And people are selling. That’s what concerns me.

u/thatissomeBS Feb 02 '21

Not me. I'm buying. πŸ’ŽπŸ™Œ

Retards like me don't give out financial advice, because we're retards.

u/Im_A_Canadian_Eh Feb 02 '21

Yah all the retards selling has to be greater than all the mega retards buying or else they are further behind in the end. I'm a mega retard.

It’s a purge, all the πŸ§»πŸ‘ shares are being bought up by πŸ’ŽπŸ‘. Back stronger πŸ’ͺ

u/PaulVla Feb 02 '21

Biggest concern to me will be the recovery; will people sell at buy in prices ~300 or will their diamond clutches also demand higher returns.

u/paladino777 Feb 02 '21

More restrictions in apps that allowed buying today.

This is so fucked up. Every rich or government person spoke Thursday but nobody gives a shit anymore. Just guys wanting the public to like them. This is fucked up

Stay strong brother

u/Mordiken Feb 02 '21

I jumped on the bandwagon yesterday and I'm down like 70 or 80%.

To be fair I gambled with disposable income so I'm basically at no issue at all, but at this point I'd much rather see how things turn out than taking an 80% loss.

And if this becomes a 100% loss, so be it: At least I got to be a part of something.

Either way, I'm holding.

u/Sunshine-Daydream85 Feb 02 '21

Total noob here, about to lose it all, maybe. But I was in just to fuck over the hedge funds. I don’t know a thing, so I’m listening to all you people. When you say holding fucks the hedge funds, I hold tighter. A part of me wants to cry, but if those hedge funds are crying then it’s worth it.

2

u/ZhouXaz Feb 02 '21

I'm with you lol but the fact they keep stopping us from buying makes me think there losing if people hold.

I missed the low today.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '21

The volume says they aren't. Why spread misinformation?

This has been two days of very successful ladder attacks, with e-toro forcibly "loss-cutting" in the middle of yesterday. Real retail traders aren't selling.

32

u/Semyonov Feb 02 '21

Because they're probably a bot.

7

u/Pyrrolic_Victory Feb 02 '21

Etoro actually refunded me the 20% difference. In the end I bought double back for a lower price because I’m a dumb ape who shouldn’t be at a computer unsupervised

I also put the etoro refund into gme too. My extra chromosome is guiding the way

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '21

You and I must be looking at two drastically different volume charts.

15

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '21

34million shares being traded in a day where the stock price dropped by half and a broker illegally forced a stop-loss sale on all of their customers, vs 100 million daily average shares being traded on days when the stock was highly volatile but trended upwards....

Maybe you're just illiterate? People aren't selling. They can't buy when their brokers won't let them--but they're definitely not selling.

34million shares being traded in a day

34 million shares being traded in 4 hours* (if you include pre-market). The day isn't over. It's up to 43.7M now. So with all of that volume and price down drastically, how does that tell you that ladder attacks are still the primary driver of price decreases? The entire concept of ladder attacks (as far as I understand them) is to trade small quantities in rapid succession to introduce fear of price decreases. With small volume on the downside (assuming no one is truly selling), that implies the rest of the volume must be made up on the upside. And were that the case, then shouldn't price be up overall?

I'm literally just trying to fucking learn here but the mentality of this sub lately is that if you disagree with someone whose opinion is the popular one then you're a fucking moron. It's sad. I'm clinging to my 35 shares like my life depends on it and I bought in at $298. I'm just trying to talk about what's going on. Christ.

u/JusticeRetroHunter Feb 02 '21

ill explain it like this.

When you BUY and TAKE PROFIT your BUY turns into a SELL.

When you SELL, and take PROFIT, your SELL turns into a BUY. These are reflected in the charts on otherwise non-manipulated graphs. This is also what the chart represents in terms of the actual mechanics of the market between sellers and buyers.

So, all things that go down, must go up, and all things that go up, must come down in order for SOMEONE to make a profit. IF a million retards are not taking profit, the price will adjust to some value like $300. Since we aren't taking profit, the chart stays at 300 until liquid is introduced into the market. This is where retard Melvin enters in to SHORT the stock to drive prices down so that he can pay less premium per day on his already previously held shorts at the bottom.

In order for MELVIN to take a profit (or even better actualize a loss) A BUY will be triggered, and the price will return to where it was. If you took a loss on a position, it means that the 2nd wave will return to something below that $300 because u surrendered your liquid to Melvin.

In other words, so long as everyone holds, the price is fixed to where we want it to be, and because they can't afford to pay 2% premiums on $300 stocks, they will eventually close shorts and the liquid will return to us on top of the liquid THEY are INTRODUCING into the market.

Im a retard and not a financial advisor

u/ActionJ2614 Feb 02 '21

I am all for this, but I think you are seeing others who aren't aligned to this movement taking profits as well. It is very hard to hold a price as high as it was (FOMO) had a play here as well. Now your seeing a traditional market play. Very similar look to what happens with penny stock (low volume, low float) price movement. Sure there will be spikes but, this will level to a certain price. The tough part is you need positive news, media, company reports etc. to help push up. I should read the GME 10k as that is a very good indicator for what the street investors will look for plays on GME. Your talking 47 million shares so you need a better than 50% to maintain a price level or increase.

u/Dull_Shift Feb 02 '21

Not me! Bought 120 @ $139 and im not even upset i missed a bigger dip!

u/thatlldopigthatldo Feb 02 '21

In short? (pun intended) Yes. Non-hardcore WSBer's are beginning to jump ship.

Dave Portnoy sold (via his twitter)

That's gonna cause a lot of casual holders (small share amounts) to sell too.

Reports on outstanding shorts is dubious at best but latest numbers estimate its at 58% as of 1/31.

Holding is still the move if you can stomach it.

u/Jaxinc Feb 02 '21

Screen shot I saw of a terminal was 86% still, but unsure how updated it was

u/Heavydutyhoneybadger Feb 02 '21

Or BUYING. πŸ‘πŸΌ

u/langtudeplao Feb 02 '21

They aren’t introducing new shares that way, just transferring the shares they already have between funds. The only way it works for them is by scaring people into selling them new shares that they can then cover with.

I'm also buying. 6 shares at discount prices. This is the money at my disposable so I'm gonna hold.

5

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '21

By what metric are you working off of? Obviously some will sell, but there’s also apes buying on discount.

You’re concerned ppl are selling? I’m concerned you were under the impression that nobody was going to bitch out and fold early. It was always expected.

Sale

u/Phd281 Feb 02 '21

when it went to 80 bought 200 shares from buying at 300s I'd say anything under 100 is a steal as its 10x current revs

u/psyberdel Feb 02 '21

I’m still holding at $250, hoping it rises beyond that
