For those of us thinking about options, I'd suggest you read up on it first. If you have questions, we might be able to provide some answers. Nothing is difficult to learn once you put your mind to it.

These are my current positions in the market. The tickers are:
SU - Suncor Energy
XOM - Exxon Mobil
DD - DuPont de Nemour
SBUX - Starbucks (Latest entrant) July

I'm long most of the time but i'm a net seller. Be aware that nothing is stable in this market. Between the time of my screenshot and typing this message, the some of the greens have gone to red.

Again, please learn about options before getting into it.

Nice. Which broker do you use?

Well done guys!!! Anyone notice LTRPB? +2,109.57%

I'm pretty new to the market and have been spending my day reading and learning from this forum, Thanks @OakPearl for this initiative. My current dilemma is getting conversant with the stocks on the global market.

For guys in Nigeria, what informs your choice of stock, given the fact that we aren't too conversant with companies there.

I think it closed at $26. I bought the April 17th $30 call 3 days ago. Basically I'm predicting the stock price will end up above $30 before April 17th to turn a profit. So far I'm down 29%, but there's still time for things to turn around in my favor.
They are reporting the first death in the U.S, market may drop like a rock monday.

Moderna finally made all time high after announcing positive phase 1 trials for the Zika vaccine. Stock is up to $37.30, i'm up 52% and I'm closing this position.

A stock that opens at $4.99 and rose to $134 intraday is too volatile. That's a whopping 2585.37%. Only traders can get this right because you'll need to constantly follow the news else, you'll get your hands burnt.

RED lettered Day so far in the market.

Just another day in this season

I would think there was a glitch. TripAdvisor won't be getting any bookings for a few months due to Covid. The market might investigate.

I hold this sentiments too. It most likely was a glitch

no nooo noooooo noonoonoooonooooooo....something went wrong

OakPearl:


Nice to have you here great man.

UW boss

OakPearl:


Keeping it simple, say you bought at $500.00/share; you decide there and then that all you need is $100/share gain on this stock.
It hits $600.00/share and you sell without regretting if it moves to $750 after you have sold.

That's your exit plan executed.

That calls for discipline. The avoidance of greed.

Very true but just so you know, it eventually closed at $34.69, a 577.64% rise. And it's already doing 47.02% after hours. Crazy!!!

It just has to be a glitch because it is too good to be true!

This is just keeping it as simple as it gets by the way.
Swing traders and day traders use thus technique in reverse ways by also determining the extent of loss they are willing to accommodate before selling off.
It's called "stop loss".

Good morning smart investors, has anyone who invested in any dividend-paying US stock via Trove received dividend via the platform?. NRZ is one of my holdings, and they paid dividend yesterday but received none.
Thanks.

Finally joined you @ 2350. Going forward any doom on market this is the only stock I will spend my life savings on

STOCK FOCUS:
ROKU (Yesterday's price $113)

Based purely on technical analysis, this will give a quick returns.
For those who understand technical charts, ROKU is now sitting on a beautiful "Double-Bottom" as shown in the attached chart which is sure to give a good short term return.
I am in.

Sold my Netfllix this morning after reaching their 52 week high @$440. I bought it on Monday @$383.
We are making gradual progress. i want to do a mix of long term stocks (e.g. Apple and Canadian big 6 banks) and short term stocks (e.g. Tesla, Netflix).
I cant do alot of trading in my tax free account not to incur the wrath of the taxman.
Maybe Ill open another account that's taxable just for day to day trading.
