So here I have found something exciting in to-day's shock market :

So why do I risk embarrassing myself presenting this ( of which I already have a few thousand shares ) ?

150 institutions own over 107%

the shorts have started covering

last two days (till now) traded over

60 million shares (& there are only 50)

We should never think of money as trivial.

But here eighty bucks buys a thousand shares

- like a lotto ticket that does not expire, etc. etc.

Cheers !

Just want to make it clear that in our cold cruel world EDIT : brutal, I should have added brutal

there is absolutely no reason whatsoever why the

existing shareholders should get any equity

the market can have a ten percent correction at any time;

for no reason at all; it has to decline ten percent first B4

twenty percent, etc.

so it could have a very substantial "fair and orderly decline"

that would be totally non-volatile and NOT a crash -

over an extended period of time...

@ eRroR_6o6 :

a "crash" would be any sharp decline over 10%

and it could go the other way -

we call it a "melt-up"

stk mkt gets most of my study/attention

following Total Market Capitalization :

So far, the expected "Big Flushing" has amounted to NOTHING.

ZPTA has traded over 12 million shares by about noon - Yahoo Finance says they have 29 million shares.

I have 500 shares of ZPTA ( started buying @ $2.55 ).

Viva Zapata !

Margin trading is a more effective way of losing a fortune and going into debt.

That said, I wonder if some of those candlestick charts could be turned into musical scores. It might be worth a try.

I truly believe that if the average Life Enthusiast spent just a minimum amount of time studying,

the stock market would become trivial for most of you. Then you could help me with Program Trading.

$$$Money Solved$$$. Then you could have a lot of hobbies, @ your leisure. I just know you guys can do it.


@ PC

I think all you would need to do is learn how to "Listen to the Music".

As most of you know ( or suspect ), I try to use Mathematics to help me in the Stock Market any way I can.

In Tesla one can see two bear market rally legs up, followed by five waves down.

And that is about all the help I get from MATH - Tesla is ???

mathematically - for me at least...

EDIT :

TSLA reported earnings and revenues that were horrible -

but the stock is surging pre-open; if I was already long,

I would sell into the pop - otherwise just stand aside...
