My shit is broke. Somehow all my google stock is gone and tried selling all my KBH shares almost a week ago and the order is still pending.

Did you make it a day trade or a GTC?

KBH fucked me right up the ass pretty hard last week. I tried to short it, and whoops, turns out there's a resurgence in new housing starts. Oops! :\

Well I might not know much, but I think I do know if you did not sell your shit off this morning, there is a good chance you were just proper fucked by the rate cut.

Gahid · 12-11-2007, 01:31 PM

BUY BUY BUY

yeah I'm selling all my holdings and picking up the stocks which got hit the worst.

Millie · 12-11-2007, 01:37 PM

HOLY SHIT did the rate cut just fuck me.

Although it seems to have fucked most people with relatively equal power, as my overall standing has not declined.

Gahid · 12-11-2007, 01:52 PM

also I dig how there's only three of us above straight google, at least one of which has no clue what they're doing, and one of which is the only one among us who looks like they know what they're doing.

Gahid · 12-11-2007, 01:54 PM

When you're that diversified of course you're going to get hit by a bad market.

Gahid · 12-11-2007, 01:56 PM

thing that really gets me is that I had limit sell orders on two stocks, and each were ~10c away, and today they both fell just shy of a point.

that's what I get for being greedy and trying to suck an extra litre out of a dry well (I feel the economy is much worse than popular sentiment)

Burkex · 12-11-2007, 02:11 PM

WOW Rythonn is down to $80,000 a loss of $20,000 so far. He is my hero.

Rythonn · 12-11-2007, 03:14 PM

Dude friday I was up 6k an hour into the day, my stocks are wild. Those three seems to rock back and forth, and today I got hammered. I mean last tuesday I was down 24k in SOLF alone but I had 16k up in RCH and Tasr. SOLF recovered half the loss and then today all 3 took a shit haha.

I have limit orders on both Tasr and RCH which should both rebound and hit them, and SOLF I am gonna keep for the long haul I think.

Keep in mind I have absolutely no clue wtf I am doing I am just guessing on what I have seen and going off those analyst on CNN and MSN. Although I am starting to think these fuckers don't know shit either. I feel like only people who get rich on stocks are lucky ones and people with inside knowledge. I even tried watching Bloomberg for a day but they don't help, they just tell you your stock sucks today, or "oh hey if you bought this stock last week you would have made a killing" fuckers.

Millie · 12-11-2007, 03:27 PM

The big secret is that no one knows shit. There are only people who are very highly paid to think they know shit.

Usha Starchild · 12-11-2007, 04:58 PM

Holy shit did the whole stock market take a shit today or something?

Ortega · 12-11-2007, 04:59 PM

LOL I set stops in my real portfolio, but totally spaced this one... GG for that, I knew the fed was going to disappoint with their rate cut.

Millie · 12-11-2007, 05:45 PM

I had a bunch of stops in my portfolio for this game, but unfortunately, I set the stops too low. Oh well. At least I didn't incur any real losses. All I did was see my gains cut in half. Not the end of the world, I suppose.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't be surprised at all if that guy who made 15% on day one -- then sold everything, and has remained 100% in cash ever since -- wins the competition. By the end of this run, the best of us will be lucky to have made 15%.
