Lets see who is the best investor here

I just started yesterday and I am up $615. 4/5 trades proffited, but I lost around $600 because I went short with Apple because I thought that they were going to go down a lot... I am playing really risky, going way above a 2% risk. Anyways what I am investing in Intel MSFT NVDA AMD GOOG AA Coke ZNGA EXC I am shorting Dell and CAT Update** I am now up almost $10,000. Suck it.

  • I wanted somebody to invent laser surgery or plasma weaponry or something cool like that. Like fire some DT plasma at people causing them to explode into gore which'd be cool...

      Forget simulators, trade for real and learn valuable lessons. Donald Trump has been bankrupt a number of times and has the tenacity to make a come back every time. The last stock I sold out right was bought at $5.40 a share and cashed in at $38.90 a share. It was a longer term investment and I don't really go for short term gains. If you want to do that just pony up and international currency trade as a day trader, easier money but far riskier.

    • I did an investment game as part of a financial management class in college. My portfolio was dogging it so I just sold everything and bought AAPL. I ended up doing good enough to get extra credit.

        OP lucked into the NFLX stock pop after earnings. OP should also diversify out of tech, lest he take a bath since stocks in the same sectors have a tendency to move in tandem. BTW, updown.com gives you a million to use.

        • A little bit over three years ago, I bought two hundred shares from Under Armour. Each share was worth right around 20 dollars back then. They are now worth 55 a share. I have made over 7000 dollars in profit off of that one company.

          • Google is falling off, and I think they'll be pretty stagnant until Google Glass is released. I'd probably invest in Intel once Haswell is hyped up. AMD and NVDA have some GPU's that are coming out soon, but look at the market. You have more people who care about bare bones processors than GPU's, not to mention the CPU and GPU are complimentary goods to begin with. I don't really see how you could go wrong with Intel if you time the investment right.

                  hate to break it to you. those stock simulators are not realistic market environments at all. On the fundamental level. also the fact that there is no real risk involved of losing your actual cash. So people end up throwing their money around with no fear. Tell me what your returns are on IRL cash and then we will talk.

                  The last time we played this game, on of my friends (game is fake by the way) invested 50,000 dollars. He came out with ~800% profits and with ~$4,000,000. I have no idea what kind of magician he is. To the point where our business teacher took him [I]out of the game[/I] because he was so far in the lead.
