they're based in CO and have their plant in AL.

Classic democratic NIMBYism. Don't see the issue.

You read my mind. These exact 2 tweets are what always resonated with me. He must know something we don't and has performed diligence the average investor has not, so clearly this will be a winner...Time will tell how all of this pans out, but the loss I have taken on this is my fault and a painful lesson learned.

If you dig a little deeper, it's precisely when this guy says he has extra special insider knowledge that screams STAY AWAY. Other examples are CLOV and GOCO. I don't think it's nefarious, but he gets blinded by his "insider" knowledge, and loses objectivity. To make matters worse, he speaks declaratively and with certainty, even using the word guarantee in some of his recommendations. Tell-tale signs of a pump-and-dump. He also has stated that his desire is that he and his followers can get to the point where they can "influence markets" (similar to Gamestop or AMC). Danger!

I wish him well with his enterprise, but everyone should be aware that the free markets win out over time, despite cherry-picked examples of big winners. I think OA is an accomplished trade technician (provides very good advice for building and exiting positions, in general), and sources prospective trades for further study that people wouldn't have discovered for themselves. Other than that, he's just another guy hawking a service for profit (and deftly using TexAgs for free advertising).

I could be wrong, but I think you might be mixing up OA with another poster...I don't recall any of the "guarantees" or "influence markets" claims he made...I do recall another poster doing that...can't remember his handle though...but anywho, I see a declining market really brings out the ugliness on the B&I forum, much like the Miami loss did on the Football forum

I'm not down with the oa dogpile that's going on here, but he's definitely thrown down with some guarantees over the years. Asan to 130 and bigc to 75 are some of the more recent ones

As mentioned above, all bold statements have to be taken with the caveat that oa plays most of his speculative positions using mass accumulation strategies to get net free as quickly as possible. Jumping in the thread or on his twitter and following (his or anybody's) bold statements blindly is reckless and a good way to teach yourself an important lesson. Which is valuable and you should thank him for that

Edit to add that we made a lot of money on clov early on, iirc. I think that one might belong in the winners column

Nope - same guy. And incidentally, I'm not attacking him or being ugly, I'm just trying to open people's eyes toward someone who has called himself a "stock market guru" as his Twitter handle, and a perfect trader with an infallible system on these boards. These kind of statements and identifiers demand a counterpoint from someone.

After I called him out on using "guarantee" and "influencing markets" language, he has straightened up his act the past few years. Good for him, and if people find his advice service helpful and worth the cost, more power to him, and I wish best of luck to his customers!

I'm one of OA's many biggest followers/advocates on his trade advice since the start of this thread and time and time again he has shown that he has every Aggie's best interest and wants all of us to be successful. He has a great win rate when you roll up all the trades that he's mentioned on here from a trade execution standpoint. He has my respect in that he has put himself and his reputation/time out here in public in offering his trade strategies and advice. That said, I empathize with many here that it's frustrating that the high conviction growth plays that he's pinned on these threads have not panned out (yet) and everyone, myself included, lemming' d our way in sinking alot of retirement capital. But do keep in mind, alot of the price action issues that these speculative stocks are dealing with are the result of the current macro market, inflation and high interest rates; just the worst environment for the small cap space. I would consider these as long(er) term trades (a few years out from now) and will take more time than we all expected. All of this is TBD.

This topic comes up every time someone looks at their WWR value and see a loss and many times it's a big loss.

But the fact remains, with <54 mill shares outstanding, we can take it over with a collective $30mill-ish with today's price. Still like the clubhouse idea. Then we could drop their capital lease, own some assets and start charging membership. Cheaper than taking over TA.

Good commentary, and a pretty accurate reading of the current environment. I would disagree a bit on OA's trade vs. accumulate strategy and accurately putting his trade results out there. It seems when a trade fails, it then magically becomes a mass accumulation candidate, and vice versa. A bit too much re-writing of the history for me to be comfortable with his recommendations overall.

Did someone say target $11.20 on CLOV for actioning mass accumulation buys?


Current price = $1.04


Gonna take a lot more "mass accumulation" for this one to pan out.


Congrats to those who got out early...

He doesn't hit 100% on mass accumulation either. But then look at MARA, MGNI, people here made a killing on NIO. I rolled the dice big on WWR, got bit bad. That's my fault. He preaches position sizing over and over again. If anyone bites off more than they can chew it's on them.

I think one thing that is super frustrating for some and myself included is we didn't discover this thread till after WWR went to double digits to get netfree. And have never experienced the NIOs of the world that had mass success. I got in around $5.50 and it's gone down ever since. Sure I made a little on covered calls when I learned what that was but nowhere near to go netfree. Just my 2 cents on where I think some frustrations lie.

I'm just a picayune investor, my entire basis in $WWR is a smidgen under $200. Current market value is ~$101.
For a purely speculative investment, ain't bad compared to some of my others.

Case in point:

Not near as bad as my stupid purchase of $TDOC at ATH of $171.15/sh. Down -89.27% Uggh.

Honestly, kinda getting to the point where I hope someone buys out WWR. They had their chance earlier this year and passed it up. At this point, they seem unable to receive financing to compete the mine, so they best thing going forward would be for them to get bought and maybe we get some value that way.

Well you're definitely not getting a nice room in the clubhouse with numbers like that. You might have to sleep in a tent in the back yard!

The one that perplexed me the most was when he pumped BFT which is now PSFE. Said to load up in 401k/Ira and park it. Still, it is certainly my fault for believing that and not doing it with the right size investment.
I'm trying to stick more with companies I know more about now.

My $0.02, coming from a random guy on the internet you've never met...don't throw money at trades recommended by random guys on the internet you've never met. It doesn't matter if they have an AgTag, 12th Man, whatever...Unless you've met that person and can vouch for their legitimacy, you're just gambling on the trade and their motives. And if these people can't or won't produce a statement or proof of the trades that they're screaming about, then beware. They're probably selling while you're buying.

But, if you have the risk tolerance to throw a few bucks into a speculative gamble, have at it. I just wouldn't put more than 1% of my portfolio into any single random internet pick...

Looking for beaten-down trading/investing opportunities. My rough screening guidelines are companies with a significant market share, roughly at or near positive profitability, and no glaring issues on the near-term horizon. Not all are perfect matches for these filters, but here's a starter list:

LUMN
GENI
BRDS
AUR
NCLH

Reactions to these, or suggestions to add/replace from this list?

Beer candle reversal on SPX is looking like it could be happening. Today's indecision if it holds (can't have a new low before close) can turn into an uptrend starting either tomorrow or Monday. It doesn't usually immediately rocket. Takes a little upward choppiness and holding higher lows before buyers stop freaking and force the sellers to cover. But we should see upward confirmation and strong uptrend forming within 10-14 days of the bottom. It is a little more round of a bottom than I usually like. But with that being your stop and a target of previous ATH, there's some money to be made here with minimal risk with a stop so quick under your feet at Tuesday's low.

I agree. Over sold.

CONSIDER THIS

If you have shares in a Traditional IRA that you want to convert to a Roth IRA, today might be a good day to make that conversion.

You'll owe tax, but the conversion (transfer) is being completed at a low valuation.
