Please, how do I go about stop loss? Anyone that has indent knowledge should please come to my rescue and give me the steps on passfolio. Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, unlike Trove and T212, Passfolio offers this as a premium/paid service of $10 monthly. Basically, stop loss means you set a specific limit/price below the amount the stock is currently trading. If the price falls to that amount the sell order is automatically triggered to help minimize your loss.

That way you may not need to constantly monitor the price movement. To the best of my knowledge, it is applicable for whole shares not fractional shares.

Good afternoon all, just got to know of this thread today. I have succeeded in opening Passfolio account. How do I create a dorm account in Zenith bank so as to avoid exchange rates?

Between Passfolio and T212 which do you advise I go for?

https://brokerchooser.com/compare/passfolio-vs-trading-212

coolangel54:
I have registered on the two and Passfolio was done seamlessly but my house address is different from that on my statement of account (although they haven't asked for it yet) when I registered on T212 and passport upload is where I got stuck. How do I maneuver this hurdle?


thanks in advance!


For T212: Doesn’t matter where you live currently. What matters is if your address per passport is same as bank statement. Affirmative? Good to go!

This penny stock Zomedica ($ZOM - $0.48 at marker close last friday) would gap up real big before end of this year.
$ZOM has plans to commercialize its point-of-care diagnostic platform "Truforma", which uses patented Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) technology to detect adrenal and thyroid diseases in cats and dogs, on March 30. ZOM's Truforma targets an addressable 'diagnostic' pet market that is project projected to grow above $2.8 billion by 2024.

I started buying last week Friday and would add more. Conservative target on this stock is $3.

As always, due diligence is required before investing in any stock(s).

Bonne chance!!!

You’ve got a good eye for these things. Fortunately for me. I got in at 0.39 and up by over 100% already. Funny thing is the amount I put in so negligible cos that was the maximum I could afford to “lose”

I did NOT even bother watching it. Already knew Style Bender was getting a clean home run on him. I can only be bothered if Style Bender faces Jon Jones. Style Bender is a Monster Killer, Jon Jones is the GOAT Killer.
Monster Killer Vs GOAT Killer, this fight will shake the world. Thank God, they are not in the same weight class, because right now, Jon Jones will KiLL Style Bender grin.

”Be calming down”. If you watched Dominic Reyes and Jones match, you’d agree Jones isn’t invincible if we are being objective and even the Reyes got a good beating tonight.

To anyone new here.. I warn you never use or depend on chaka to trade international stocks especially if you're to monitor and know when to sell, someone here recommended trading 212 but I chose chaka instead, today, I lost $1000, shares I bought at $0.28 (JE). When the stock hit $1000 value, wanted to sell, that was when the app crashed, it refused to function, I went to the web as the value started dropping quickly and still couldn't sell because the glitch was on their website too, when I was able to get through, my share value had dropped to $17. God knows how I feel right now.
Sorry about that, that stuff hurts. I think it’s advisable to always set a Stop Loss for every trade executed MOST ESPECIALLY for volatile stocks such as penny stocks and those with high beta, that way you don’t need to manually sell or constantly worry the swing.

I plan to sell my father's land, liquidate my savings account, take out a loan against my father's house and use my tuition money to buy tesla. I have done my research and I strongly believe tesla will go back to $2500 by Chrismas time. If I can raise N5 million and invest it all in tesla, I should have N25 million by Christmas. I'm about to become the richest person in my family and its all thanks to you people here.

I read this and wondered what could be fueling this excitement that is on steroids. So eager to talk about the anticipated movement and precise time (back to $2,500 before Christmas) but cleverly leaving out the “research”, which hopefully isn’t one of the thousand articles from a random analyst. I just kept saying to myself: Pump and Dump, thankfully you gave yourself away here

rentAcock:

Bro I know how ridiculous it sounds but I think I can pull it off. If more people also think this way, the bubble will keep getting bigger and we will all make profit until the bubble pops.


I’m just worried about other enthusiastic newbies who might be misinformed stumbling upon your post. Bad enough Tesla’s level of volatility would make your post seem plausible. Baba If you dey Wall street, e don be be that o, small change you go even dey pump unquoted equity. Fear God Mr. “I must be the richest in my generation with N25 million”

I use a yahoo account too. I had the same challenge but they resolved it for me. I sent them a mail via cardverification@trading212 .com and they responded with a link that helps me use gpay and other options.
According to their response, they don't allow direct funding with credit/debit cards originating from Nigeria.
Using gpay helps them in verifying your identity.

Thanks a lot!! I was able to fund with gpay much later without having to do anything. I guess it took a while for my chrome browser (which my google suite account is linked) to sync my details with the site. I checked the site after a while and saw the gpay option. Really appreciate you for reaching out ��

Breaking News:
Teladoc ($TDOC) and Livongo ($LVGO) Health to merge in deal valued at $18.5 billion. Based on the terms of the deal, $LVGO shareholders will receive 0.592x shares of $TDOC plus $11.33 in cash per share owned.

Furthermore, while $TDOC shareholders will own about 58% of the combined entity, $LVGO shareholders will own the remaining 42%. The combination "creates a global leader in consumer centered virtual care".

I’ve got positions in both TDOC and LVGO. I’m still trying to discern how this affects me. Good or Bad?

Just a caution here traders.

If you want to withdraw funds from eToro, it's gonna take ages for it to hit your account. I'm currently regretting ever putting money on that platform.

Hi, have your funds settled now? If Yes, how long did it take to settle?

@YerYer or any other person that uses eToro here, I honestly don't understand their app/website, is it only meant for trading because I cannot find the typical BUY/SELL options?

Try out the virtual/demo portfolio to have a good grasp. Meanwhile click on the search icon, enter ticker and click on Trade. Select whichever is applicable BUY/SELL

YerYer:


Absolutely, a little bit of luck plays a role. Imagine you buy high quality stocks today and tomorrow Russia attacks a NATO ally; it's safe to say the market will sell off. These are inherent risks that comes with investing. Long term investors will still have ample time to recover their loss but if it's a speculative trade like the short dated call option, its toast. The most important thing is having a higher win to loss ratio over a long period of time and that's not just pure luck.

I'm glad I slept off Friday morning, it was a bloodbath I didn't want to witness. EBAY, FSLY & DOCU saved me though.

All 3 are solid! FSLY the only green in my portfolio on Friday with FB doing the most damage. Ironically just sold DOCU to buy INO and SPOT. EBAY is crazy tho!! Already achieved 100% YTD already. Definitely getting a slice when next I rebalance my portfolio

Hi All, I have followed this thread from the first page and have gleaned insights on equities et al. Thanks @Oakpearl, @YerYer, and others for this wealth of information. I would like to know if any of the Fintech apps (Trove, Chaka, or Bamboo) offers special orders option (Stop orders and Limit orders) for fractional shares and if any allows withdrawal to a USD domiciliary account at the moment.

Edited: Stop & Limit Orders for fractional shares? - NO for Bamboo & Trove- Only available for whole shares. Can’t say for Chaka

Withdrawal of into a USD acc? YES for Bamboo (you’ll be charged $45 for Wire Transfer fee tho), MOST LIKELY for Trove. I haven’t tried USD withdrawal on Trove just yet, but I believe you can following the logic that you can fund your Trove account with a Dom Account. Can’t say for Chaka

Trove (same pricing model as Chaka) is favorable for the "big" boys i.e. folks whose individual trade whether purchase or sale exceeds $200. The higher of $2 or 1% is not favorable to the fellow who trades individually <$200. Hypothetically, just imagine paying $2 on a purchase of 4$ and another $2 on sale = Capital depleted

Alternatively, Bamboo's flat rate of 1.5% is more pronounced when individual trades exceeds >$200 where the opportunity cost on commission to say Trove or Chaka is 1%. It may appear .5% is insignificant until you start dealing BIG numbers.

At the end of the day, its a NGO business plus money must be made for the venture capitalist and thankfully monopoly is minimal else wetin me wey get $4 for do?

Update:

There are miscalculations in my previous post. I think it is right I correct it in case there are potential investors and traders whose significant deciding factor on which platform to use is the transaction cost. The benchmark should be $133 as against $200 which I earlier quoted. Glancing at my bamboo trade confirmations, I suddenly realized my transaction cost exceed $2 even though they were below $200. I made a table for the sake of clarity

Bamboo makes a lot of money.
Their commission is the highest I’ve seen

I was going to address this but the gentleman below did justice

wamiikechukwu:


They will either charge you 1% or $2 based on which ever is higher...

Trove are for the big boys... People that buy large dollar worth of stocks.

Not for people that buys stocks in fractions...

Just my 2 cents sha...

IMO its all a matter of perspective
