craigb Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 anyone use stockmarket that can help me out :O ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittyn Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I do, although I can't say that I'm very good at it. basically, what I do is take about 5k when I feel like it and go buy 100 shares of stock that I like. usually, I buy stock that's closest to the 15NP trading price. then I check every day (sometimes twice a day). so far, nothing has gone high enough that has made me want to sell it. but the stock market is not a quick way to make NP. it takes a lot of patience!

craigb Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 mines wer going high , then dropping really low :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittyn Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 mine too. I've invested almost 19k, but so far my shares are only worth 15k. the Neodaq index (found by clicking on news/research in the stock market) can give you a pretty good idea of how your portfolio is going to look that day. granted, it's an average of ALL the stocks in the market, but still. anyway, just glance it over every day. set a selling goal for yourself! currently, I'm holding all of my stock unless I can make at least a 1k profit from it.

flyingeevee Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 It's good to buy 1,000 shares daily (I haven't used it in a while until I got some profit today) so you'll be investing15,000 nps whenever you buy 1,000 shares. The best thing to do after buying is to play the waiting game. I usually wait until my stocks hit over +300% before selling. It's way more promising in my opinion to wait that long so you can get more out of your nps. I haven't used the stock market in a while but I check daily on the current ones I have. One of my stocks reached over +300% today so from my 15,000 invested, I got 84,000=69,000 nps in profit! If you don't have the avatar for the stock market, my advice is to try investing everyday until you get the avatar and then take a break (unless you want to keep going) and fer sure you'll have some mad profits :laughingsmiley: The stock market takes a long while before any of those stocks reach up that high, but it's worth it.

I may have to raise my selling goal... I'm still gonna only invest 5k at a time though, just because I've got several very expensive dreamie goals!

The best thing to do after buying is to play the waiting game. I usually wait until my stocks hit over +300% before selling. It's way more promising in my opinion to wait that long so you can get more out of your nps. I do exactly the same thing. -------- Today I sold 1000 SHRX shares for 63,000NPS. I'd bought them for 15,000NPS. So I made 48000NPS. So far I've made around 500k profit from the stock market and have about 1.2mil invested in it. The process involves a lot of waiting, but not a lot of effort, which is why it works for me :P Oh and, never sell your shares at a loss. Wait until there's at least a little profit, it's worth it.

Iona Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I can't remember. I buy 1000 shares for 15000NPS almost every day. It does take a lot of waiting, but when you have a lot of different shares, you have a lot of opportunities. I tend to just buy my shares then check if any of my previous shares have reached +300%. If they have, I sell them. If they haven't, I just leave and check again the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iona Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Okay, best of luck :) By the way your word count is a little short in a few of your posts. Try to make sure you have at least 7 words in each of them (forum rules). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iona Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 It pretty much says on that rules page I showed you. Like with any other rule, if you keep repeatedly breaking it knowingly, then there is a chance you could get banned. But you're pretty new here so don't worry. Just try to keep to the rules in future and everything will be okay. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingeevee Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Every stock takes time before they go up that high. I think I've had that stock for months before it got to +300% lolz xD Just as long as you don't mind waiting and remember, it's like a second bank so you're not losing any of those nps unless they go bankrupt (which is VERY VERY rare).

FluffeeBunny Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 While on the subject, does anyone know what times the stocks change prices? I know it happens more than once per 24 hours. Is there a set time like every 12 hours or can it randomly change every hour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
