You are the man, OA!

I have a lot of financial goals. My #2 reason I want to have a lot of money(behind taking care of my family) is to be as charitable as you and do this type of thing whenever I want. God bless you.

Her follow on post had the magic word, "work". She was wiping snow off her car in a hurry to "get to work".

The "$200 isn't much but all I have" made it a no brainer.

I do not wish to start a war here. Honestly seeking knowledge.

I have always been biased towards low cost index funds and time in market, specifically as it relates to retirement funds. I'm reading (for the first time) A Random Walk, which is obviously very critical of both technical and fundamental analysis.

Since this is the charts thread, in particular, the book systematically debunks every single technical analysis method, and goes on to explain why past price movements have zero relevance in predicting the future.

What is the scientifically/data supported response to this?


I have limited time to focus daily, so I almost exclusively sell Theta/Vega and actively follow this thread to try to glean some knowledge on more speculative trading. But, after seeing the literal millions of dollars in gains the last few months on various plays, I'm pretty confident it's not all random tea-leaf-reading bull***** There must be some truth to it. I'm going in on the mass-accumulation recommendations, either selling puts or going long shares. Made 7% last week, which is a **** ton for essentially just selling Theta.

Very long time lurker on this thread and have learned a great deal. 2-3 years out from retirement. Don't do options, but have still done very well just trading the picks from this thread. Best thread on TexAgs.
How did you decide what to do and what not to do?
Morning....Many have and I believe you will find it helpful is to first begin with a paper trading account. Platforms like Thinkorswim offer it and its free. You are basically 'trading' with monopoly money until you have personal understanding, knowledge, etc. without putting real money at risk. Would suggest first putting some time into understanding technical analysis so you are not just flying blind. Then paper trade and once you build confidence and can 'see' what is being discussed it won't sound like Greek or feel like we each bought a magic crystal ball at the local witch store. You will know what you can or want to do then.

It will be like drinking through a firehose if you begin trying to implement all the strategies. You don't need to in order to begin. However I believe once you understand the core fundamentals it will click. There are a lot of very sharp, intelligent and proven people on this thread who trade and manage their assets. I am a sponge each day learning from them and a few key others. If I can do it I promise you anyone can.

funny enough, i threw some money at ORRP a few years ago chasing penny stocks, and forgot about it. they changed themselves into ABML i think in 2018.

basically forgot all about it until recently the stock came alive and jumped over $1. now my position is up around 300%. i sold off a little to be net free on the rest so i'm hanging on to see what happens.

Remember when it snowed 10-12 years ago in CS and I threw a snowball at my now wife, Aggie ring went flying through the air clinking through the parking lot.

Named a new CEO about a week ago but that is all I have seen. He was interim CEO and made it formal.

Same here, seems crazy to have run so much just on appointing a CEO though

I'm net free so I'm going to hold and see what we can keep doing here
