Paedophile-PopeYou can't use a cash account to short sell stock because of liquidation....

SteezeOnStageWho is the fiend with the solar company investment?
.MASSHOLE.Anyone investing in biotech industries?
TheBigAppleYes, made a killing shorting them overnight.
TheBigAppleHaha -17% in a few hours...
The dangers of short selling against the grain.... tough to predict a stock popping from $13 to $19 on no news
MLJWhat the hell, I just got like 500,000$ for no apparent reason. Not complaining or anything, but its really weird cause it doesnt seem to show up in the rankings, but on my portfolio it says I have 500k
theBearJewYou holding Apple? I looked at some of the portfolios of those who got a huge bump, all have AAPL
MLJYa it was cause the simulator fucked up with the 7/1 stock split. 2nd place and the people who were likely to win are faaaar behond now. Pretty stoked i wemt aapl now.
theBearJewYea, the leader is at like 6 Mill. Hopefully they make a correction to it.
MLJThey corrected it for me, but the leader has tooons of $$$. fukdat
jensenYou guys who went up a ton on apple, did you short it over the 7 to 1 stock split? I am thinking if you did there was a glitch in the game that gave you 7 times more shares without recognizing the decrease in value.
Stupid, Mike Baldwin shows a 6,000% return in one day.
ParryWithAnARun the short game in penny stocks. For a game its fine but the trade costs, and fund restrictions it will kill any profit in real life. Also assume that any shorting (keeping stock less then a year?) will get taxed heavily under capital gains (20%).
Fuck the market put all your money into cats.

jensenThis died off quickly. I logged in today and was surprised to see I jumped up to 5th place. Anyone going in on GoPro? I bought some cause this isn't my real money. Also, I still don't understand how first place, Mike Baldwin, has over $6M in returns.
.vLeeRiding the GoPro IPO took me from mid 40th place to top 5. And the Apple glitch is wack lol.
theBearJewTook me to #2 from #11. Im happy about it. Where you think its gonna crash or at all? I actually own it in my real portfolio, trying to figure that out.
jensenI would either sell ASAP or hold for a longer period (> 1 year). There are two viewpoints in my mind:
1) The initial rise in price is pure speculation and will come back down shortly.
2) The price it is at is a realistic valuation of the share price and will rise with the performance of the company. I see GoPro's business booming in the coming years as a result of increased capital from this IPO.
If it was my money I would hold for at least a year and see where it is at. That is obviously assuming nothing big happens in the next year.
