Previous thread: >>1010388
ASTI will probably hit 0
>>1014523
ASTI will hit a dollar, just you watch
>>1014529
Just curious what makes you think this. The stock is very diluted right now.
>>1014532
I'm joking. I'm hoping it hits .20 at least.
>>1014538
You're not who I replied to. And besides, you hope the stock goes down lol?
>>1014541
I am, I'm just on mobile.
So can someone shed some light on my Robinhood application. It went from 0 to 1, anyone know what that means?
>>1014541
Oops I though it was at 0.24.
Mfw someone's asks shekreli to TA ASTI, he goes over it for 6 seconds then says fuckkkk no.
>>1014554
Isn't he busy getting introduced to Bubba?
>>1014554
B-b-but ASTI to da moon!
So now that ASTI is bearish, what's the next best Penny stock?
>>1014567
I'm looking at CETC and QTM
>>1014584
CETC looking promising, any idea why it's rising?
>>1014599
Nope.
>>1014604
To da moon?
>>1014606
Wouldn't count on it. BUT its probably pretty easy to make some decent money if you buy in at the right time. I like QTM and CETC because they seem to have pretty semi consistent ups and downs. I'm waiting for the next down turn then I'll probably stick 15% of my buying power into each and see what happens.
>>1014613
You thing cetc will hit 1.00 haha?
>>1014622
Oh right the delisting. hmm maybe not.
>ASTI
Hahahahaha
What is /biz/'s opinion on ADAT?
Hey gents,
major noob, but I want to learn what I can and start investing.
what are the limitations to Robinhood?
can you set 'stop losses' and shit like that automatically?
is it all real time trading with no delay?
what would you guys suggest for a real market simulator so I can practice?
any other advice in how you go about picking stocks, and different strategies would be helpful
>>1014703
only pick meme stocks.
Always use Stop-Loss/Limit Orders, etc.
There is no secret book to investing. Look at putting some money into Vanguard ETF's.
Where should I try to find information on tech and pharmaceutical companies?
I already have a subscription to the Wall Street Journal through my university and I'm tracking my stocks through yahoo finance but I'm just having trouble learning about new companies.
Also does anyone have a good program to view candlestick charts?
>>1014708
Appreciate it,
every little piece of advice helps.
So once again, I take it robinhood has these built in tools?
What is robinhood missing?
Why is it free
Must be some negatives no?
>>1014730
I use tradingview.com
>>1014644
hold
>>1014732
At least read robinhood's faq and answer some of your own questions.
Has anyone had experience with a fortune teller? I'm thinking is visiting my local fortune teller and asking her about some stock.
>>1014828
i find its a lot easier to just use a home ouija board
>>1014828
Send her an email asking if her business goes public soon. She's obviously doing well in an economy like this, you want to be on that instant money train.
Hey guys do any of you have any resources on literacy?
>>1014755
nice site, had never heard of it, thanks
>>1014543
me too, I just sent them my social security about 6 days ago
>>1014828
>wanting to invest in an amateur con artist
/RGT/ everybody lmao.
>>1015202
It's been about 2 days. So it went from a 0 to 1 also?
Are you guys ready for ASTI to shoot to the moon riding on the back of the CES hype!
>>1015305
Who are you trying to kid?
>>1014513
>$0 commissions
Where's the catch?
>>1015438
No short selling
Trades take 3 days to settle
Shit execution speed on market orders
Alright boys. What's the meme stock today?
It's monday. What stock is gonna CRASH, hit the floor, and fucking DIE? Because I want to BUY that shit.
>>1015506
ASTI, NETE, QTM
>>1015508
ASTI is pretty low considering what it has going for it. I'm in at .148, I think it will hit the .20s within the next couple weeks.
>>1015513
What, exactly, does it have going for it?
>>1015513
Uhhhh so ASTI is fucked? fuck
>>1015528
& also, the top brass at ASTI is an Arab, a Chinaman, and a Latino. Sounds like a diversity club, not a successful corporation.
>>1015531
Government contract and they have a booth at the LA show next week
PRSN is on the rise. To the moon I say
>>1015533
I sincerely believed ASTI would recover until I saw this
Brehs, gbsn is looking pretty
What do you guys think?
>>1015572
To da moon
I still have hope in ASTI, too.
>>1015572
Fuck no

JUST
Today is bearish af thank goodness I set up stop losses and left a net positive.
If I only have a thousand dollars should I bother diversifying? If so how much?
>>1015580
I wanted to get in on gbsn Friday for the quick buck but the market was closed. Quick buck is gone, avoid the noid. OPK is looking good though
>>1015597
I always aim for 15-20 sectors. Start buying 100 ish per sector and buy into new sectors as you gain more.
>>1015597
Yes. Split it into thirds. With a thousand, you could hold three stocks in three different industries easy. It's mostly just a hedge against any one sector having a shit day/week.
Buy SFXE while its low! Guarenteed gains this week!
SFXE just tumbled hard. Buy in while you can
>>1015528
What are you using to view that info?
>>1015620
It's the Interactive Brokers software. Using a paper trading account. I intend to use IB once I have about $5,000 to play with.
>>1015632
Isn't IBs minimum deposit $10k though
>>1015273
Yea
Why is natural gas rising?
SNTA is going to be .50 by the end of the week. Lots of volume today. NETE is down overall but I'm holding for .27 by later in the week. XGTI needs some volume but it should go back to .24 to .25 soon
>>1015660
Cold weather. I bought in at 1.86 on UGAZ last week. Expect it to rise all through january.
>>1015693
fastning. Why do you believe that SNTA will rise?
>>1015703
Severely underpriced. If you look at their Financials they really should already be closer to .60. Solid debt to equity ratio and cash per share of .64. Nothings for sure but it's a fuck of a lot safer investment than ASTI and some of these other falling knife memes
Why am I getting "not enough shares to sell"? I even tried just one
>>1015739
>You may receive a “Not enough shares to sell” message when there is a pending order for the shares you are looking to sell. Please make sure any pending orders for the shares you are looking to sell are cancelled prior to placing an order.

>>1015655
If you're under 25 it's $3000 I'm pretty sure.
>>1015494
Guys, whats this mean?
That you can't buy then sell instantly?
Does this effect the bottom price stop tools?
I'm a beginner trying to learn everything I can
And once again,
What is a good market simulator for practice?
Or should I say fuck practice
Why is everyone on Twit saying ASTI is so bullish?
>>1015756
Cash account only. There are no margin accounts yet.
After you sell a security, you have to wait 3 days for the funds to settle.
There are stop functions.
Fuck practice, just put $10 into Robinhood and trade penny stocks.
Read about valuation analysis if you want to invest for real.
FXCM lol
>>1015765
GOD FUCKING DAMMIT
>>1015770
yeah a friend told me and I was hesitant because I only had $100 buying power and it was $11 lol...
>>1015774
Why did it 2 da moon?
>>1015781
no clue lol, there wasn't even any news on it this morning. people just buying it up
Did NNVC hit their high today? I feel like it could still go up
>>1015784
You should listen to your friend next time and tell me what he says too lol
>>1015762
Ah I see, so you can't cash out when you want..
And if I use cash, theres no limits?
>>1015756
Fuck practice. You need to have your money doing something.
>>1015796
No limits? Like, limit orders? There's 4 order types:
Market
Limit
Stop-loss
Stop-limit
If you mean how much you can have in your account, there's no limit or minimum.
Am I doing it right
>>1015805
I'd do at least $30. You'll have to invest in penny stocks though.
XNET Will surely rise, r-right guys?
>>1015802
Sorry meant, no limits on what you can do with this all, as compared to other trading tools
>>1015748
Its more dependant on the northeast forecast. They use it more for heat and electric generation. I imagine alot of power companies locked in supply contracts today or last week.
>>1015817
No, Robinhood is a lot smaller in scope. It's only stocks and ETFs. Probably only NYSE and NASDAQ I think. No international markets.
It's very simple and small in scope.
>>1015821
Do some of your own research. Don't just trust people.
If you want to buy one of these meme stocks like ASTI, the name of the game is to be FAST. Don't hold on to a meme stock because they trend downwards and could lose 90% of their value at any time.
I like to buy stock during a record low price, and sell it 1-3 days later.
>>1015821
>Yes Goy! ASTI will surely rise!
It's been stuck at 0.14 for the past 5 fucking days
>>1015825
Appreciate your input.
So where would I begin to start tracking these sorts of things,
Pay attention to the trend lines on the app itself?
Specific reading on some sites?
How much do you guys have in this app? How much are you making?
>>1015831
I haven't made shit because my application hasn't been approved yet.
>>1015832
Shit, why do we have to apply?
What are the conditions for acceptance?
>>1015834
A Social Security number and ID. They might take a while to validate your account though.
So, anyone who has an account..
What kind of money do you put in, how much have you made?
(For inspiration purposes)
>>1015841
225, started about three weeks ago, only made a few bucks but mostly because I was off to a great start (lost 10 bucks).
>>1015844
So you can sell stock instantly, but it just takes like 3 days for the money to hit your account?
>>1015846
Yes.
>>1015847
Well that's not so bad.
>>1015810
Kek
>>1015851
What?
>>1015850
3/5 of opportunity taken b/c you didn't want to pay $10
>>1015841
Started with 115. Was up 30 trading 3x commodity ETF's. Thought i could pick stocks. Lost the 30 plus another 15. Back to commodities only. 14 on the day. Thats all in the course of 2 months.
>>1015841
Got verified last week and put $100 in for educational purposes. Lost about $0.60 last week on X (looking at today's performance I'm glad I cut my losses). Still holding out for ASTI but the moon is starting to look awfully far away...
>>1015866
I'd wait until Jan 5-8. That's CES, and they want to show something there. If nothing, just dump them and take the loss. That's my plan.
DNOW is gonna rocket this week
>>1015853
Are you retarded?
>>1015873
Yeah that's what I'm planning on doing too. What are you hoping it goes up to?
>>1015898
The moon, obviously.
>>1015857
Do you know a good place to view a list of 3x commodity ETFs that we can trade on Robinhood?
There is a company i am interested in but it is listed on the OTC BB and i have no experience of trading on such a platform. Im a UK resident and normally trade on the FTSE and AIM.
Can somebody tell me more about the fees i would have to go through to trade on such a platform and how i go about doing? I want to do a bit of quick trading like the stock im looking at would probably hit its sell point in a matter of five days.
many thanks
>>1015866
>Lost money on X
Yeah anon they got cucked by the government. We finally put huge trade tarrifs (over 200%) on China, but the same tariff bill was like 3-6% for Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Italy, etc.
So China just sells to Vietnam and they sell to us.
Look at WAVX familia

>>1016005
You lost money? On what?
>>1016007
lose. Lose money with friends.
>>1016008
It's supposed to reach the moon in January
>>1016020
err /rgt/.
Robinhood sells itself as cheap brokerage. The reality is they're simply looking to capture your volume and use it elsewhere cheaper than the majors.
I'll wait and see before i pass final judgement.

>>1016219
>*Only works for US citizens right now (Australians can get on a wait list for the Australian beta)
>>1015915
Here is one list i found. Not all are available. Just search leveraged etf lists. Yo will find a ton
https://www.stocktrader.com/long-etfs-bullish-etf-funds-2x-3x-leverage/
>>1015915
Also search inverse leveraged etf lists. That way you can make money when it goes down. The fee charged by the etf can be high so make sure you will clear 3% or more. If not you just break even.

do you really need all that shit tho
I really really really hope ASTI isn't a meme

O-oh
Does any1 have any idea why UGAZ was up more than 25% ?
>>1016345
Late 2016
>>1016389
Historic blizzards. Sudden forecast change for the northeast to be cold as balls. Plus it hit a 17 year low so bargain hunters went nuts. Im up 25$ on a 85$ bet still ridin it out. To tha moon
>>1016389
Oh and storage reports have been in the negative for 3 weeks now
>>1016063
How about not being able to sell your stock when it plummets after the bell?
>>1016562
But...thats not a hidden fee.
>>1016571
>>1016603
It's really not
Asti almost .17 after hours god damnit
Where is that fucking SFXE shill now? I bought $6k worth of this piece of crap at .39 believing in easy gainz and all I've got is this
http://www.bizjournals.com/newyork/news/2015/12/28/report-live-nation-exec-will-not-join-troubled-sfx.html
Jesus fucking Christ
Should I commit sudoku?
>>1016681
Relax, brother. SFXE has solid fundamentals. Attendance is increasing every year. This is a rough spot, no doubt. We just have to be strong and hold out 'til January.
>>1016685
Can you elbaorate on the upside of SFXE. I like the idea of investing in a pop culture craze of the moment, especially since I can vibe with it....but I've been burned thousands by /biz/'s shit SUNE advice, so pardon my skepticism.
>>1016691
>shit SUNE advice
?
Those thousands you've burned, are they realized or unrealized losses? If they're realized, that means you sold, which means you don't understand what you're doing and should not be participating in the stock market. The entire point of investing in solar is to hold for the long term investment in solar infrastructure.
ASTI is rising. Severely unexpected. Is this going to drop in a few seconds?
Today's the day friends, $0.20 is coming
>>1016705
Idk I just sold at .16 and I bought at .15. I kind of just took it since it was finally a decent return.
Currently only buying in to stocks that I can afford 100 shares of. This way every penny they go up is a $1 I've made. Anyways, I'm all out of stocks to buy and I've got about $25 to spend.
So need some ideas for stocks trading at or below $.25 to get at.
Meme me up Scotty.
>>1016712
Hmmm.
Go ahead and get some SFXE while you can, brother. 2016 is the year.
>>1016695
This is the Robinhood thread. I come here to invest in short-term, entirely too high risk, meme stocks. I don't have the patience for your "long term investment" nonsense.
Holy Christ.
ASTI got a new patent.
It's goign to the moon today, you lucky sonsabitches. Fuck my life.
>>1016719
I was getting really concerned over my purchase of ASTI. They also settled a lawsuit, but didn't say how.
>>1016714
Live Nation is opting out of buying them out... Is this bad news that the market hasn't reciprocated?
FXCM again boys
So $ASTI or $SFXE?
$ASTI seems to have better current news(and it's cheaper)... $SFXE is not on a positive note it seems.
>>1016726
The news was yesterday. It's not that they're not being bought out. The CEO of Live Nation was in talks to leave and join up with SFXE. Yesterday NY Post reported he wasn't going to. Dropped 20%
It's not bad really.
>put in stop loss for ASTI to keep gainz
>RH decides to just fuck my shit up and sell my shit anyway
Still got a 16% gain, but meh
>>1016729
Do you want to buy high and sell low? Then buy ASTI right now.
>>1016733
I'd like to do the opposite of that, yeah.
>People didn't buy AMD 2 weeks ago
>People are buying into ASTI now when it's going to go back to 0.14~ in a day or so
this should be called gamblers general
>>1016681
SFXE shill here, it dropped to mid and low 20s so that was the time to buy, when it rises back into 30,40, maybe even 50s is the time to sell
>>1016754
It WILL NOT go above 0.35
dont kid yourself
>>1016748
>people that buy high and sell low
smdh senpai
>>1016764
see, someone who agrees with me. dont buy asti now idiots
>>1016748
>wins patent lawsuit
>a bad thing
Anyone else ridin the UGAZ rocket? up 30% in two days.
>>1016764
xDDDDD
>>1014513
No trailing stop loss options for RH?
>>1016771
Did that actually happen?
>>1016773
No, they don't have plans right now for it either. I wish they would. Would make this app 10 stars.
>>1016777
>777
ITS HAPPENING
>>1016777
It kind of did, with a 10% drop in the market, but we had a quick recovery because, now that everyone WANTS a crash, people buy in when they see a crash happening. Since people are buying in instead of selling, the crash stops.
Essentially the whole "major crash, major recovery" cycle is done now that the boomers are mostly broke/retired and the remaining stock holder population understands how to benefit from market trends. (which ironically prevents said market trends)
It's like big oil companies. All the small oil companies dropped by 50-70%, but everyone knows that big oil companies will eventually come back, so people bought into them in hopes of making money. As a result, bigger oil companies only dropped 10-20% because there's still a high demand. It's weird.
>>1016780
For real. Would lower my stress levels by a boatload
>>1016768
Sold mine this morning, starting to regret it...
>>1016782
So if they've essentially figured out the best thing to do, and it's preventing the best thing from happening, where do they go next to make money with the stock market?
>>1016793
That's the $1,000,000 question, anon.
I got lucky once and have been bleeding out since then
Okay, $SFXE 100 shares at .24 purchased.
>>1016811
idiot
>>1016811
Don't listen to the haters. Took the weekend to go through this company's earnings reports and assets, and I'm definitely giving it a strong buy at this price. #bullish
>>1016818
Care to share them to show you're not full of shit? have you seen the graph? It's been a downward slope since the start, it's only going to continue
>>1016819
All the SEC filings are public, just take a look at their 10-Q's, not to mention they own a lot of their assets. The slope is evening out, 2016 should prove to be a strong year for the stock one way or another and at this price it's practically a steal.
>>1016821
Just did a quick skim through, you're literally retarded, this stock will not go higher than $0.5
>>1016831
And what's it priced at now? By your own estimate, it stands to see a 100% increase, that's pretty strong in my opinion.
I wish someone would shoot David "Cock Suck" Tepper Right in the fucking head.
>>1016647
Yeah, it's not a hidden fee.
It's really more of a "hidden guy waiting to fuck you in the ass".
>>1016831
>The stock will not go higher than literally doubling your money.
Oh noooooo

So wait how long does it take to sell??

>>1016882
>>1016884
>>1016894
Not a terrible outlook desu
>>1016922
This stock trades on barely any volume.
Did INVT double today because of a pump? I can't find any news related to the 100% gain.
>>1016930
Does this mean it'll be hard to dump if it goes up?
>>1016922
What app?
Also, ASTI is hitting the tip of a cone. Let's see which direction it breaks towards :^)
>>1016922
What app is this?
>>1016939
>>1016942
ChartPro
>>1016945
Thanks. How often does it update?
>>1016951
As frequently as 10 seconds, dunno how current the info is though. I'm really new to all this and I just found this app last weekend but it seems breddy gud so far
Have you guys seen the volume for UGAZ?
>>1016971
Hadn't noticed but holy hell, over 4x the average. Is that a lot? Seems like a lot.
>>1016980
I wanna buy before the bubble burst

I tend to stay away from pharmaceutical companies. This one looks like it may have some potential though.
Anyone have any news on NETE or XGTI? xG hasn't moved below .23 or above .24 all week and it's starting to get frustrating. Also I can't figure out if NETE is on sale for .20 or if it's entering a downtrend.

Newbie here, but can you avoid pharm completely and still have a decently balanced portfolio?
Also, just wondering, why do you personally avoid pharm stock?
