Why the f**k did you gamble so much on a stock you didn't know much about...

In his defence, that shit can happen to any investor on a bad day with decent capital, knowledge or not

It's only the inverse of success stories. The alternative outcome would have him asking himself why he didn't put more into it!

talking to someone last night and they mentioned that some companies pay people on Hot Copper to talk it up. and other inside trading shenanigans. and the annual report says the MD has 67mil shares given to him as options. the other directors are on decent money, but mostly made of options, so if price doubles (eg, 2c to 4c) their wage essentially doubles.

 

Also, saw a ford XRT ute 4WD drive thing on the monash yesterday. bullbar, muddflaps, 20' antennas, numberplate: IWNTVB

Decided to hold a day trade over night then was stuck on a plane next morning. 

I do more short-medium term investing these days haha

And yes didn't put a stop loss on it :(

Sigh. We have been through this. That means you only get 2c

It's penny stocks m12

This seemed quite obvious I would have thought

Companies do all kinds of shit and get away with it. ASX is a toothless tiger. There are paid downrampers on hotcopper too. A couple of guys on the 88E forum who spend all day shitcanning the share but never invest in it and you have to wonder why they do that...either bored trolls or it's their job. Doesn't make that much difference though; the market makers have way more influence than HC will ever have on a share price. Evidence of this is a lot of the posts on HC are asking why this and that occurred, lamenting an unforeseen price drop etc. It's rarely introspective discussion of trading behaviour.

in my head hot copper was like reddit for Financial Review subscribers. ...except no one makes money off reddit.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
