Accumulate and dump?They are running out of juice now?
It's only illegal if the governing body prosecutes. Since the governing body has shown zero interest in protecting anyone but Wall Street and the Market Makers, it's perfectly fine to do these kinds of manipulations.What I am reading are complaints of an apparent and clearly illegal market manipulation.
Far from boring, this was a battle to keep the narrative going that TSLA was bound for <$300. Buyers outweighed the SP smushing and tomorrow could be VERY interesting.Finished the day with GREEN. Longs win!!! But, a boring day
Have to point out the assumption for “sell up, buy down” to work is either you can time the peak perfectly, or you have unlimited capital to work with.Statistically, they will fail more often than they succeed. A random investor is not as "well armed" in this battle as funds with bots.
That's literally the opposite of what I said. I said if you're not buy and hold, you should buy on the way down / sell on the way up - not the opposite. Which is just basic math.
Example. Let's say the stock is $700, goes to $900, and you practice each strategy at $50 increments, starting after it first makes a move (because you're not a bot / MM, you're not going to know the instant it's going to move significantly in one direction, or how far it's going to go).
Buy on the way up / sell on the way down:
Net result: X*(-750-800-850-900+850+800+750+700) = You lose $300 * X, where X is the number of shares you bought/sold at each increment
- $750: Buy X shares ($750*X)
- $800: Buy X shares ($800*X)
- $850: Buy X shares ($850*X)
- $900: Buy X shares ($900*X)
- $850: Sell X shares ($850*X)
- $800: Sell X shares ($800*X)
- $750: Sell X shares ($750*X)
- $700: Sell X shares ($700*X)
Now we invert it: sell on the way up / buy on the way down:
Net result: X*(750+800+850+900-850-800-750-700) = You gain $300 * X, where X is the number of shares you bought/sold at each increment.
- $750: Sell X shares ($750*X)
- $800: Sell X shares ($800*X)
- $850: Sell X shares ($850*X)
- $900: Sell X shares ($900*X)
- $850: Buy X shares ($850*X)
- $800: Buy X shares ($800*X)
- $750: Buy X shares ($750*X)
- $700: Buy X shares ($700*X)
Don't be dumb and bet against basic arithmetic...
There’s a lot of storylines taking place. I think Tesla had been stepping on toes in the past, but ever since we had Larry Fink come out with a statement against investing in fossil fuels and Cramer making remarks that those stocks are dead, Tesla has now threatened to run over entire industries. Or in the short term they are taking the investors money. For short sellers they just happened to have their demise sped up in an insane push forward.Do y’all realize that the top 4 TSLA trading days by volume are all this week. And there have only been 4 days this week so far.
With options breaking Tsla right now, who knows what is going on. I am not getting enough sleep knowing my net worth + - hundreds of thousands per day. Can't wait for this nonsense to stop.
Quote from Jack Ablin, Cresset Capital Chief Investment Officer on video from main Yahoo TSLA page (can't figure out how to copy video link):
"Energy, where perhaps Tesla is the proxy to suggest not only are the auto companies obsolete, perhaps maybe oil-producing countries are too."
[Video title "Tesla's surge is a sign..."]
This raises the question for me, if Musk were to sell his businesses, what would he put the money to? The easy quip is, Mars, but really his businesses are the best means to colonizing Mars. Moreover, a healthy culture and ecosystem here on Earth is absolutely critical to sustaining life on Mars.On paper, Elon has broken into the top 10 of wealthiest people in the world.
And, as he eventually ascends to #1, I wonder how this affects perception of wealth attainment among people globally? Many would call him apart of the traditional "club" but it seems more like he's disrupting the club, as he is doing in multiple industries. His complete dedication to his companies/employees/investors and holding nearly 100% of wealth in stock *he will never sell* as well as consistent noble mission from day one of helping humanity through accelerating sustainable consumption and production of energy, he is unlike anyone in that top 10 today or of yesteryear.
He may as well redefine this too, what it means to obtain the highest prize in individual capitalism (to be wealthiest person on earth) and this is a revolution/disruption unto itself outside the general disruptions created by his companies.
His example to current and future generations is to have a complete dedication to a noble mission to prevent global calamity and ensure future self generating sustainable prosperity. From the meatheads to the delicate introverts. That achieving to highest level of wealth has to be done to improve the globe and think globally of the impact of your ideas on sustainability. The example of having a high personal ethical constitution in pursuing that. Getting serious about these big ideas, being committed to fundamental physics/science of anything you attempt to tackle and build up from there. Communicating pure intention (master plan) to others to build an adaptive, dedicated team, to execute on these pure intentions with this growing team, not succumbing to outside forces attempting to bend that trust built with this team. Chewing that glass while walking into the abyss. Accepting the fact legacy forces will attack you. Believing, the hurricane-like force of integrity around the noble master plan (which disrupts the stagnant, lacking noble integrity economic forces) goes beyond the team and *becomes apart of the broader community.* Over time, people not involved in the team, just average people, will give general support and root for your success, which is not normal for a for-profit company directly because they are taking on these stagnant forces, to improve all our long term human condition directly or indirectly. Profit to them means furthering the cause, not aggrandizing the riches of a few at the expense of the rest, but changing of how we view economic activity for all people globally. It actually turns into a human spirit connecting activity.
As eventually becoming the wealthiest man the planet has ever seen, Elon's example may have dramatic affects on how we see ourselves as a people. For those that say show me the money, they will not look to Gordon Gecko, but to how Elon does it. For those that show me humanity, they will look to Elon for democratizing energy by giving all of us the ability to affordably produce cheap kwhs and use those kwhs to "fuel" or cars and devices to improve our lives at the most fundamental economic levels. It *is* a rebalancing of wealth into the hands of the many from the hands of the few, by putting sustainable energy production and consumption into the hands of the many instead of just the few and its globally applicable. It empowers the individual, while strengthening the human community fabric.
Regardless of how any of use feel about wealth, money, and the current system, Elon at the top of the capitalist power list will fundamentally be better for us all than any of the alternatives in this real politik cut throat world.
Somehow when Andrew issues his opinion on TV, I have seen really huge moves in the stock right after. I don't know how he does it but he seems to be able influence a lot of MMs.
Yes. Started yesterday ends today. Friday, shorts can act as usual.
Tomorrow is going to be very interesting. No more uptick rule, options expiring, etc.
I have hands of diamond on this last 4/17 600C. 70 days until expiration and counting.
Nah, I'm good. I'm not investing to make a 8% return, I have the index funds in my 401k to make sure I don't starve when I'm old. Personally I'm taking a gamble that will result in me retiring on time with a comfortable but sufficient nest egg, or retiring early with more money than I need.I make a plea to those of you who, like me, are retail traders and not pros.
I am a very young retail trader from Italy, this is not financial advice, and you have no reason to believe me.
I know you are going to question my motives. I implore you to believe me that this is seriously done in good faith.
Feel free to dislike this x20, but please at least read my warning.
Heck, right now they could probably shoot somebody in the middle of 5th Street and get away with it.It's only illegal if the governing body prosecutes. Since the governing body has shown zero interest in protecting anyone but Wall Street and the Market Makers, it's perfectly fine to do these kinds of manipulations.
Neither news nor macros support TSLA fade into close. You know who needs to keep TSLA under control until close of options on Friday. It's getting almost predictable.
