I ended up loading up more at the bottom today, it was too enticing. A little scary, but i have a decent hedge of sqqq shares. I really need to hold the rest of my account in cash though, i have a lot tied up in Amazon too.GHG well now I would be less surprised if it hit 44 later haha… i’m going to see where it finds new support before thinking of adding more.

I bought 50 shares, like you said I couldn’t pass up but didn’t want to buy too many in case it keeps falling.
Energy should be bullish most of the year. WTI could be $120-150 this year. Gauranteed hitting $100. Easiest trade out there. Same with 2021.

For oil etfs I have always bought ticker : DBO.
WTI is a western brand of oil commodity. There is Brent and WTI. All Canadian and USA oil stocks trade off of WTI price it directly affects their selling price. My favorite oil stocks are LPI, MRO, CNQ, MEG, and ARX.

Everybody got paid and now retail is slurping the dip.

Keep an eye out for more dips as it’s probably not over.
I wonder how much the market could dip after the fed meeting. Could get really rough but also good opportunities.

This happened to me last year. I thought it was over at the end of January and then late February screwed me over.

Timing the exact moment of recovery is very difficult. Better to be consistent rather than just guessing or you miss out on the jumps.

It's also important to note that jumps can be temporary.
As we saw last week, it only takes half a day to erase a significant amount of money from the market.
If you're investing long term buy at prices that make sense then ignore the daily fluctuations. If you've invested wisely you'll thank yourself in 5-10 years time.

Honestly even swing trading is no big deal if it dips when you don’t expect it… as long as you wouldn’t mind also holding it as a long term trade if it comes to that which is exactly what I do. Usually I can swing it the way I want but not always
Day trading is what I could never do it’s just too nerve wracking for me.

About time. Probably only the second or third big day for me the past 2 months.

I'm not saying you will become a millionaire overnight, or lose all your money. What I am saying is you will be astonished at my lack of legal liability.

That’s a good question. My advice, read and educate yourself as much as possible before buying anything. To me it feels like learning another language.

FAANG singlehandedly holding this market up right now.
To be fair, that's pretty much been the case since September last year so not much has changed in that regard.
20-1 split as well. Their valuation is about to go through the roof.

I was already planning on getting some during the recent dip but it all reversed a tad too quickly. This is what I said a while back and it holds even more true now:
Once the split happens I'll be selling puts at whatever the 2600 equivalent mark is.

Looking at the recent history of splits there tends to be a dip just after the split.
Personally I'm only concerned about the valuation matching up with the stock price rather than the timing of making the purchase (as far as my long term portfolio goes). So if it means waiting a while longer then so be it.
But from a trading perspective, as long as the market doesn't take an almighty dump again at some point for the rest of the week, it's currently looking good on a short term perspective since it's knocking on the door of breaking out to new all time highs.

if its inverse.
since we'll open green cause googl should close red.

Facebook isn't really a "growth" stock. Strong cash flows and steady revenue streams are allowing them to experiment in other areas.
Main reason they are down is because guidance is weak, they see the economy not doing so well over the next couple of years and I'm inclined to agree. That's why the rest of the market is falling on their earnings as well.
They are the first ones (along with PYPL) being accurate with their forward guidance and they are getting punished for it. Hey, maybe they should have done a Apple and just flat out refused to issue any forward guidance just to save their stock in the near term.
That said, I'll be picking some up around these prices.

PayPal at $120 range is a fucking STRONG buy if you have time to hold 5 years or more.. very few companies as stable as that in the Q's.

I’ll be honest, I don’t want anyone here to lose money but I am rooting against facebook and the metaverse idea. It will be very bad for society.

Google is a good bet because of the number of vectors they have. Cloud, mobile, YouTube, search, etc.
They will suffer just like everyone else in the next couple of years (due to inflation and the inevitable economic downturn in order to get it under control) but there's the opportunity to offset it in various business areas.
The issue that Facebook have is that their existing business areas are highly correlated. To make matters worse they are heavily exposed with their investment in the metaverse due to its reliance on hardware manufacturing on their side (supply chains, materials/parts inflation, shipping, etc), and then adoption of said hardware on the consumer side (demand will drop off due to raising interest rates and a possible recession).
They are not the only ones getting involved. By saying that you're essentially rooting against all of big tech. Considering their collective weighting in the major indexes... I wouldn't advise it.

facebook @ $250 is a 17 P/E ratio.
but also going into 2022 mid terms there will probably be a decent amount of political advertising on facebook it just seems like this stock shouldn't be down this much.

My account is down 4% on open.. jesus christ
Facebook has 2.9 billion MAU...
I mean.. are people actually expecting growth of USERS? They already have 40 percent of the fucking planet.
Meta app family is 3.5 billion. Christ.
This Facebook is dying narrative is absurd.
As always... I will keep buying facebook on the bad news.

Facebook market - $190B evaporated over night. Absolute madness. They barely missed. If Amazon misses tonight we are all fucked.
