You didn't have to purchase Google at the IPO to be rich by now. It started trading on the regular market at about $100 and traded there for a couple of weeks, anyone from anywhere in the world could have bought it at that price. Besides, the Google IPO was so well covered by the media, that...

anyone ?

I would like to add ChartingMarkets and lindq to the names of the finest posters on ET.

The post is from yesterday, I can't edit it any more.

The chart in the first post is wrong, so just don't pay attention to it. Could the moderator delete the [img] code from the post, so that no chart is shown, thnx.

OK, since we have more than 100 different threads with over 4,000 posts about Google and its stock... I am wonderin, did anyone had the insight to buy Google around its IPO and hold it to this day for a ...hmmm... 300% gain :)

Well said :)

oddi, I think it is you who is fooled by Randomness :) Here is why... Let's say that 90% of the time in any time frame there is random movement. Whatever system you trade in that time, you will get random results. Even if you don't have a system, you may get the same results. So you may...

FXsKaLpEr, shut up or go to Chit Chat !!!

This was a good thread about speculation and China... now it's about to be ruined :mad:

Why would you want to short it? Do you have technical or fundamental reasons for this?

Hey, even if you lose in every month until year end, that's OK, no big deal, just make sure it's not everything you made in the first six months. Remember that it is a market, it can do whatever it wants to do and surprise you in many more ways than you can expect. You will have many, many...

What exactly is your question about BIDU :confused:

I voted 'down' because I am down for the year (I was in the red for most of the year). It beats me why only 200 voted, it is such a straightforward question... Even if you are down for the last 8 months, so what - we all have at least another 10 years to trade and make those millions :D Anyway...

Couldn't you reduce your position just before the close if you think you should hold overnight? As to your question if you will eventually get caught by bad news, the answer is 'yes'. You must simply accept it. I have accepted the fact that anything can happen in the market at any time...

When Baidu started trading yesterday at 11:40 ET, the thread named "baidu" had 6 posts and only 250 views. I think a lot of people (most people) missed it :)

For me having an edge and being able to make money is the same thing. So the question is how does one make money in the market and why? I think the only way to make money is to take it from someone that is making a mistake. Your job is to find that mistake and use it to your advantage. Keep in...
