They’re trying to trap you. The market always does this before taking a shit on your face. It’s run by sick people, designed to make you poor and divorced. The downside might not even be too bad– but from top to bottom, you’ll go broke if you play it the wrong way.
All you need is to be 200% leveraged at the top of the market and lose 25% on a stock to lose half of everything you have. Then you will get all desperate and shit, sell at the bottom, miss the run up, then buy into another trappy top–leveraged and down another 25%–for the grande fucking finale down to $00.00.
That’s how this shit happens. You can be the smartest fucker in the world and get wiped the fuck out. We’ve all been there, at least those who are crazy enough to trade in such a manner. Most of my clients keep their long term accounts embedded in boring stocks like IBM, KO and KMB. Since that shit is boring, I never talk about it, opting to discuss the aggrerssive portion of my strategy, because you’re all degenerate OTB guys–otherwise you wouldn’t bother surfing the web for stock tips.
You want a fucking tip, some hot stock advice? Stop listening to assholes on the internet about financial matters. First of all, 99% of the people you read online aren’t professionals. They’re self taught and for the most part winging it fucktards with 10 grand in their online Zeeco accounts. That’s not to say they can’t be great–but it’s rare. Also, can everyone please stop using war as an anecdote for investing? That’s the nerdiest shit in the world. One guy is getting his arm blown off by a grenade, the other just lost $553 in a bad WNR trade–hardly a comparative analogy.
PFFFFFFFFFF.
I don’t adhere to traditional rules. I don’t fucking like them. Stop losses at -10%, why? Sometimes a stock is best picked when down, not running higher. I said it once and I’ll say it again: investing is an art. You have to be creative and find ways to make money, some orthodox, others completely insane and risky.
It’s a crazy goat fucker market and as much as I hate it and want to stab it in the face, I will never stop trading it.
