    Shall we just concede to RobM ?

    Since April 1st of last year the Dow and S&P are up 50%, and the Nasdaq is up 75%.

    My etrade account is up 100%, but only because I was all cash during the March Covid crash of last year.
    I got back in about two weeks too early. I made the mistake of buying in a five day span instead of buying over two weeks.

    I'm not sure if it's better to buy slower on the way down (meaning one month instead of five days), and then if it does bottom, buy on the way back up, or just to buy slowly over 5 days when you think the bottom is in and just wait.

    Still think it's better to buy little by little over two weeks to one month, but I guess I'm not patient enough.

    I'll tell you one thing, I have no idea which way this market is heading right now. It looks like a stock pickers market, meaning no forward or downward direction over 20%, and just individual stocks moving 10-50% lower or higher as the overall market sways back and forth.

    I've never done so much swing trading in my life right now, while keeping my core positions.

    Yup, it seems that everyone is a Keynesian-driven market speculator in this type of environment. Remember the stories from the 1920s - when shoeshine boys were giving stock market advice? Just remember that we don't get to know what goes on behind the scenes, and be prudent in your trading.

    Contrary to popular belief, shoe shine boys on 1920 Wall St. were probably one of the best sources for unpaid stock tips. Just think of all the discussions overheard while their cigar smoking customers chatted among themselves.

    It didn't work out so well, however. Leverage can be a real problem in more cases than not.

    Well this shoeshine boy believes GNUS is a good long term speculative play for anyone who's interested. Probably a little
    more safe than CWRK, but I still like both of them long term.

    Keep in mind that a crypto currency that sells for pennies is not the same thing as a penny stock (trades OTC and/or trades at a price that is far below where it was originally offered, typically with some stigma attached). Little Doge-ie has an $8B market cap which is higher than most of the leading stocks in the contest. Doge was around $700M on Dec 31 2020. That's still bigger than lots of non-penny exchange listed stocks. If we priced Bitcoin in Satoshis, it would be $0.06 per "share". WOW. :)

    My math tells me that no matter what anyone picked, only one would be on top. :D

    Goin' SOLO has a ring to it, now. Doesn't it ? So low , I bought more.

    Speaking of crypto craze.

    A customer wanted to trade his Bitcoin for 24 ounces of gold and while I wanted to, the Mrs. had strong apprehensions and so....

    So he used it online (he got for $150 in 2013 ) and flipped it for 400$ fV in WLHs plus 220 tenth ounce gold eagles and maple leafs .

    Crazy as it sounds he got approx $52000. In silver and gold for $150.

    This the only picture I have of it. Kudos to gainers.

    You would have had three had the snapshot been taken around may 6...

    I take that back, you would have still had two, because @RobM would have actually had a SEVEN figure balance at that time.

    That’s Unreal
