Now on the other hand I'll BE DAMNED if there isn't something wrong with pompous negative people like yourself that root for the little man to lose.
People: "Hey, do you think I should take 10% of my wealth and put it in this slot machine? We can stick it to the casino owners!"

Me: "I mean, the game is rigged for them to win, but you do you."

(1000 posts go by with people talking about how the slot machines are about to go super hot and trying to convince everyone else to play, followed by the slots going cold.)

People: "Well shit, the slots went cold."

Me: "Well, what did you expect to happen?"

People: "WHY ARE YOU BEING SO NEGATIVE??"

Me: "So...are you going to stop playing?"

People: "No."

Sure I understand all of that, but at what point or timeframe was that sentiment exhibited here? I mean maybe I missed it, but I don't ever remember seeing any of that on this site.

Literally millions of people supporting a stock that has already cost hedgies (casino) billions isn't really comparable at all to a slot machine. If apes can stay patient, hold their shares and add to them when they can afford it has to pay out eventually.

That's why the hedgies have been paying news outlets and people on stock forums to spread FUD, and also manipulating the price through dark pools...they think we'll eventually crack and sell before they go completely broke having to cover.

Who knows, maybe they're right but I don't think so. It's become not only about making a lot of money, but principle and standing up for the little guy as well. Laugh all you want but this is a movement, not just a get rich quick scheme.

You know what?? Some of us were smart enough to take out our basis already and are sitting on House money to play this. Remember , it has already gone from $8 to $72.

Those of you not playing this slot machine may end up watching us dumbasses cash in.

I wonder if DaFace has ever bought a lottery ticket ,ever?

The rationale is that they’re volatile and subject to supply/demand factors that the Fed can’t easily control and that short term disruptions usually revert.
That is precisely what he was saying. I thought it wasn't a great look for the Fed to be out there shouting from the rooftops that there was no inflation - full stop - when the most affected people (paycheck to paycheck folks) were seeing their dollars only stretch 70% as far as they used to.

That's fair. And to be fair here, I'm not suggesting the Fed fix anything. I just think there should be better metrics and a more clear picture of what's actually happening out there.

Sorry, that came out harsh. I'm not criticizing you for playing around in these stocks. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone I know as I don't think there's any real edge you have, but if you've made money doing it, by all means, good for you. Buy your lottery tick, enjoy the experience and stimulation, and hope it cashes out. Nothing wrong with that.

It's when people start talking about "the hedgies" manipulating dark pools and spreading false information and "bear attacks" and all of this other nonsense. You're assuming you know a lot more about what drives these stocks than you do. And you're making the entire thing very personal when each price move you feel you need to explain on the basis of this narrative.

That's all. I've been a professional trader for nearly two decades. I've run a trading desk at a bank and have been a portfolio manager at a "hedgie" managing dozens of other traders globally.

Trying to personify price action is a slippery slope that isn't conducive to clear thought and good trading.

This is how I know you don't know what you're talking about. The dark pool price manipulation has been proven and even reported by the media. Do some research before you criticize.

Yup, never read Flashboys. Never heard of dark pool manipulation. LOL.

I'm sure that's really what's driving the meme stocks you're trading.

Not often, but sure. But I didn't make a huge deal about how much money I was going to make on it and then watch idly as my gullible friend put his life savings down on it.
