    Gonna go for a run, lets see if this repeats itself. C'mon AMC and NOK
    Didn't work on AMC or NOK but the rest of the portfolio is on a tear - Bitcoin, Sea, Square etc all up big.

    Bitcoin might be a big winner out of this actually, the type of place people will put winnings if they can't trade freely.

    It shot up to like 320 or so a while ago but been hovering around the 270 mark for a while now.

    Robinhood is all over the news and twitter. I am sure they will reverse the ban unless they are being paid enough to let the company sink.

    This is absolutely gonna fly once the free market is opened up again. People will be doubling down on the "**** Wall Street" sentiment

    I hope our Bill and PSTH weren't looking to IPO Robinhood, they've essentially just destroyed their company

    Haven't touched a drop since Dec 26th. The cans will be cracked the night I decide to close my position on GME I think!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭dan786


    AMC doing well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭dan786


    KOSS went to $116 at open, dipped to $25 and back now to 44$

    Most of the day trading apps are owned by major financial players, so they've been fighting back dirty by preventing buys and enabling only sells to drive the price down. Highly unethical, but they've probably managed to cover a lot of losses by buying the huge dips.

    Stalling now, afraid of that 300!

    Ok the dust has far from settled yet ha, but where to for the stockmarket now? Also welcome all you new traders. I'm gonna go out on a whim and predict we'll get a nice bounce back and pump across the market as all these new investors all bring even more capital into the stockmarket lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭dan786


    The big gains have been after hours and premarket last few days. Will hold mine till tomorrow. At 3k loss at the moment.


  • Administrators Posts: 56,220 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    What's the chances of the buy ban being lifted?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 50 ✭✭LC134


    I knew this had gone too far when an Arsenal page I follow on Twitter was tweeting about GME, the 2021 equivalent of your taxi driver giving you stock tips.

    Now WSB lingo has made its way into this thread and the markets are starting to behave like crypto markets. This'll all end in tears, and soon.

    It has that crypto feel about it - so much distraction, quick buck to be made, the trading being completely new territory for people, huge pressure on brokerages / platforms with existing or to set up a flurry of new accounts, massive internet coverage etc.

    Hopefully we come out of it with our pants still on.

    Wasn't this the danger with these zero commission brokers like Robinhood?

    They weren't making any money off retail investors so they had to be making their money off someone (hedgefunds/corporate investors).

    Hence they shaft the retail investor.
    Degiro who do apply charges (although small) haven't stopped people buying any shares.

    You dont get anything for free. Am I missing anything here?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭dan786


    etoro have also banned buying in last 30 mins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 134 ✭✭Telo123


    Got back into GME at 250$ stop loss placed at 220$.Already up 400% on the stock. Maybe I'm getting greedy but let's see what happens 290$ exit point

    I'm tempted to go in on GME now and just hold, I don't see the shorts getting covered by tomorrow.

    I'd hope this is the pre moon rocket dip that VW experienced in 2008. I sold at $400 and bought some back in at $130 because I don't think it's over yet. At $400 I suspected it would hold there and I was happy getting out but seeing that bounce. Once the retail traders get back from RH they'll be dumping everything they have into this to burn whatever shorts these guys have left

    Clearly not financial advice and I'm just a dumbass on a forum speculating.

    Do you mean 230 a share? Surely it never went to 130?
