RyM3rC Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I was feeling damn broke back in 2009, so the broke-ness is starting to wear off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagner Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 What did you expect would happen? If you are not willing to take the risk, don't play the game. I had to do do some trading in class during my undergrad, made me realize the stock market is not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagner Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I was going to pull out this week, but i guess im not now. Well if you alredy took your beating, might as well just ride it out. You always here "buy low well high" and this is a great example. Eat the loss and sell out next time sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmonda Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Whatever you do, don't get disenchanted with stocks and become one of these precious metal buying idiots. Talk about buying high - selling low. If I see one more scam gold commercial I'm going to go nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I usually wait til the Auction house gets flooded with crafted gear. then whisper one of the sellers a decent offer and hope that the outcome is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc1647545523 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I was going to pull out this week, but i guess im not now. Waiting too long to pull out has produced some even more expensive mistakes Be thankful this one just cost a few large. After the tech bubble burst and I lost a fortune, I've been strickly with Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit protection on annuities. It cuts into the profits you see when the market rises, but guarantees you don't lose any principal (plus interest) if the market tanks. I didn't lose a cent when the mortage meltdown happened a few years ago. If you're investing your retirement money (or any money you can't afford to lose), it's the best way to go IMHO. I don't pretend to know alot about the market, but I've found this old cliche to be true: Bulls can make money, Bears can make money, but Pigs always lose.

zeitgeist57 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I shorted the stocks and i am buying in this morning low , hoping to bounce back. My bad...I misread your post. Still...you're broke from options that went south and you somehow bought stocks at a low? If you bought the same stocks, your all-in cost (figuring what you paid for the options + what price you now bought the stocks) is going to be negative: you're never going to amortize the option price out of your stock holding unless you purchased separate equities.

Kevin R. Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 If you lost over 16k in a week you either have over 200k invested or are doing something very, very wrong. Also, but SIRI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
