SOFI
this is a shitty looking company, but their are lots of rumors on them getting a big government contract. when you look at some congressional buys and the insiders buying into this thing down already 63%, i pay attention to the baby.
HIGH HIGH RISK
i got in and paid $5.815 per share

I've owned AMGEN about 10 years. It is a total beast of a company. Gross profit margin? Typically above 70%, net margin in excess of 20%. Starting paying dividends in 2012 and have grown the payments exponentially ever since. They basically print money and are committed to paying it out to shareholders. Right up my alley.

for you traders
i have met some unbelievably great day traders. they have an uncanny sense of how to be in front of the big orders before they bang the price.
but now watching the way markets are gapping up and down and holding the gains during the day, makes the life of a day trader that much tougher. it seems to me that the bankers have all ganged up together to screw those great young day traders. just remember as i always point out, the job of the markets are to take the most amount of money away from the most amount of people in the shortest amount of time.
STAY AWAY FROM THOSE RUG PULLS THAT THE BANKERS THROW AT YOU.

oil is the toughest market in the world to trade. i have a friend, Teddy K., that is a great oil trader. we bet $10, he said the price of oil was going to $150, i have $80 going for me. i really don't understand how they can keep the price of that stuff up so high for so long now. it finally looks like its unraveling.

Altria
the CEO had been dumping his shares in this "safe company". all of a sudden the shares are down from $52 to $42 in 2 weeks. today the justice department has banned the sale of JUUL which is owned by Altria.. do you think this CEO what was coming down before they released the news?
I MOST CERTAINLY DO
this high dividend paying stock is in big jeopardy going forward without the national legalization of Maribella.

its very tough to invest in stocks these days. JP Morgan ain't gonna put you into winners.
i am trying to find stocks that have some reason to move on a fundamental side of things. the stocks i have been posting have been pretty good (for now), but you still have to know when to buy and sell them. the main advice i can give you is to make sure you have at least a 3-1 loss to win ratio. so if you still have to find the right entry point. if you are going long on a $10 stock, you have to think that its going to at least $11.50 and if the trade goes against you $9.50 is where you must exit if you picked wrong. i try to buy close to the bottom of a candle and stop out if it breaks that candle. the same in reverse when i go short, i sell at the top of the candle. i also build a trendline knowing that nothing goes in completely straight lines. when the stock bumps against the trendline, i reverse from long to short or short to long. and redo the process over and over again.i look for 4 touches of the trendline, if the equity doesn't bust through on the 4th try i even out the position and go look for something else. the other suggestion i have that is a big one is to know ahead of time how easy or hard it is to borrow shares to short. if it's too easy to find shares to short, chances are the stock will run to the long side.
i got caught yesterday in 3 different rug pulls that were nasty-assed ones. i took a step back and didn't make another trade the rest of the day.
