I usually have cash flow to pay it when due. I never go deep margin. 10-15%.

Also I may margin out some stocks when the market is moving higher across the all stocks.
About 70% of the time my portfolio is growing. Times like this month not so much.

I've recently developed an interest in the stock market and want to start investing. But, I'm not too sure about the age requirements for opening an investment account and buying stocks. So, my question is: How old do you have to be to invest in stocks?

I don’t know if there is a limit. It should say on the application.

Some poor bastard gave up on life and made a 45,000x return on his investment:

I don't know the rules about all that stuff, though. If he was just some guy who happened to be in the Starbucks and heard two executives talking about it at the next table, is that illegal? What if he's some rank and file worker and the rumors have been running wild, but he's not in the process. I've always been curious about who is considered an insider and who isn't.

The chance of this trade being "dumb luck" is 0.0%
If someone bought 10 contracts, OK I'll buy that being luck. No one buys $22K of options that expire that far out of the money with a 2 day life cycle. They better flee the country and move the money ASAP.

S&P is near the 150 day moving average.
Let’s see if we get near the 200 and find support. |

IMVT exploded yesterday after holding it for 10 months. I went ahead and sold half right away and then set a trailing stop for the rest that also got executed. Should have put more wiggle room on the stop loss cause the thing has continued up today. Lesson learned. Still nice when you get a surprise 100% gain on something that wasn't doing anything.
Now if the rest could just rebound... |

Many like to call technical analysis "bullshit" but it's a way to have a little bit more information than guessing. It can be useful but it is never absolute.
Interesting that the S&P has shown support around the 200 day moving average in multiple consecutive sessions. Tracking that red, 200 day MA line currently, and on Friday really bounced up off that support. |

Bought ATVI at 75 when Microsoft was looking to buy them out. Sale just completed at 95. Damn I wish I would have loaded up

Good work King. I contemplated it, not that I could have committed much cash to it, but I figured Microsoft would have to back out because of the Europe thing.
