Strawberri Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 So I've added to my tiny stock portfolio every day since the avatar came out (buying the max 1000 shares for which ever stock happens to be 15NPs per share that day). And already two of my stocks were up to 80 and 88 % increase! Such a great way to make big neopoints. How are your stocks going? Has anyone started buying shares since the avatar and enjoy it?

quit Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I had stocks before I knew about the avatar. I don't really like it, most of the time I don't even remember that I have them. Right now I'm down a total of -27%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazeh Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've also been buying stocks well before the avatar came out. Most of my stocks had a huge increase a few days ago, so I sold those and now I'm left with stocks at 6 and 7 :]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I started expanding my Stocks a few weeks before the avatar came out. I however just had a stock go up to 60 and one more is about to so i will sell them. I am pretty close (26 more days) to getting the avatar. I think i only have one more month left of buying every day 1000 shares at 15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingeevee Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I already had around over 200k invested in the Stock Market before the avatar and still going :) Usually I only sell if it's +100% What's the highest anyone had seen a stock increase?

Strawberri Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 That's a good question... I didn't know they went up to 100%. I might try aiming for that with some of my other stocks :) And are there stocks that always increase? I already had around over 200k invested in the Stock Market before the avatar and still going :) Usually I only sell if it's +100% What's the highest anyone had seen a stock increase?

Batman Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 They go up to far more then 100%. I have one stock now at 280%. I usually sell them at 300%. I know power used to be in the 300+ per stock before. But that was awhile ago. There is no one stock that is always increasing. They all fluctuate similar to the real life stock market but ours never go bankrupt. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridian Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I'm on around 100k in stocks now... I won't look at how much it has gone up or down before I actually reach the avatar :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabala Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I started investing a little over a month ago, so I've got 840,000 np in stocks right now (56k shares). I did sell 2000 shares earlier today, because it hit 60, and I figured I'd rather get the profit and wait a couple more days for the avatar than hold and wait for them to rise again later.

arliona Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I'm so jealous. My stocks haven't gone over 25 NP yet. I've invested 285K so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixensykerd Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've got around 100k in so far, and all my stocks show a loss >:(... However, I have only just understood what "buy low, sell high" means... so that might be the reason :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lepi Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've been buying stocks for a few months. I'm rather confused at this point. When they say you have to have 1m in the market, does that mean you have to SPEND 1m, or that your stocks have to add up to a value of 1m? Seems like I could just buy stocks selling at the most expensive prices so that I wouldn't have to wait forever and a day to get the avatar if it's the former, but if it's the latter then it makes sense to just play the market same as always.

Masaryk Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I started playing the stock market last spring, but forgot about it for most of the summer. Since the avatar came out, I've been remembering to buy my 1000 shares every day. I now have 388,000 neopoints invested, and I expect to have the avatar by Christmas, even if a couple of my stocks go high enough to sell.

Midookami Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I've stopped investing in stocks for a while because I wanted more money in my bank, but I'm buying 1000 shares every day now. Most of my stocks are doing awfully. XD I used to sell at 30 NP per share, but since I want the avatar, I'll hold out for 60 NP before I sell any. I expect to have the avatar in 35 more days. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parisdirt Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Totals: 103,000 1,545,000 1,346,000 -12.88% That is how my portfolio is looking at the moment. Just sold my Yippee stock since it was at my sell number =P Other then that, the market has been real bad lately. ~parisdirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndsie Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Right now my stocks are doing very bad: -41.21%. I have about 200K invested in stocks, although I just earned 63K from one of my stocks :D. I started investing in stocks a few months before the avvie came out. I was just wishing a couple of days before it came out, "I hope TNT makes a Stock Market avvie." I guess they read my mind. :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melnick Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I only had 500 NP invested in the Stock Market before the avatar came out so I probably won't go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they say you have to have 1m in the market, does that mean you have to SPEND 1m, or that your stocks have to add up to a value of 1m? Sadly yes xD At least you're not losing any neopoints unless you sell low...which you shouldn't be doing at all ;) It's like another bank account but that could increase by a lot...happy spending 1 million! xD I'm around 300k now.

Tyler. Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I'm around 1k. I know, I'm lazy XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazycrazykitten Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Well, I just got my avvie for it yesterday, I had been trying to sell off my stocks for a while or else I would have had the avvie quicker. I'm still sitting on that power since it took a dive a few months back, however my BB has went up to 93.3%. Sadly though, not many of my stocks have quick turnover.

Vixensykerd Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 For me I think its a really good investment, not because it makes money back (all my stocks are making a loss), its more just because I buy 15k worth of stocks a day then forget I even have that money. I've got nearly 200k in the bank (which is LOADS for me), but then I look at how much is in the stock market and its 140k! Which is more than I've ever ever had. I know I'll spend the 200k but I'll never spend the 140k, so if anything for me its better than a bank :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassie Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I tried stocks before the avatar and forgot about it. Now I'm adding 1000 shares a day and my port is getting bigger. Its hard not to sell though when you get a great increase though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I've paid a total of 255000, and have a current change of -14.9 % :guiltysmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I have another stock at almost 60. I wish i got these a while ago now that i want the avatar it is just pushing back the date i will get it. Although i am not complaining who wouldn't want to put up 15k and then get 60k in return.

Nyssa Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Just a question... For the avvie, you need to have 1 mil INVESTED, right? The quickest method would be to buy 1k shares each day of the highest stock then, wouldn't it? (Although you probably won't make any profit then). I've been playing the stock market for, about a year now and I love it =). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
