555
We're not RH customer support. Ask them. Though you should know that it takes a long while to withdraw money. One anon said it would have taken him six days to withdraw, and that RH told him it was an anti-laundering procedure. Make sure you can actually withdraw the money, too. If you just sold a stock it will take three business days for it to appear in your account.
>>
>>1009554
If you just took 100k of that... And put it in to $FTR, all of it, and left it alone... You would have:

1 $5999.99 6.00 6.00 $105999.89
2 $6359.99 6.00 6.36 $112359.89
3 $6741.59 6.00 6.74 $119101.48
4 $7146.09 6.00 7.15 $126247.57
5 $7574.85 6.00 7.57 $133822.42
6 $8029.35 6.00 8.03 $141851.77
7 $8511.11 6.00 8.51 $150362.88
8 $9021.77 6.00 9.02 $159384.65
9 $9563.08 6.00 9.56 $168947.73
10 $10136.86 6.00 10.14$179084.59

That's just in 10 years, and only investing $100k. This also assumes the DIV/YIELD for $FTR stays put, and also doesn't account if it goes up. I mean in 10 years you'd have made $80,000 just in the DIV.

Do this.

>We're not RH customer support. Ask them.

No fucking shit Sherlock, I just though id ask since ive already sent multiple tickets in and nothings been done about it. I know there is a waiting period, the money has been withdrawal-able for 2 weeks.

Its over $10k so you can see why im bit irritated.
