It's kind of more complicated than just gambling.
^^If you want it to be. What do yall think about JC Penny.
Invest in poverty, it's up 60% since 2001. (if you know what I mean...)
I hear AMZN and TSLA are going up. CRM too.
JCP was fine about a week ago. That big savings is gone, a ship is gonna bob several times before it sinks.
If you really want to gamble, buy some weekly OTM calls/puts on some stock that has earnings coming up. If you get it right, you could be looking at a 1000% gain. Wrong and you just lose all the money.
if you wanna "gamble" buy an out of the money call/put that expires on Saturday, on Thursday
Real gambling is more fun.
Are you 14 years old?
You guys are fucking lame. I just wanted some stock advice and got all this. Thanks rebelgt.
gamble half in options and put the other half in leveraged index ETFs. low risk, low fees, steady returns.
Put it all on FAS.
NFLX Puts
You might have issues with buying options with only 1k in your account. Most brokerages won't deal with you due to liability issues.
Listen to Jim Cramer, he knows what he's talking about. /sarc
Honestly, if you don't know technical analysis, don't know how to use a stock screener, you should probably just go play online poker. I can tell you good stocks to look out for, but I'm not going to call a trade. If you buy/sell a "good" stock at the wrong time, you could easily lose.
I've made calls here before, nobody seems to care. Do you have a 20 minutes to look through all the charts of biotech stocks (200 stocks)? Another hour to do research on why prices are up/down a lot.
I don't see much at all that looks great now. Buy into NFLX and TSLA, sure, great idea - very little downside. Everyone said the same when AAPL was at $500, 600, 700 last year. Analysts were putting out a $1,000 target! AAPL is now one of the most undervalued stocks, and still has one of the largest market caps. If you're eager to lose, do it anytime. If you want to make a few pesos, turn down the first 2 or 3 good opportunities you think you see until you find something better.
If you must be spoonfed, watch ENZY. It's a big bubble but there's a ton of volatility, so maybe you'll be able to ride the wave if it keeps going, or jump in after it crashes AND after it starts the bounce back up. But that's more of a day-trade. You could also try to bottom-fish but it's pretty easy to get wiped out, trying to guess the bottom.
I might've needed a $2,000 minimum to get the ability to trade calls and puts (only going long, of course). After that, there was no minimum balance needed. So, OP could just funnel in his rent money, keep it there a week until everything goes through, then take out that other $1k. You're not shorting puts or calls unless you have $25k probably.
You should put your money in a CD. You can't do anything with a thousand bucks other than get killed with commissions. Maybe dump it in a mutual fund,
Lol. C'mon guys this thread actually has potential. There are tons of fun stocks you could gamble on. Long crox, jcp, netsuite, twitter, maybe short tsla or netsuite. You could also try doing some research and betting in the opposite direction you think the stock will go.
I'm not a big options fan even as a gamble it seems dumb. Anyways good luck i guess. Also dont trade your gamble, buy and hold your gamble for real fun.
