Fellow fidelity bro.
## Speaker_1: ##
How do people deal with the commissions?
## Speaker_0: ##
Its really simple. You just dont be poor and your trade sizes are big enough that the commission isnt even noticeable
## Speaker_1: ##
I just don’t like the idea of getting shafted from the get go, when all I’m trading are wsb FD recommendations
## Speaker_0: ##
To each their own. I pay for a much better trading interface, ability to do all of my banking through their cash management accounts (including their 2% everything cash back credit card), great customer service, and security of having actual branches I can go into if I have an issue. If none of those things are important to you then I wouldnt pay the commission either if I was you.
## Speaker_1: ##
I have them too, I’m just dabbling in options havent traded much. I usually avoid their 4.95 charge by buying fidelity ETF’s

My wife is currently holding 500k in cash. Has been blindly saving in a 2% account for about 3 years now. She buys rental properties nearly all cash and thinks leveraged rentals are higher risk.
She absolutely refuses to do 5 year longs or any form of trading because her brother and mother have "lost it all" in the stock market. I badgered her for the last two years about playing long ETF's and force fed her a bunch of ETF propaganda. She likes to read fortunes and found out that this year I am supposed to make a huge financial gain and was ready to buy in but my losses this year evoked her mistrust of the market.
I realized too late that I married a high functioning autist. It physically hurts me that she is holding that much cash in a fucking savings account.
## Speaker_1: ##
Your wife is sitting on 500k and a couple income properties while you’re losing money... and you’re calling her an autist? Definitely divorce her bro... let some other sucker retire early and buy a yacht while you yolo on weedstocks until AMD hits 9000
## Speaker_2: ##
I'm slightly less autistic than /u/theocletian. I call dibs on his soon to be ex-wife. I'll encourage her to continue what she's doing. Its clearly better than w/e WSB recommends.
## Speaker_0: ##
I am being 100% serious for the first time on this sub. Let me list the things that she does to be able to save that money.
* Reuse paper towels. Yup, she hangs them up to dry and uses them over and over.
* She drove a Yaris until some guy hit her at like 15 mph and it totaled the car not because the impact was severe, but because the thing was just that worthless in value. Her car before that was a Toyota Echo that more or less blew up randomly.
* I did not know 1-ply toilet paper existed before I met her
* She has returned groceries before and gotten refunds
* All lights are out by 7pm right after dinner. She goes to bed at like 8pm which actually isn't bad because I can just play my computer games in the dark. But still, I have to use the flashlight app on my phone to walk around my own damn house.
* Always does taxes by hand. Maybe not that extreme to some, but I always use Turbotax so watching her do it manually makes me want to slit my wrists.
* Dollar Tree is her home base
* She fought me tooth and nail when I wanted to hire some people to trim the massive bushes in front of the house. I gave up and went to Lowes to buy some hedge trimmers to do it myself and I come home to see her out there with a fucking pair of scissors and one of those saw-blade style kitchen knives going at it. She made me return the trimmer.
* She was the greatest slave master when we did renovations to the house. I had bought the house before we met, but it wasn't in the best shape to begin with and as a first-time homeowner I wasn't exactly good at the upkeep. We did all of the gutting, cutting, flooring, painting, etc. ourselves for the entire fucking house. It took two full years to complete and I think I actually cried once when I suffered a really bad frostbite (or so I thought at the time) while patching a plastic covering over our 3-season porch window during the middle of a snowstorm.
* I had to keep the house at 50 degrees at night or up to 55 when we were active around the house in the winter in New England.
* I am actually somewhat autistic (self-diagnosed) and bought one of those weighted blankets. She made me return it and sowed me a blanket weighed down by what I can only assume are extremely old beans. She also patches my clothing which I appreciate since I only have like 3 pairs of pants.
I mean, it is a decent life but it was quite a shock at first getting used to living together.

You saw what happened today when Dow dipped 1600, it jumped 800 in a matter of 10 minutes.
If people sell into the 200D mass buyers will suddenly emerge itll go right back up. This is a super controlled selloff.
## Speaker_1: ##
Agreed. It's entirely algo controlled. The bots run the show
I'll be a buyer if it hits and bounces off the 200 Day MA....if it doesn't hold and still falls through? Good fucking night.
## Speaker_2: ##
Yeah I'm not going to pretend like I know how all the alto traders will act in aggregate, but there's a possibility where they will bounce off the 200D a few times but if it breaks the 300D then the models will sell like crazy.

You left out car loans - literally as bad as student loans
## Speaker_1: ##
implying i got time to make OC. but car loans are really that bad too? damn nothing is stopping this market
## Speaker_2: ##
I read an article the other day about how 7 year loan durations are 'the new thing'. My friends thought I was crazy when I got a 3 year loan because "your payment must be so high!" I ended up paying it off 6 months early. These people amaze me.
## Speaker_3: ##
One massively overlooked issue with those long term auto loans is what can potentially happen if the car gets wrecked during the final few years of the loan. The car can depreciate to the point where it's worth less than what you owe on the loan. If the car gets wrecked, insurance will cut you a check and you'll probably be left with debt and no car.
But muh lower monthly payments amirite?
## Speaker_4: ##
This is a stupid metric. Take the loan that minimises the total discounted cost of capital. If you can get 70 months at 0 % why wouldn't you take it?
## Speaker_5: ##
Because for most people longer loan terms increases the risk of irresponsible economic behaviour.
Sure, if you get 0% interest rate, have the cash in hand, put it in a savings account and use that money to pay of the car, then that's a great financial decision. If you spend the difference in monthly free cash flow on weed and iPhones then not so much. It's a behavioural problem, not an economic one.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Several \(3\) people I work with make about $15/hr and just bought new trucks for between $45,000 and $55,000. The "Risk of irresponsible economic behavior" is 100%.

"There is already an existing like-titled margin account. Federal regulations limit a broker's ability to maintain more than one identical margin account for each of its clients. "

Because people are selling. Come on man.
## Speaker_1: ##
but ppl are always selling!
## Speaker_2: ##
honestly its probably broad market profit takers that are triggering bots to sell which are triggering more bots to sell.
short $ROBO
## Speaker_3: ##
This is probably the most likely. Price action tends to make a trader say "ahhhh good run up, let me take some profits" a bot spots it and says "ahhhh the order flow that I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits" another bot spots that and says "ahhhh good, the bot I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits." The trader then sees the negative price action and says "Interesting...heavy volume selling through key technical points, let me sell" and so on and so on. I'm pretty sure if you did enough homework you could spot this more often than not, jump in on it, and profit on these surges (and make the effect worse of course).
Edit: Coincidentally I was listening to a podcast today where the people being interviewed said they have empirical evidence that this sort of price behavior started around 2003 and has been accelerating and getting worse. Tails on the price distribution are getting fatter, the mean of the bell curve is getting pulled higher, etc. What they didn't bring up (which occurs to me) is how if this is the case, then option prices are not in anyway reflecting the actual risk inherent in them and no one should be selling them for anywhere near the premium levels they're selling at. Here's a link to it, they start talking about it towards the end: https://www.trendfollowing.com/2016/07/07/ep-465-sunrise-capital-michael-covel-trend-following-radio/

Hollywood accounting can be pretty sketchy too, which is another reason to take the cash. They’re accounting practices should be fraudulent but for whatever reason isn’t. It’s on the scale of that they wrote off the entire LOTR trilogy as an loss. Every movie put them millions in the red according to their books. No idea how you spin numbers like that.
## Speaker_1: ##
That’s crazy, didn’t that movie make a fortune? I’ve always been fascinated by the whole concept of Hollywood accounting. Do you know any good sites that I could do more research?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It isn't that complicated in an example scenario, studios set up a dummy company for the movie, which contains the budget and marketing costs, and then studios charge that company ridiculous fees for distribution which means that they have to have way bigger box office than possible. So the dummy company loses money.
I don't know how it's still legal either, but its why in negotiations actors typically look for net points rather than profit points.

He would have profited from the transaction if the price for shares of the team fell.

That's the part that baffles me the most. This quote right here is quintessential Trump. I cannot think of a better characterization of the man than what is revealed in this quote...
Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

Such fucking bullshit he’s in a prison that housed a fucking mob boss and coke dealer. Fucking bullshit.
## Speaker_1: ##
That is where you go when you do "white collar" crimes. Even the federal prisons that haven't housed a major mob boss and coke dealer, if you're in minimum security you're basically in camp.
This was what I was told from a prisoner in the federal prison in Florida "If you're going to be a criminal make sure it is fraud or something like that, on the felony level. That way you're in minimum security and it isn't bad at all. You get conjugal visits, eat decent food, are kept away from all violent offenders, and there are no worries about being raped in the shower.
Shit, even if I could go back in time and change what I did, I wouldn't. I was surrounded by guys who spent more on a suit than the average fucker makes in a month."
## Walls1337bot: ##
Federal Prison doesn't for allow conjugal visits. Only California, Connecticut, New York and Washington have them.
## Speaker_1: ##
Thank you for clearing that one up for me. That does make it seem a little more like punishment than he was making it out to be.
## Walls1337bot: ##

That's actually kinda the point. War is about inflicting more damage than you take yourself, winning via attrition.

how about we dont damage either side? it's even easier than winning the trade war since you just do nothing and all is well.
## Speaker_2: ##
>your rival catches up to you since dont proactively act against them
>all is well
## Walls1337bot: ##
First of all, I am not sure what is wrong with the world equalizing as long as it is the poor countries becoming richer (rather than richer countries becoming poorer). The more wealthy individual chinese/indians/africans become the more they have to lose and the more they are interested in trade, IP protection, and freedom in general. Right now an average Chinese person is still incredibly poor. Their GDP per capita is $8.8k real, $16.7k PPP; a large part of the government support comes from the that people finally have decent apartments, plenty of food, access to some level of medical care, ability to educate their children, etc.. they don't have access to "luxuries" on broad basis.
Second, the current trade war doesn't actually do anything to create a differential between china/us capabilities. It simply harms both with little benefit. Do we really think US companies will have better access to Chinese markets, even if the Chinese government lowers their tariffs, given all the bad will this will garner from Chinese consumers? Boycott of American goods by chinese consumers is already a thing, and it will only worsen (it is also something you can't "negotiate" on a governmental level).
Third, one of the big drivers of the nationalistic and repressive power in CCP is the notion of "china being abused by imperialists" (sick man of asia narrative). Like the russian blame game, this allows the chinese government to focus on external enemies (the west), thereby continuing their totalitarian policy at home (thus China has internment camps with more than a million people being imprisoned without judicial oversight). By providing the CCP with a convenient boogyman, we are feeding their power and repressive capability.

The problem in my view is barrier to entry for most young people. Certifications and degrees are tantamount to waste in lieu of verifiable experience. We all know at least a few people that cannot break into industry despite their education and work ethic. Perhaps it's a lacking of apprenticeships, not internships, or the unwillingness of companies to outlay cash and lost productivity to train skilled replacements for their workforce. I'm not talking about breaking into heavily unionized industries like auto or utilities. Rather, I'm speaking about the skilled trades like plumbing, glazing, baking, butchery, heavy machinery, and trucking.
## Speaker_1: ##
Or people could just get an accounting degree and never be unemployed ever
## Speaker_2: ##
Yeah, until you start taking classes and you *hate* accounting. Then you can't bear to continue your degree while you have repeat existential crises because you don't want to have to do this boring bullshit the rest of your life. Then you become a history major because it's actually what you want to do, get great grades, learn a shit ton about the world, you graduate and of course, can't find a job in your field. Going back to school so you can get into education isn't worth it because you'd be making just as much as you currently do but with more debt because teachers don't get paid shit. So you scramble and figure out all these weird ways to make money on the internet while sitting at home on your computer on days you aren't working your day job. Then you start thinking "fuck... I still need more income to cover my own ass and pay all these bills" so you start investing your money and coming up with business ideas, all the while thinking...
"Boy would that accounting degree sure have come in handy right now."
This is *totally* a story I just came up with and not real life.

## Speaker_2: ##
it lasts like 2-3 days with no immediately noticeable or short-term side effects - if you really need to stay up, you take modafinil
## Walls1337bot: ##
You're mostly right. To add on: Modafinil lasts 12-15 hours and has lesser (not necessarily less) side effects because it has lesser of an effect than Adderall or Vyvanse. The peak is shorter than the full 15 hours though, more like 8 hours and trailing off from there. Armodafinil is basically a stronger and newer version that also lasts a little longer.

When Jobs first showed iPhone during the [Macworld 2007](https://www.engadget.com/2007/01/09/live-from-macworld-2007-steve-jobs-keynote/) on Jan 9, 2007, AAPL went from 11 to 11.75 on that day. The stock would rally to 15.5 by Jun 29, the first day iPhone went on sale, and would finish the year at 25.08.
The market's verdict on iPhone was very clear right from its beginning.

Aww shit is this why my portfolio is taking a midday dump? Almost completely recovered from last week too.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yep.
This is the equivalent to a fucking 5 year old who doesn't get his way saying "I'm taking my ball and I'm going home!" Guess you can't really have a council when everyone is jumping ship regardless. Note to self:. Always unequivocally disown white supremacists and the KKK.
## Speaker_2: ##
You can disown them 10 times and they still say you're not doing it sincerely enough. Or quickly enough. Or you were reading a script.
## Speaker_3: ##
The trick is to disown them at some point within 2 days and then to not reverse that specificity within 36 hours
## Speaker_4: ##
Reverse by stating the fact that Antifa and other leftist thugs acted violently as well just as we've watched leftists riot and burn cities to the ground over the past few years? This isn't about white supremacy, it's about power and control of the narrative.
## Speaker_5: ##
>Reverse by stating the fact that Antifa and other leftist thugs acted violently as well just as we've watched leftists riot and burn cities to the ground over the past few years? This isn't about white supremacy, it's about power and control of the narrative.
LOL
It's funny how you actually believe it's all crazed leftists that have rioted, and that cities have actually been burned down. Do you ever go outside?
## Speaker_4: ##
Oh sorry, I forgot. We're not supposed to remember Ferguson or Baltimore, or the cops that were murdered thanks to BLM rhetoric, or the violence instigated by protestors outside Trump rallies, or people getting hit in the face with bike locks etc... Leftists never commit acts of violence and when they do it's for a noble cause.
God how fucking brainwashes are you people.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Ah ok, so tell me then, since both sides are the same, *how many leftists murdered other people in Charlottesville exactly?* Seriously, give me a number.
## Speaker_4: ##
You're talking about a single event? Did white supremacists kill the person during the Ferguson rally? Did white supremacists murder the five cops in Dallas? It completely fucking idiotic to absolve one group of responsibility during the Charlottesville riot when both were engaged in violence only because one individual committed a worse act of violence.
## Walls1337bot: ##
And yet the context around this discussion and Trump's comments was about Charlottesville specifically.
And even if we expanded this discussion to be broader, it's funny how you've left out the many incidents of right wing extremists and white nationalists committing violence and murder against others. And it's funny how those numbers for violence are quite a bit higher than the violence perpetrated by the left. But it's convenient to leave that out, and you're not biased right?
## Speaker_4: ##
I'm not defending right wing violence, I'm criticizing the disproportionate outrage following right wing violence as compared to the outrage following left wing violence. The Charlottesville episode is microcosmic of the broader issue. People act as if the violence happened in a vacuum and to even mention the fact that leftists had any role in instigating it (in a reaction to speech they don't like) gets one labeled a neo-Nazi sympathizer. It's like we're living through the Cultural Revolution.
## Walls1337bot: ##
That's because of priorities. Sure, there are people on the left who are dumb and violent, but their *entire platform isn't the subjugation and violent extermination of people who are not like them*. And when the president of the United States says there are some "very fine" people in that group, that is fucked up. And let's not pretend various groups, including the government, doesn't violently suppress free speech on the "left" when they want to.

Wall Street is amoral in that if it's good for business, then it's good. Trump was fucking GREAT for business until then, at least in terms of stock growth, so WSB (the Id of Wall Street) was all about the "God Emperor".
Then he started doing unequivocally stupid shit, like sabre-rattling with North Korea, and more recently this tariff and trade war idiocy. These are bad for business, so now Trump is bad.

> “The cost to ship a one-pound package from South Carolina to New York City would run nearly $6; from Beijing to NYC: $3.66.”

You immediately look down and rebuy back in but 15 seconds have gone by and the stock now trades at $98. HFT just made $8 per share off you.
## Speaker_1: ##
I don’t understand what that means, does buying back in means setting multiple stop loss and canceling it?
I did not purchase back in any stocks in the middle, it is all stop loss orders
## Walls1337bot: ##
He's basically saying an algorithm can cause a $10 drop in your holdings for a few seconds. That drop will trigger your stop loss but then the stock could shoot back up seconds later. The aftermath of this is that you lost money and then you're buying back in without profits but instead with your remaining capital which is now lower than when you started (buying back in with losses). He's just illustrating that although you can save yourself from massive drops in a stock price with a stop loss, you can also shoot yourself in the foot with them as well due to bot trading.

Well maybe they should produced more. I would have happily bought one for my son months ago if they were in stock. I got him a used PSP instead and he loves it.
## Speaker_1: ##
Lol, they've been easily in stock for the entirety of the last year. Didn't even have to try hard to get one for myself or my nephew in the last year.
## Speaker_0: ##
Not where I went shopping.
## Speaker_2: ##
They were everywhere online. If you didn’t find one, you just weren’t looking hard enough, which is sad since you were looking for a gift for your child.
## Speaker_0: ##
I wasn’t. I was in the store and said hey if they have one I will get it. I did that 3-4 times casually (this wasn’t a high priority at the time). When the day came to get something I got an offer for a used PSP from a friend. Way cheaper and my son loves it.
## Walls1337bot: ##
"Sorry son, I tried like 3x and didn't even bother looking online or going on a waitlist, but hey, I got this used shit cheap so that's cool right?"
## Speaker_0: ##
More like “I’m not sure if I want him bringing a $300 system into school before I know he can be responsible with a cheaper test system.”
## Walls1337bot: ##
Jesus, do you pick your positions that way to?

subhuman date format
## Speaker_1: ##
Commie
## Walls1337bot: ##
Real men use YYYY/MM/DD
## Speaker_1: ##
Why do that when I can use Year/Week/Month/Day? Example: My FD expires 2018/03/04/21
## Walls1337bot: ##
What week does that represent? To me, putting 03 in the week spot means it's the 3rd week of the year.
Regardless, it's inefficient. Whatever week you're referring to, I can figure it out based on the month and day.

Haha yeah man get the fuck outta those positions. Take the 60k from AMZN and buy an investment property or something. Nice work dude!
## Speaker_0: ##
Where the fuck do you think you are? You can’t buy a property for anything less than half a million where I live, and that’s a lot of FDs
## Walls1337bot: ##
Imagine being on a sub that glorifies margin trading but doesn't know what a mortgage is.
## Speaker_1: ##
To qualify for a mortgage you need a steady income, not periodic $60k gainz and $80k losses.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I'm well aware of the requirements for a mortgage haha jesus christ guys come on

I thought it meant black man's wish
## Speaker_3: ##
i wouldn't wish a 7 series upon my worst enemy. shit will be in the shop monthly.
## Walls1337bot: ##
The 2016 was, 17-18 is more reliable.
## Speaker_3: ##
do you realize people have been saying that for 30 fucking years?
## Walls1337bot: ##
I have a 17 with zero issues, I've had six different 7 series. Only real problem I ever had was my 2016 had a major engine issue and they replaced it with an 17. Besides that only problems I've had is a lot of flats on the last 2 and thats a combo of being in NYC and them switching to run flats.
