I am sorry that you had to learn the hard way and you lost money! I hate losing money! Even worse, I hate losing money when my gut is giving me that feeling to buy or sell and I go with my head and then I lose money! That feeling of my gut saying, i told you so to my stupid head.
It does not take an Einstein to see that making easy money off internet forums is too good too be true! Research takes a lot of time, and for a lot of amateur investors that is time they don't have. A lot of people come onto HC looking for that next multi bagger, but behind most of these threads are unethical rampers and criminals vying for new blood to take. They have no heart for the people that they are scamming, the marriages, friendships, lives that they are ruining. All they care about is making money!
I was a stock broker by trade at 21 years old, and was out by 24. It is a profession that steals your soul, takes away all ethics and uproots the evil out of most people. I am happy that when i moved away from this that I could use my experience to help others, to show you that nothing is by chance. Everything you see is calculated! From BHP to MMZ, there are no accidents. Fund managers play these stocks up and down and there is definately a co existing force that is bigger then anybody on here.
When I see a good company or a ST tradng opportunity, I tell people. And Vice-versa ie. This one.
The moral of this long post is that the stock market is not what most people see it as. It is a daily struggle for fund managers who are playing with portfolios of millions to gain the best return for their clients (who are usually politicians, CEO's etc, people that don't need more money!)As a small time trader (anybody with a portfolio under $150k) we have little chance to realistically ramp up or down a stock or have much of an influence of where MMZ's share price goes. This is all in the big boys hands and they are playing each and every kid that comes in to make a quick buck. Be very careful and always do your own research!
