A whole business cycle of zero percent rates.
Not one interest rate rise in 7 years. Just a load of talk. And yet they can keep every trader in the world fooled.
"In june, but don't get the idea we will raise.. its data dependant"
"in sept"
"no oct. "
"definitely December"
What does this say about the world.
I've noticed that a few sites differ in terms of the EPS ratio they give. For example : Google. Some are closer than others
EPS:: 23.69
EPS:: 21.32
EPS :: 21.61
http://ift.tt/PEAcaG EPS 21.32
Wondering which is the more reliable, because with other stocks they can vary greatly :\
About a month ago, I posted a tool which shows RSI, PEG Ratio, Earnings Date, and other stock stats all on one screen for all the stocks of one's choosing. Its motivation came from not having all the data I want to see on one screen. The closest I ever found to something like this was on finviz.com, but to do some more advanced things, such as exporting, you have to subscribe.
I got feedback from users here for adding export functionality, coloring for values, and waiting indicators. I've added these features and hope to hear more from the community on what they think could further improve the tool.
Feel free to try the app and let me know what you guys think. You enter comma separated tickers and simply click the search button, and after some time the results will appear. http://ift.tt/1PWLCEh You can also try the CLI if that's more to your taste.
Im completely new to the world of the stock market; and out of curiosity - what would happen if you bought out all of a company's shares?
For example; ScripsAmerica Inc only has 82,000 shares for $0.0209 each, it would only cost $1640 to buy out all the shares (not that Im planning on investing). What would happen to the stock?
Don't Want to miss this week's Watch List daytraderockstar post posted by daytraderockstar Oct 30, 2015 8:40 pm
This past week was awesome and I feel this week's picks are just as great if not better. A lot of the positions have been entered over the last couple days As i been talking about a lot of these stocks on the air and sending out the trade alerts. But i have some nice surprises and I feel the list is one of the great ones.
The Divergences are now becoming my goto set up. This is across both stocks and futures. Also because of the divergences these tend to move farther then the underlying pattern suggests. Things are good.
Most of my thoughts are on the video so it saves me some typing here. I go over some great examples of what we all need to be looking for. This video is important as they all are. and the Kick Ass Trade is out also
Every Friday I am off the Microphone and researching for the next week's watch list and trade setups. This takes me all day and into the night to complete and chart out and to finally get it out to all the members of http://ift.tt/1bdJIdh. Also during this time i am able to focus on my es trading which is harder when i am trying to broadcast and run the show. Each week I have been sending out some of this work on the emini. Discussing the setups, and HPS zones and if I see a trade I will take it. I would like the make this more of a weekly feature along with HPS watchlist. I will use this series to strictly point out every Ram in the Bush I can see happening on Friday and trade them. I will also do my best to discuss other HPS area's but not necessarily take them all as a trade. The Ram in the Bush in my opinion is to good not to pay attention to even if you don't trade this method.
So this is Video 1 of the series: I didn't record it like I was going to do this series so it is kinda raw and jumpy the next episodes will be produced better.
The Video is not edited My first trade actually got stopped out but I can see the set up and the set up was just a small running divergence. I got back in and got the trade then got pretty distracted and like I said its pretty raw. But it has a lot of core rules of trading the futures for myself and I was able to I hope get them across to you.

Newbie trader here. Can I get some opinions or reviews of the platforms you guys use and can recommend? Or any warnings from platforms you may have used in the past? Thanks!
Any websites available??
I'm reading Stan Weinstein's Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets now. It's an older book, but there's a lot of good stuff in it.
Are there any other good resources for learning technical analysis? maybe something a little more up to date?
I've bought and sold twice now for an avg. of 13 percent gain. Debating going long on it, but I feel like once they're out of the media, share prices will drop back. Your thoughts?
Is there a site that has a broad way of saying if the majority of stocks went over or under their projected earnings?
thoughts?
Seems to be getting a lot of buy ratings recently, I was under the impression Apple weren't getting the numbers needed in China?
Plus the fact its dropped today from 119 to 115, what's everyones thoughts/positions?
I saw on the news that they use very cheap food, and don't even salt their pots. And I noticed that week their stocks went up 4 points. Not to mention after that their stocks went up by like 200% over the next few months.
After seeing this news, I never would eat there again. How could this happen??
After many tireless nights at figuring out what I want to do for a career, I feel like I found my niche.
I want to trade stocks for a living.
I am trying to learn all I can about cultivating a strategy and have been researching all types of methods (RSI, Coppock curve, OBV, Stochastic, etc...)
Although it's only been for 2 months, my current trading stats are as follows:
-Total transactions = 23 -Average % return per trade = 1.43% -Average length stock held = 2.84 days -Trade gain = 73.6% | Trade loss = 26.4%
My stats look good I think but I feel like I am flying by the seat of my pants and guessing way too much.
I am organized, committed and looking to be a sponge if anyone is willing to teach.
Hey guys, I recently started working for simmons bank so I decided to check out their stock. What do you guys think?
I've been recently thing about the stock market and making trades. Unfortunately this is something I'm not well versed in.

China announced it has cut not only its 1 year lending rate and 1 year deposit rate by 25 bps, but also its reserve requirement ratio by 50 bps.
The PBOC's statement in its google-translated entirety:
People's Bank of China, from October 24, 2015, down financial institutions RMB benchmark lending and deposit interest rates, in order to further reduce the social cost of financing. Among them, one-year benchmark lending rate by 0.25 percentage point to 4.35%; year benchmark deposit rate by 0.25 percentage point to 1.5%; adjusted for each other grade benchmark interest rate loans and deposits, the People's Bank lending rates of financial institutions ; personal housing accumulation fund loan interest rates remain unchanged. Meanwhile, commercial banks and rural cooperative financial institutions are no longer set the upper limit of the floating interest rates on deposits, and pay close attention to improve the market-oriented interest rate formation and regulation mechanism, strengthen the central bank interest rate system of regulation and supervision, improve the efficiency of monetary policy transmission.
Since the same date, down financial institutions RMB deposit reserve ratio by 0.5 percentage points, in order to maintain reasonably adequate liquidity in the banking system, guide steady moderate growth of money and credit. Meanwhile, to increase financial support for the "three rural" and small businesses a positive incentive for additional standards-compliant financial institutions to reduce the deposit reserve ratio by 0.5 percentage points.

Hello I'm new to the stock market and stocks and investing, and I'm trying to learn.
Thanks for your time.
Maybe a dumb question, but I was just curious.
I was wondering with Google's market value jumping of 30% in July and 20% in the past year if that was a historical increase or not.
The quotes are the same in real life and everything is like the real market its just not real money. I am day trading NOT investing, i.e. only keeping the stocks for a day or less, then selling.
hi, I couldn't find an answer to this on Google: if a private company is purchasing a subsidiary of a public company, the public company insiders are subject to blackout periods if they are aware of material news. but if definitive deal was reached, could the private company continue to purchase the public company's securities on the open market after they became aware the deal was finalized? Or are they subject to the same sort of blackout periods? Does anyone know if this is true in general, or specifically in Canada? TIA
Went on a little spending spree, hope I found the floor! I read that some tesla insider dumped 10,000 shares at $218 (he still holds $29Million more). Wonder if that's the rug that got pulled?
I only post this because I know a bunch of other posters here follow TSLA closely.

Hey guys/gals. Can anyone provide me with a way to search ETFs by volume? Specifically I'm wondering if there are any other ETFs out there with a similar or better combination of volume and volatility as the UWTI/DWTI and NUGT/DUST funds provide. Are those two funds the very best in that sense?
I'm interesting this question because it is the worst percentage drop of its market cap since 2012. Morgan Stanley reported earnings of $740 million, or $0.34 per share, down from $1.3 billion, or $0.64 per share delivered a year ago. Revenue also fell to $7.332 billion. I searched around the internet for answer (including social networks and financial news aggregators like http://ift.tt/1PwvDMP ) but the answer is "bad financial management". Could you specify this idea or provide me with more relevant one?
I am currently in college and would like to learn about the stock market. I just don't know where to start, I know a little bit about how the stock market works i just don't know what website to use and basically how to buy stocks. I would appreciate if someone could give me a little guidance.
I've seen target prices as high as $140. Is this still a buy? Any idea why it's gone from $114 to the $80's and now going back up?
Can we get it going again?
well this day was well before my time, but i'm interested to know if we have any redditor(s) on this sub who was around following the markets during that time and remembers this day? really curious to hear your stories on here!
for those interested to sorta relive that day again, here was a thread (w/ videos & charts) that i had created last year dedicated for that day -
anyway, i just thought a quick acknowledgement of arugably the largest market decline in history was needed on this sub ... happy anniv. lol
There was an unusually low amount of Insider & Director sales Purchases this past week. In effect a buyers strike. An ominous sign...
Check out the LAST section (the lowest in a long time)
If Insiders don't want to buy their own stock (at THIS point in time), why should you?!
The 'Efficient Market hypothesis' (EMH) was probably developed around the 1860s in france, its basic law can be summarised like this: "The share price of an entity reflects the true value. It's a sort of intrinsic value". This is often misunderstood as the liquidation value divided by the number of shares issued. It actually means the total value including non-quantifiable attributes such as the perceived value and the potential value(s) of future and current products.
The efficient market theory is often dismissed by traders because the mechanisms of buying dips and shorting peaks is seen as the only active "blunting" in the charts. (Blunting is the process of reversal or correction of a sharp trend once market sentiment shifts). Remember: EMH isn't a result of trader sentiment or arbitrary trend it's the theory which explains it.
In application the efficient market theory explains why speculation doesn't go on rampant for months or years, at some point in a trend the market will realise the price is straying too far from the 'true price' and will bet the other way (or at least close out, effectively betting the other way). When you're trading there's no real way to profit from this knowledge but keep in mind that if a company can stay solvent through a downward spin its general tendency is to return to the efficient price. If a company such as VW flogs off assets and cuts back to respond to poor market opinions this is effect the efficient price because the overall value of the company has declined along with the perceived value. This means when the price returns to the EM price it will be lower than it was before. If VW remains solvent through the tough times without compensating (which in general is impossible) its a good bet to assume the price will, within a reasonable timeframe, return to the EM price. This is why good research is vital! I know too many traders who assume that if the share price is down the intrinsic value of the company is too. Because there is no metric for 'EM price relative' (Let's call that X≦EPR. 'X' being the current market price as a result of trend and EPR being 'Efficient Price Relative) its impossible to make a good estimate as to the true EM price without some calls and emails.
To find out if 'X≦EPR' is true of the stock you're interested in build a profile of the current corporate climate by looking at recent news/leaks or anything that will give you an idea as to the response of the company at the time of 'X'
I appreciate most of you here trade equity options, generally considered to involve a lot less research and a lot more fundamental analysis - But this is a vital concept to grasp of you hope to get a good idea of what the macro market is doing. EMH applies to the consolidated stock price on any one index (as well as, to some extent, every index).
I hope this didn't get too complex for you to follow, i'd prefer to describe it all with some juicy mathematical formula but that feeling, I think you'll agree, is a #justhedgefundthing.

So I am new to trading, so forgive my ignorance.
I work at Starbucks and we get stock granted to us every year. I have 9 shares that will vest in a month and I am thinking of investing them in AMD.
AMD manufactures computer components (gpu and cpus) and has been doing poorly in recent years, especially on its CPU line. Their competitor, Intel, has dominated them as far as CPUs go. AMD sits anywhere from 1.60-2.00 and has been going down for years.
I'm thinking of taking my 9 shares in SBUX and using those to purchase AMD on the grounds that either their new line of GPUs coming out will raise the price, or, similar to Apple and Microsoft in the 90s, Intel will buy non voting shares of AMD to reinvigorate the competition.
Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Ok so here's the deal: some of you know me, I run Greenbar Trading and trade for a living and post my watchlists here occasionally. I also am the creator of /r/1krobinhoodproject where I've been posting public trades with full disclosure since March and swing trading a small 1k account just to demonstrate what profitable trading is like. That account is up about 30% since I opened it while the s&p is negative. That's cause I've been trading for 10+ years (mostly swing trading on the side of a full time job) but since 2013 I've been successfully trading full time (obviously with a bigger account than the Robinhood one lol). So needless to say I have a good amount of experience and a proven track record and have become pretty savvy with helping people grow small accounts and get started in trading.
Now the fun part! I run a small private chat room (on Slack) for people that I mentor privately in "all things stocky" and I'm going to open up a public chat either tonight or tomorrow and spend a couple hours just doing an AmA kinda thing and answering questions live for people. Nothing super formal, just come in and ask any questions you want about charts, how to get started in the market, books to read, how to open an account, how to pick good stocks, fundamental and/or technical analysis, trading, investing, day trading, whatever. There are no stupid questions and all experience levels are welcome. I'll answer them live and we can have live discussion about them. No delays waiting for responses or any of that. If it goes well we can make it a weekly thing or something as long as I have time. Then afterwards maybe I can post a link to the logs or something for people who missed it.
Any takers? Would you guys be interested in this? If so I'll set it up and edit this post to provide the link and the start time. I've done stuff like this before on tickertv and it was really successful but now tickertv has shut down so I'm gonna open up a new avenue.
Anyway let me know if you'd find this useful and if so let's do it tonight like 8pm est or so!
No statistics to prove that that futures and forex are more popular than stocks for short-term trading. But talking to people into this business, I do find that futures and forex are more popular for short-term trading. If yes, why so? I am puzzled why futures and forex given the limited choices. There are thousands of stocks but much fewer futures and currencies. Wouldn't there be fewer trading opportunities in futures and currencies as a result?
2 things:
1) Does anyone know if there is a way to have excel automatically pull stock prices and refresh itself everyday? I can import a table of historical prices but I'm not sure if it can update itself.
2) Is there a specific way to look at a stock and find the day with its largest open and close difference? Cant tell from just the graphs. I need an easier way compared to sifting through 10 years of prices.
Thanks in Advance

Check out all the recent insider trades on BCM. http://ift.tt/1RcrGKG
This is the article that really got me to commit a fair bit of my stock portfolio to this mining company. http://ift.tt/1N1km6y
That and some seasoned investors/geologists in Vancouver I know in the mining industry have been plowing significant portions of their portfolios in as well.
The other deciding factor was when I learned that the law firm representing BCM on Santa Ana Vs. Govt Of Peru is doing it primarily on a commission basis.
Definitely holding on till arbitration closes on this one which is at least another year.
Venture Capitalists - is it true that your approach has been to fund only white men and, if so, does that mean you trust white men more with your money? Why is it only that the white men get funded by venture capitalists?
Hey /r/StockMarket,
Just wondering what sort of apps you guys run on mobile to keep on top of things when you're away from your computer. I'm using MT5 at the moment but I'm getting sick of it.
hello i just bought triforce trader and few trading courses message me if you need any course
Long story if you are lazy scroll down to THE ACTUAL;)
So heres the story: I participate in a so called stock market game which takes place in whole germany. You get virtual 50.000€ and you invest them on real stock market prices. In 11 weeks you have to make as much profit as possible .the best team (we are 3 pepole our team is called wolves of wallstreet) will get 1500€ the 2th 1000 the 3rd 500 So if you read this, thank you for spending your time reading.
THE ACTUAL question is how should we invest thoose 50k in the next 11 weeks to get the most profit. Thanks in advice for tips :)
I would like to be able to understand how the price is determined (the one we see in yahoo finance for instance), the level 1 level 2 thing, if it is possible to access the buy and sell orders individually and maybe get the identity of the owner of that order, how does the high frequency trading work... Are there good books on that subject ?
I was scrolling through my Mach app and saw that EBay dropped by almost 75% in July. Is this from a company split or something? If you are a shareholder are you just boned out of 75% of your money or does this work differently?

I'm currently in school studying IT. I recently got into stocks and am learning the ways. VMW is down about $10, you guys think it'll bounce back? I'd like to invest in more tech stock rather than the Pharmaceuticals I've been doing with a mentor that only knows about those.
Hey there Traders of Reddit! For about a week now I've been looking into Ichimoku clouds, and so far I'm really enjoying it. However, I am still debating whether I should add this indicator into my trading strategy. So, what is your experience with the cloud? Particularly on a intraday time frame! Are they better off suited for finding reversals or for trend continuation?
Thanks!
FCAU went down from around 14.50 to low 12 after the VW scandal, but since has recovered to 15.90 after hours on friday. I made some money on this and I don't want to get greedy, but it seems as though it is at its peak and should be going down. There is no catalyst for this however, Ferrari stock pricing and exo date should be released soon, and earning report comes out at the end of the month.
My grandfather and I are in the final process of opening an online trading account to, in the end, buy and sell stocks. He wants the best for me, so he insisted on doing this for me as a way of learning this business at a young age, and possibly making something good out of it. (a career?) On the same note, I'm also super motivated to learn and do everything I could to make money off stocks, but I need some initial guidance. I know I'll be starting super small, but this is just stepping stones to hopefully bigger and more success in the future. Does anyone have any tips or websites I could be linked to that could really help me out? Thanks for any comments in advance.
does anyone remember it?
there are a few youtube videos that i had created and put up in that thread as well...
what a crazy trading day that was!
fwiw- that day had been the largest single-day point range in the djia's history up until aug. 24th of this year...
i had never seen swings in the markets in a single-day quite like that day! it was just breathtaking to say the least...
Would hooking to a hotel room in New York City or Chicago good enough to give me an idea of what a good connection is and how I perform ?
I wish I didn't put all the current market conditions on this video cause the other information is more important and I want people to understand the value of using a method to trade in this case the HPS. Trading is hard because we have to deal with emotions. Emotions ruin any chance we have on applying a technique in the market based off of statistics and or technical analysis. What I have done over 10 years of strategy building and 20 years of market trading is identify what is definitely unreliable, What is reliable and what is highly probable. There are many techniques out there, 1000's of indicators and not to mention algorithms and trading programs. You have to find your way in a market that can move on a dime do to a false news release or rumor. There is not much you can do in some situations but the majority of the time you can profit as long as you stick to a proven strategy and try your hardest to keep the emotional trading in check. If you know our community and our methods then you are on the right path. I am so confident when i say our divergence set up's and stochastic combo's that build our trading playbook are the best chance to trade today's markets. This Video again goes into the core of HPS there are 3 text book examples that we trade. I hope it complements your strategy and see you in the markets

I have no idea what I'm doing. I have a friend who does it regularly and is teaching me. I just ordered a couple books off amazon to learn. In general does it take skill to invest and make money or is it just basic knowledge and then a matter of luck? I have $10,000 I want to invest.
If so, what are your favorites and how are they applied (price action, indicator, etc.)
Your thoughts?
I read the following article... is there something I'm not following? Why in the world is the S&P 500 at these levels right now? Shits going to hit the fan, really soon & real fast.
Long story short, I started a company with a phD student whose thesis centered on studying the efficacy of using sentiment/linguistic analysis as a method of mitigating risk and building trust in the sharing economy. The algorithm and API we developed worked quite well and even got patented.
However, we acted on a hunch and augmented the technology to measure sentiment on particular stocks across Twitter. My question is: is this a feature that is currently used - or would be valuable - to the finance industry? Either day traders, financial institutions, or maybe hedge funds?
So I live in Montreal, Canada and am on the verge of beginning to trade and one of my biggest questions to which I have yet to obtain an answer from is if there are taxes on stock gains? Do you keep all of the profits (minus commission obviously) you make off a trade? If no, are taxes applicable once you withdraw the money from you portfolio? What if you use a TFSA? I ask because I have understood that in London (I believe) 100% of the money you make, you keep thus making 100k in the stock market is more in the end rather than making 100k in a taxable job.
