Green LOL

Green LOL
Wow

At some point the train will leave the station

lol... not investment advice... think of it as travel advice

 

[ammulder]

WTF happened this afternoon? No news is good news?

The train is loaded with cars that are all ready sold…

 

[M|S|M MYP]

Pelosi must have bought calls on the low today....

 

[M|S|M MYP]

WTF happened this afternoon? No news is good news?

China production finally leaked out to the MM's.....

 

[betstarship]

wut just happened?

edit: wow

 

[Singuy]

Was that the higher low we were looking for? A reversal from deep red is a sign that institutional investors got in pretty big today at support.

 

[TheTalkingMule]

Hmm same buying at the close as yesterday.
'splain please?

MM's covering their shorting for the day. Maybe hedge funds covering ahead of what they think will be a strongly green Friday heading into a long holiday weekend?

The interest in TSLA didn't really change from the spike to $275 at the open, it was just massaged down on low volume by this guy.

Then he covers any short position in the afternoon. Today he probably lost a few dollars, most days we wins a lot of dollars. He also likely screwed with a lot of options traders by holding the SP down all day.

He pays about 2-11% in federal taxes annually and is the 50th or so richest person in the US. For the above reasons.

Now he's moving his entire operation to Florida so he can be taxed even less.

I thought someone posted conclusive evidence we are supposed sell at 11 o'clock (EDT) and buy an hour before close. Did I get that backwards?

 

[generalenthu]

Looks like this was after markets closed. Were they waiting for a green day (edit: They probably fell asleep to: Wake Me Up When September Comes )??

 

[Featsbeyond50]

wut just happened?

edit: wow

Tesla baby! That's what happened.

 

[elasalle]

nothing happened stock is just up $1.50.
too many loosing days .... I guess ...

I am waiting for 100/3 up days

 

[lascavarian]

Making money in stocks is simply too easy vs. real estate speculation (or, heaven forbid, being landlords), so we sell any property we no longer want to use and invest the money in the market. It's always worked for us, but I encourage everyone to do it their own way.

Can certainly agree! I speak as the worst of landlords and my spouse is nodding in agreement

Great explanation of your investment approach!

AAPL's chart looks identical, as does their AH action. I think this is just MM's unwinding.

No, volume at the Closing Cross yesterday was > 8M shares:

Today's Closing Cross volume was < 1.2M shares:

Yet total volume for these 2 days was within 1.2M shares of eachother, with today having the higher volume.

TL;dr major manipulation by shortzes during the day yesterday, likely most of which was covered at the Closing Cross.

Train to the Hampton's I guess

All right I will admit, I don’t recognize who this is and the picture isn’t copyable - at least I couldn’t copy it to do an image search. If it breaks forum rules just PM me, otherwise the itch is going to drive me crazy.

At least I bought the dip earlier today - the split left me with an odd number that I wanted to roundup. Satisfied a different itch.

And it's more of an exercise in philosophy, consumer behavior, legal analysis and human nature than it is a financial spreadsheet.

Can you guys tell me if this maps/chart is accurate? Some fossil head sent this to me with a comment, "You can clearly see a pattern of coastal elite vs Americana".

I don't think this chart is accurate. This is not ownership density (Teslas/per 1000 citizens), but total Model 3s in a state. I remember seeing another table that had FL & Texas as No. 2 & 3 close to each other.
