i think ig index do not let people short aim stocks/ small companies. so the only way a shorter has a great chance is in a big bad bear market on aim for example. however ig will let you go long on aim in a bear market so you can lose money. shorting at the wrong time is very dangerous. i once saw a stock get suspended for a year at around 2p. it came out of suspension at 30p and they could still not close the shorts. ended up 50p on the day. shorters were ruined. they thought it was going bust.
it is like a family on here. chaebol , the shorter. poorinvester always bullish even in a 99percent drop. donotpanic the village idiot on here. lol. anyway looks like good times ahead folks and that is all what counts. could be plenty of good trades in the next 2 years.
yep. throw a dart at any of them. mara, riot, clsk, arb etc. until the music stops they will all go up. and they will all go down together when the music stops. by then we all will have done well.
bullish indeed. this could of caught people out not in or sold thinking arb pulled back a bit and did not move up much in the early stage of bitcoin rise since that silly selling from the news. next week this could move to 18p and then profit taking. if it remains so bullish then 20p could hit and then if it stays above that on the way to around 37p. arb also moves so fast. a 50 percent gain in a day is par for course when this thing starts moving. so yes folks. you could make good money in the next week or 2. nice.
a big following usually means they con the gullible into believing they are good. timing is everything and not getting really greedy. so a person needs to be in control in what they are doing in this game. they need to control there own mindset and risk levels. not have some shark telling them now is the time.
being in early in the bull run is great. but the biggest money of all is not early on. the trick is near to the top. who will survive. who will panic. who willbuy on big spikes. who will be around in 39 months from now loaded with cah and profits. of course at that time there will be a new poorinvester. poorinvester 2 buying at the top and all the way down. the original poorinvester will be gone. so do you feel lucky punk.
playing the blockchain mining/bitcoin card at the moment. i have not sold a bean in seed. still got all my shares. just waiting for news which will take some time.
if for example mara goes up faster when bitcoin rises it will drop faster as seen yesterday. and there will be big drops along the way over the next 2 years to hopefully fortunes made by playing the game correctly. you will not get your cake and eat it with mara. it is therefore a mixed bag with mara because of the bigger drops. maybe 3 or 4 miners to end up with including arb and mara. i am currently in 2 miners. they will all go up anyway.
it still stands as 18p and a bit of profit taking. over 20p and a ride up to 37p and then big profit taking halving share price. still on course for the time being.
today showed if on a worthwhile profit take it. you can always buy back in. it also shows keep your powder dry . different times will create opportunities but you will need safe money at that time. and it also shows do not have everything in the miners. they will all go down on a day like this but some will be worse drops. so have at least one stock not connected in anyway to bitcoin etc. that way you cover everything. and if a fortune is made at some point in a year or so your well placed to benefit from it but will be okay anyway.
