Stocks & Profits!

How much money have you made off the stock exchange?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

The cost of buying a stock of a particular company is always varying - you'll have to check for yourself! :) You can do so by going to the vault and clicking on "Stock Exchange" on the bottom of the page. :)

after buying Wainright at 73... it went up to 75, then 78, then back down to 77. I sold at 77, knowing that it was going to proceed downward. It's currently sitting at 74. :anxious: \:D/

all the prices I posted above are now out of date. :-s :anxious:

lol... I'm a short term trader... I sell out just before it dips, then buy after it dips, and sell just before the next dip \:D/

that's because I know that it's not just gonna follow our dreams and move anywhere anytime soon. They usually move pretty slow. But they do go up in the long run, usually.... :-k

I'm tempted to sell all 80 of my shares now even though it's be a huge financial loos.......but it'd be devastating if I sold and then it went back up again immediately after.

Peace Out
